  1. Dog Training and Behavior
    Please help me. I have two chihuahua mix rescues and recently took in a third dog (approx 45 lbs). The rescue was a street stray and animal control wouldn’t take the dog because they only take in aggressive dogs when the shelters are full. She is not crate trained and is not handling that...

    Is it okay to rehome a dog straight away? Found a dog on the road a few days ago. Brought her to the vet who said she likely escaped, was treated badly, and is malnurished. We spent some time looking but it looks like nobody owns her. Since she is a very cute pup, we were able to find someone...

    Hi, everyone. I am not new to owning dogs. In fact many years ago I bred Rottweilers. This is my first experience with a small dog. He is a 7byear old Yorkie. He's a perfect dog except for one thing. He won't think twice about going to the bathroom in the house. We walk him 2 -3 times a day...
  4. Dog Training and Behavior
    Hi, new here and seeking advice. It’s day 4 since my rescue bit me in the face. So far, I think the sutures and healing looks decent. Based on the photos I’ve found on Google search, I’m hopeful the scarring won’t be too bad in a year or so. I’m trying to reserve my judgement until the sutures...

    I have a Flat Coated Retriever mix and he´s 8 months old. He´s a rescue dog who had absolutely no rules and we´re having trouble controlling him. We´ve tried training him on a serious problem which is jumping on people because he gets too excited. He does a great job when theres treats around...

    Hi, My wife and I have been fostering puppy mill rescue dogs for years now. Every dog is different, but many of the dogs coming out of the mill are timid, scared, and distrustful and remain that way for a long time. I have read about clicker training (and used it a bit), but I wonder if...

  8. Dog Training and Behavior
    Hello, one year ago I rescued a 2 year old aussiedoodle from a puppy mill. Before living with myself and my 2 year old bernadoodle he had very little human contact, and was described as “one of the most damaged dogs the rescue has seen”. He is doing great, and slowly progressing. My problem is...
  9. Dog Training and Behavior
    We adopted our dog Rosie last year after a relative found her running loose in a local cemetery. No one ever reported her missing or claimed her when she was reported found. She is assumed to be a JRT/ Chihuahua mix. We believe her to be an escapee from a local hoarding situation that was...

    Hello! A couple months ago I rescued a Jindo mix (we adopted her through an organization that had saved her from a Korean meat farm). We think she’s mixed with a spitz, because even though she has the face of a jindo, she is very small. Smaller than our Alaskan Klee Kai. She is our first rescue...
  11. Dog Training and Behavior
    Hello all, I just adopted a five year old golden who had previously been in a hoarding situation. The dog is understandably extremely anxious, but has not shown any signs of aggression and is very quiet, I have had her for a week and the most noise she has made is whining. Obviously she isn’t...
  12. New Dogs and Puppies
    Hi, I was fostering to adopt-a-dog and in the process of getting to know her, I found that she had some behavior issues that I don't feel experienced enough to handle. I have contacted the rescue with this information and told her I can no longer foster. When I told her about the behavior issues...

    Hey Guys! I'm so happy to be a part of this forum with fellow dog lovers 😁 I have a 10 year old Shih Tzu and a 1 year old rescue dog from Bali. My sweet Bali rescue dog was very scared and confused when I first got her home. I gave her a routine, lots of love and tried to gain her trust - And...

    Hello, my 1 yr old, rescue boxer is easily distracted on her walks. I've watched the recommended videos, such ad Kikopup we practice indoors before going outdoors etc. She does great for parts of her walk, the rest is downhill. She is easily distracted and when she does fixate on something it is...
  15. Dog Training and Behavior
    Hello, this will be a longer post so here os the quick TL;DR version: rescue dog with unknown past is often afraid while on walks. I'm looking for advice on how to help her overcome some of her anxiety and enjoy herself. The longer version: she is not a puppy, but as mentioned, a rescue dog we...

    I adopted a gorgeous 1 yr old boxer / pit mix recently. She is great indoors, house trained and mellow. Whoever owned before must have kept her in a box because she is a different dog outside. Everything stimulates her. She pulls on her leash and her walks are feeling like a chore. Additionally...
  17. Dog Training and Behavior
    I've had Gretta (Pointer Mix?) for 5 months and recently she has started barking at me if I say No to something or scold her. It is different from random barking because she looks right at me and it feels like a demand or sass-back. Otherwise she is a very quiet dog. Her only barks are at me...
  18. Dog Training and Behavior
    Approximatly two years ago I rescued a 9 month old "american bulldog." Named Jade. breed is questionable, that's just what her paperwork says. She looks like a little pocket pit. When I brought her home, she was afraid of everything. EVERYTHING!. I couldn't even get her to go outside without...

    Hi everyone! I’m looking for some advice or other experiences about their rescues and getting territorial. My catahoula mix is 2 years old and I’ve had her for about 10 months now. She’s been absolutely amazing and all around has been a model dog. We have moved 3 times in the last 10 months and...

    So I rescued an 8 year old cattle dog/pitbull mix not too long ago. He’s an absolute sweetheart, until there’s another dog around. I was misled by the rescue agency about how badly he reacts to other dogs and how unsocialized he is. Whenever he’s able to see another dog he loses his mind; if...
