@cj Thank you!! Getting her used to being in the same room (leashed) as my resident (leashed) and take things slow from there.

@cj Sadly, the information was next to nothing so there’s been a lot of assumptions rather than knowing. This is our first herding foster! We’ve only had 1 before her which was another pittie mix, so at least we were more familiar with their temperament! The other dogs (from my knowledge) went...
