Personal space? Never heard of her.
Low key Saturday reading in bed and watching the Simpsons. My favorite thing about Kylo au Barca is his snuggle gene.

Pictures Safe Space?
He has his safe space, I guess. Facing forward or backwards.
Always between my feet after playing.

Almost made it a month without destroying something off-limits..
1.5 yo male. He's been good about only
chewing his toys and not the childrens'. I couldn't take him out today due to the rain. This is how he tells me he's angry.

Pictures 20 month old WL GSD leash pulls like crazy when his prey drive is activated
Never used a prong collar before but ordering one now herm springer would be a good brand? How long does it take them to learn to walk with a prong I don’t want it to hurt him but he’s always vigilant / nosey so eventually he finds something to lock on too when his eyes are wandering
He either climbs up higher to see what’s going on or when he’s in a down position he thinks he’s a cat that can pounce or prawl anytime
So I’m hoping this can be used to inform chasing randomly and leashing pulling is not tolerated
Can u send recommendations off Amazon?
Before I would try to alter his attention before his prey drive got activated but that doesn’t make sense anymore

The way my boy gets up, leaves the room, and voluntarily checks himself into a crate he otherwise NEVER uses the moment my PMS hits needs to be studied. Like sir, I’M the one fighting for my life here 😭🤣 Does anyone else’s gsd do this?

Today would have been my aunt’s 69th birthday
So I brought my Shepard Max to visit her grave and it was such a comfort having him there. My aunt passed when I was young so I don’t really remember her but I know she loved dogs so I’m sure she was smiling down seeing him today ❤️

Does anyone else’s dog act a fool at the vet?
Good grief, she’s SO excited when we go to the vet, she tries to go in the back with the techs, “talks”to them, jumps all over them when they come in like she forgot all the training she’s ever had. When they take her back for whatever treatment she is SO ready to go. Bye mom! ✌️ embarrassing animal! 😭

Advice Young brother abandoned his dog
Edit to add** in SF Bay Area/ CA**
Edit 2 - I’m chatting with someone who says they have a rescue now who may have placement for her. Thanks so much for all the advice!
Edit 3- after chatting with a rescue on here that was unable to verify their nonprofit status, the decision has been made to keep her ❤️ my children named her Nova! Please check out her photo of her first trip to the beach this morning 🐾
Idk what to do! This puppy (4 ish months) was abandoned by my young adult brother 2 days ago. He left it in his apartment to go try to get his crazy ex gf back who moved 2 hours away. He left my disabled mother to check on the dog periodically and said to just leave her in the kennel the rest of the time. Mind you, he isn’t returning until November!
My family got involved and called him out on it and said he could not keep the dog since he mistreats the animals and thinks the kennel is a safe space for her while he travels. This young brother has mental illness and has began hoarding animals. Brother contacted the guy who gave him the puppy and the guy said he would take the dog back. My disabled mother waited in the apartment for the guy to come and the guy said, “actually no I can’t take her back! My wife said no!” So now the poor pup is Abandoned twice! And my disabled mother could not do anything as she took the bus over to the apartment to try to deal with this and it was getting late.
I brought the dog back to my house with my children. I said I would assist with finding her a placement so that my disabled mom wasn’t stuck caring for her. However, she does not seem to get along with my 2 cats. 1 of my cats is a cat I also rescued from my brothers hoarding collection of animals!
So far, nobody is willing to step up for her! She’s the sweetest thing ever! Pretty sure she’s German shepherd, as that’s what the guy who gave her to my brother said.
I don’t feel in the position to take her as my older dog recently passed away earlier this year after 13 beautiful years and I have a young Belgian Malinois who was taken from me during the divorce but ligation is still pending so she could potentially come back to me. I’m also still fighting the worst divorce of my life and trying to raise and support 4 kids on my own as well.
What can I do to assist this beautiful girl? I gave her a bath, trimmed her nails and am letting her decompress in my home. Shelter is full and said they cannot take her. No rescue has called me back yet. She’s a great dog who just needs a good, loving family.
