wow! Take it very slow with her .... she has a whole new life to fit into , and is carrying all sorts of baggage ... I presume she is still very young? Hopefully she will grow into a lovely and happy girl under your care ! She looks SO much better now :) -
if he is getting worse ...then perhaps there is some physical thing happening in his brain ... but to find that out needs more testing/scans etc . its at times like this it would be so good if they could talk ..and help us find the problems - and he certainly sounds one unhappy and worried boy I would strongly suggest you start using ADAPTIL in some form , just see if it lessens some of that anxiety at all ? maybe even spray some on your clothing as well ....

I'm The Luckiest/unluckiest Person I Know
persephone replied to mfch's topic in General Dog Discussion
LOL ...... what a morning - and yes, I agree - lucky-VERY - and well.... maybe not unlucky - but educated a bit more :p -
Hopefully it was just something nasty he had .... no more diarrhoea is good! Just give him mouthfuls of water, often ..or the mere weight of a decent drink may make him vomit - and dehydration gets a hold

Training Puppy To Be Calm With Kids
persephone replied to Mayonegg's topic in Training / Obedience / Dog Sports
Hi - your pup is a teen - and is loving having these new toys!! I would suggest at first , not allowing any mistakes ! This can be done keeping pup away, by using baby gates or , if he's crate trained ..use that way :)..or have him outside ? Also - have him lying on his bed, on lead ... In your daily training , practice lots of lying down/calm behaviour with him , too :) CLICK HERE for some useful info : you might also find some tips if you CLICK HERE -
yes...how old is pup, and how many vaccs has it had?

He may have had one of the VERY nasty intestinal bugs - HGE, or parvo ....... I do hope it wasn't a bait. What a terrible shock for you . Take care

Digby's Adventures In Ice Cream Land

Happy man :) -
Except then you are deliberately triggering the dog to aggress. Not something I'd recommend. can't it just be done with an iPhone as it happens? I certainly do NOT mean to set up a situation - apologies I just thought that if/when it happens next -and there is no imminent danger - they whip out a phone camera and video some seconds worth or something ....
-
. as said - you need serious "first time , ONLY time" advice . Steve is my first thought - at least contact him by phone/email , and ask his opinion . He may know of someone suited to your situation - but, yes. if you can wrangle it - he has the experience and expertise for all things aggression and large dog . Oh- video some of the behaviours shown ... that is such a good thing to show professionals with whom you are dealing . !! edit to add this does NOT mean setting up a situation !! I just thought you may grab a few seconds worth if/when it happens ... sorry for any confusion ...

Gorgeous shots . What a shame it will be removed You had an encounter of the UFI kind ;) Unidentified flying insect :)
