Nikki, Benny And Friend – Playing

I had my new dog, Shorty, at the vet today. Shorty is doing so good. As mentioned before, she did come with a few issues because she has been at the pound for a long time.

She has NO issues with people, just other dogs. She has evem totally bonded with my 4 year old Golden, Nikki. They are now a “pair”.

I have been doing a lot of studying about training. I NEVER had any issues with any of my other dogs
(except two of my dogs were thieves…they stole all kinds of stuff from me, including pillows).

I am amazed at how easy it can be to address and remove issues that adopted dogs come with. I was always scared, and worried about adopting because of this reason. I am glad now I did. All adopted dogs (or most) come with some problem. And, they can be solved and dealt with. It’s not really hard. Again, I suggest the following:

- Watch Cesar Millan, the Dog Whisperer On National Geographic Channel. Just watch 3 episodes at the very least.

- Take your dog to a live trainer, at least for a few sessions

- Teach yourself to handle your dog … I use Adams Dog Problems as one of my methods.

And most of all. Add a lot of your own gut feelings and inspirations into the above mixture!

Shorty was at the vet (back to the story) and, I made her lie down and stay with a little puppy prancing and yipping about the place. She did great. She stayed!!! I was so proud of her.

I even left her at the “stay” offleash, although at all times I was within leash grabbing distance.

I am using Cesar Millan’s dog collar. It’s great! Anyone who has a dog that is difficult to teach to heel or difficult to control, try Cesar’s (And Ilusions’ – his wife) collar.

Anyway, just wanted to update you on how my Shorty is progressing.

Gosh, I still cry hard for my Dukie and Benny. The love for another dog can be instant, but it never replaces, it only appends. That’s what is nice about love!
ps I promote Cesar because I believe in what he does. There is no other incentive here for me

Dog Therapy Works Even Among The Dogs

We have had three dogs for the last number of years. These three dogs all basically behaved the same way, and they got along fabulously. When our 14 year old Dukie (a Black Lab) left us we got Shorty, a 3 year old Black Lab from the Humane Society. Dukie was 100 pound male and Shorty is a 55 pound female.An adopted dog was a new experience for me. I always believed that all Black Labs behave the same way. Wrong! Shorty did everything different from my previous three black labs. Shorty’s owner died, that’s why she was at the Humane Society.

We believe Shorty was owned by a more senior, apartment/condo living person. Shorty knew how to behave perfectly in the house. She was totally lost with our other dog, Nikki, a Golden Retriever. She was totally bewildered outside the home. (She was run down by a car after her owner died). She acted like she had never seen another dog or an outside life.
