We rescued a dog today! He was a little too much for his owners to handle, so they returned him to the rescue organization just as we turned up to check out the dogs. He’s around a year old, and we think he’s a boxer/greyhound mix perhaps with some great dane thrown in.
He’s such a sweet dog, just needs some discipline. He knows how to sit and lay down, and he listens to us. We’re getting him used to the two cats we have now - he likes to bark and growl at them, but we have a gate that lets them run away upstairs away from him. They have had a few quiet moments around each other so I think it will get better soon.
No name, but I read that if you end the dogs name with a vowel you can kind of draw it out when calling and the dog will respond better to that sound. I don’t have a site but the book I found it in is in the library a little south of here. Next time there I’ll check it out. If the threads still open I’ll let you know.
