my name is Josephine and I am a single person living alone with my two dogs. I have had both of them for 9 years and both are rescued though technically I "bought" Meg. Meg is an American Cocker and Barney is a Collie cross from Cardonald cat and dog home.
When I first got Barney he was in the true sense of the word a wild animal. He knew nothing at all about behaving. All he knew was bite, grab, steal and eat but I worked very hard with him. At a considerable expense I took him to a dog behaviorist who said to me "you really need to sort this out because this is not the kind of dog you can pass on to someone oOn the way home she stood up in the back of the car the whole way (she did have a safety car harness on) and she did a poo. When we arrived home I went into the back of the car and put my arms around her and said it's all right. She put her head on my chest and that was it. She was my dog and never looked back. Barney on the other hand looked for someone for about three months before he settled down and knew this is his forever home. For a long time Meg shook as soon as she met someone new and went behind my back to hide. She was especially scared of men and if your feet went anywhere near her she reacted as if you were going to kick her.
We no longer follow all the pack rules because we don't need them as such. Now both dogs lie on the couch beside me and sleep in my bed with me, Barney under the covers at my feet and Meg beside me.

Hi Josephine. I have 2 beloved Great Danes - Basil, 'The Gentleman', is 8yrs old. Poppy, my puppy, is 1 and a half. Both were rescues with serious conditions when they came. They are now beautiful as you can see from the avatar.
