Cut Your Shelter Dog Some Slack


Great advice for anyone who has recently rescued a shelter pup! Reprinted from Dogster.com's daily dog tip.

You see her in the shelter, all big, soulful eyes, eager tail, floppy ears and gentle submission. But just get her home and she's the devil in disguise. Remember: you have to cut your new rescued pup some slack. Behind every shelter dog is a story of loss, struggle and survival. Which is exactly why you are rescuing her! You are her knight in shining armor. Just remember, it may be a few months before she can believe that she's in her forever home. Until then, you've got to give her time to settle in.
