@caughtup I will feed her in mornings before I leave for work, but that is just me putting her bowl in front of her. She trusts my wife enough to let my wife feed her from her hand. She definitely doesn’t trust me enough for that yet. The only time I invade her space is to take her outside to go...

@gunslinger3 Will definitely ask about that. When we took her too him for her initial visit , we mentioned how much anxiety she has and he stressed he didn’t want to alter her brain chemistry if we didn’t absolutely need to (which we wholeheartedly agree with). That was a month in to us having...

@gunslinger3 She really won’t come to me for cuddles whatsoever. The times I do pet her while is in her crate or on my wife I will pet nothin her head and under her chin. I have read that many suggest doing under the chin but it feels awkward if I’m being honest lol. When I put her on the head I...

@gunslinger3 Harsh comment, but I can understand how you could misinterpret that based on how I worded it. Let me make myself perfectly clear, I love her to death and will do anything as her owner to make her life as best as I can make it, hence why I am asking for advice on this app. My number...

@kimmarqy Have not spoken with any trainers. She is a 20 pound mix, so she is on the smaller side. To be honest, I didn’t know what a martingale collar was until I googled it a minute ago. I don’t know that we would go that direction only because she might just keep going even with the pressure...

@juliekl Thank you, my wife has been the one hand feeding her as she struggles to eat her food herself. She will bury her bowl under blankets if my wife doesn’t hold her and feed her. I will start to integrate myself into doing that more, she just doesn’t not feel comfortable enough to allow me...

@haplotes It is truly sad and downright agitating what some people will do to innocent animals. I’m so happy to hear your pooch finally got a loving home, and I’m hoping that in time we can do the same for our girl. I am very happy she can atleast be herself around my wife, that’s half the...

@jeffp That makes so much sense, especially the part about lying down. Just this morning I woke up and both dogs were sleeping next to me in bed. While our male was excited to see me awake, and was loving up on me me, she would sniff my hand and give little kisses to it as I pet him, then would...

Hi all, In November of last year my wife and I rescued a dog from a high kill shelter. This came a month after our 18 year old cat passed away. For context, we have 2 other cats still alive(18,16). When we brought her home, she immediately seemed refuge in the crate we got for her which...
