So pleased to hear that success storyA shout out to Miss-Shelf and all others who a few weeks ago gave encouraging feedback about using a dog behaviourist. We decided to go for it and had the first half of the training today.
It’s made a massive difference already The guy was brilliant- it’s amazing how things as seemly simple as body language, eye contact or positioning around a dog can be so effective. Even after he left. A friend who was the first visitor after we got the dogs, and was relentlessly barked at for most of the weekend, came by this afternoon and was only very briefly barked at for a minute or two after she rang the bell, and for the rest of the visit the dogs were as happy and chilled with her in the house as if she was one of us.
Lots of homework to do and significant obstacles yet to overcome (the whole barking on sight to other dogs being the final boss fight), but so fucking happy we went for it.

Hope you’re the right fit for each otherI’ve applied to rehome an OES today. 7 month old boy. He’s nervous so Mr Looby thinks Humphrey will be too much for him.
I really want him, there’s a sheepdog shaped hole!

Presume he was poorly treated in a previous life. Do you know his back story?This is Taco. He’s scared of walks, loud noises, the vets and he doesn’t know how to play with toys yet. View attachment 381809

Is Ted missing teeth? Or are dogs teeth like that normally?
