    Hi Everyone :) I am in need of your guidance...this may be a long post... My husband and I rescued Lady (Sharkness Everpuppy is one of her many nicknames lol) She is a 30 pound herding mix. We also have Bones, our 7 year old male Doberman. She came to us from a HORRIBLE unhealthy "rescue" at...
  2. General Dog Forum
    Just thought it'd be an interesting question for those who have owned both reputable breeder dogs and rescue/shelter dogs. Obviously this depends on the individual dogs but I thought it might be interesting. Which dog/puppy was easier to gain they're trust? Which dog/puppy was easier to train to...
  3. Could my rescue be a coydog?

    Anyone that has experience with coydogs! My puppy is about 9 months old and I adopted him in Albuquerque, New Mexico. His energy is truly endless. At four months old I took him on a four-hour hike and he didn’t stop once. He wasn’t even tired when we got home. The older he gets, the more I...

    We rescued an intact 2-3 year old female Gordon Setter. I don't know many of the details of how she was kept, but when we got her a month ago, she didn't know how to be a dog. My understanding is her life was pretty miserable. We had to teach her basic commands like 'here' and 'sit' - we were...
  5. Dog Rescue Forum
    We rescued (well, the family asked us to take him) a VERY good looking pug, Frank. We have now had him a year. To be fair, they asked us to take him because the wife was SUPREMELY allergic. What I think the issue REALLY was is because he marks. CONSTANTLY. I'm still working on that. I've...
  6. Dog Grooming Forum
    Hi, I’m not a groomer but I’m a licensed cosmetologist with a hatred for humans and a love for animals. I have a basset hound that I rescued and she shakes and screams when I try to trim her nails. She’s terrified of strangers, like she will NOT deal with strangers, so I can’t take her to a...
  7. Dog Pictures Forum
    I have a rescue dog from Crete and am interested to know what mix of breeds he may be. The picture of him sitting down is him at 14 weeks old where he weighs 7.4kg. This is purely out of interest! Any ideas welcome!
  8. Dog Rescue Forum
    Hello all! Yesterday we brought home (rescued) a 2 year old purebred Black Lab. We got her out of a situation where she was given to a man with far too many dogs and didn't take care of them all. We have a kitten and a 6 year old Yorkie who loves other dogs. He was bonded with my 11 year old...
  9. New Member Introductions
    Hi! New to the site :) I adopted the sweetest Dachshund Lab mix a little over a year ago. I was mainly taking her on two fairly short walks with my senior Doxie to build a little confidence, and one really long walk/run just her and I. For a long time this was working great. She was gaining...

    My dog is a 5 year old German Shepherd and I love her to death. I’ve had her for 4 years now, but I have to leave her with my parents as I go off to college. She’s lived with the three of us, and won’t be switching homes so it’s not like this is going to be a big switch for her. Well, minus the...
  11. Dog Food Forum
    Hi dog lovers, We got our dog from stray.gr 2 months ago. He is a boy, 7 years old, 35kg and practically lived all of his life in a private field with other rescue dogs with the same volunteer. The problem is his stool. It is soft 95% of the time. We did a thorough run of blood tests and took...

    Hi, I just adopted Patch who is 10 weeks old. He's a rescue and is very quiet and fearful. He just lies on the bed all day and only gets up to relieve himself. He doesn't play and is not active at all and sometimes gets a lil aggressive when pet. He does eat very well though. I would love some...

And also, in advance, thank you for any help you may be able to give me!! Ok so here's the deal, about a year and a half ago my fiance and...
  14. General Dog Forum
    I just adopted a dog a week ago, and was told she was very quiet and calm. Turns out she has lots of anxiety, even as she's settled in a bit, and now barks at anyone who comes to the door or comes over. Post-pandemic I'd like to have more people over, so I'm very concerned about this behavior. I...

    We have a female border collie who is a marker. We have had her for a year now and she refuses to be housebroken. We have tried clickers and treats, frequent walks, ignoring the indoor peeing, scolding her when caught in the act.. nothing seems to work. She will not show me that she has to go...
  16. First Time Dog Owner and Basic Questions
    Hello there, I recently (as in 2 weeks ago recently) adopted a 5 year old pitbull. He's a great dog and super easy to train, except when it comes to potty training and kenneling. First and foremost, he will only poop inside, never outside despite me taking him on 4 long walks a day. It doesn't...

    Hi, I’ve adopted a 1 year old german shaped husky mix yesterday. Super gentle dog, leaves himself vulnerable around me, is sociable with visitors (he barks at them until they approach him). he’s making progress with basic commands and leash walking. what worries me though is his guard dog...

    Three dogs. Female chow chow cocker spaniel is calm and likes to be left alone. Gunner, 2 1/2 year old male mutt rescue, had him for 2 years, always wanted to play with female and she started getting irritated, decided a playmate would be perfect for him. Almost 2 year old male mutt rescued mid...

    hello, I’m looking for help for my rescue dog who is ~1yr old. She was born in a dump yard in Taiwan and never had any owner before us. She started out terrified of everything, every noise, every person, everything, except our other dog. I developed a bond with her through play and food mostly...
