We got her house broken in about 3 days. and has only had two accidents in the house.
She walks excellent on lead. She can be a little bull headed when she doesn't want to do something. (like get up off the floor when called) But I have her signed up for a obedience class. Where it is strictly praise and voice inflection training. And not driven off of treats and clickers. But all in all we have had her 3 weeks and she has improved tremendously!
Cana is a real sweet heart, all she wants to do is be right next to you. If i go into the next room she is right on my leg. I think she was neglected before because she is really shy sometimes, and didn't know what to do with toys at first and still doesn't with some toys. But we are building her self confidence up more and more! |
I have had several rescues and many of them have come to me not knowing how to play. It just breaks my heart!
But with consistent love n rules they learn.... My border collie never played with other dogs until the puppy arrived and now her entire attitude has changed!
Had I known she was wanting to be a mother I would have done it sooner!
( MY 15 YR BAUSSIE just gets herded by her haha) but they do come around
Have fun and I think this is why rescues tend to bond so well with their ppl.
