One of our dogs is a shelter dog and the other was given up on by it's original owner, but never made it to the shelter.
Both of them required training and care beyond what most people are prepared to give.
I love my dogs, but if I could have avoided the training to get them to where they are now I would have.
Yet if we adopt another dog it'll likely be from a shelter or rescue.
- drewmol 8y agoIME having other, well trained dogs around as part of your pack helps immensly when training a new addition so hopfully this gets easier with the next. Note this can work against you as well... I still remember the look of "oh shit, we can do that?" on (new rescue) Halo's face when Layla eagerly leaped the 5 foot fence twice in order to retreive a frisbee that had landed in the neighbors yard!
