sunluvr_1976 asked:


I would love to rescue a young, male, GSD mixed with something like a Rat Terrier. I already have a 6month, female, GSD mix that would love a friend. They would be mostly indoor and well trained. I feed Innova (large breed puppy) formula and WILL NOT breed them. I am also going to get them certified as therapy dogs when they are old enough. I spoil my animals (in a good way); we go to the dog park weekly and then to McDonalds for ice cream cones. They get walks everyday and lots of love treats.
I have a 1yr old cat who plays with my dog already and a 5yr old son.
I live in OKC, OK and am willing to travel but not too far.
THANKS!!!

I usually don’t go to the internet for help but, my friend suggested I give this a try.

I rescued a German Shepherd about 8 months ago, he’s 2 years old. When I went to look at him they told me he was a sweet heart, good with other dogs, and it seemed it.

He was abused before I adopted him. He started showing slight signs of aggressive towards my Bull mastiff and I let them know it wasn’t on and upped my leadership role a lot. Everything seemed alright, until my boyfriend started coming over more, and he started growling at my boyfriend , and then other people coming over.

I’ve started to muzzle him on walks, and when guests are over, but I don’t know what to do.
I live about 5 hours away from a city, and the one trainer I found prices were out of my budget. Is it anything I can do? Is it hopeless?
I’ve used her methods, and they didn’t work at all. He’s not trying to protect me either, it’s fear based aggression.

Hello, my family is looking into adopting a chocolate labrador retriever. We live in NJ and are willing to travel anywhere in the tri-state area to find our new family member. Can you guys please tell us where we can find a respectable labrador retriever rescue in NJ, NY, or Pennsylvania. Thank you.

George J asked:


I am a first time dog owner and I am planning to get one of these dogs from a rescue. I think that rescue dogs are trained somewhat and need a loving home. I am financially ready and any one of these dogs will get plenty of excercise. I am looking for a good watch and protection dog. So which of these types would best fit for a family dog. We have no children under 16 in our family. Thanks for your comments.

Bill Brasky asked:


My puppy is a 9 mo old black lab. He is malnourished, not house broken, overly protective of me and my property, and won’t play nice with other dogs. How do I get him to relax in the house, and play better with other dogs.

A colleague has asked me to take her friend 3 year old black labrador… free of charge.

It has not been wormed, chipped or spayed or had flea treatment

However an interferring colleague said that I should pay for it seen as I am rescuing the dog. But I thought that if it is a pedigree, it should have all those things done to it as standard.

Am I wrong?

My one year old male labrador is about 65-70 lbs. What will his mature weight be? I adopted him from a rescue group so I haven’t got a clue about the stock he comes from. Is he big for his age, small, or about right?

LadyD asked:


We just adopted a GSD from a rescue and the day we brought her home we noticed that she was spotting. We want to get her spayed as soon as possible but I have read that it is better to wait until her cycle is finished. How long has your GSD spotted for? And what are the pros and cons of not waiting to get her spayed while she is in heat?
