This has taken so long with her. Is this normal? I hope for a little extra guidance from the members who have dealt with such a fearful dog.

Mandy's Rescue and Path to Trust

Rescued German Shepherd dog with history of physical abuse. She started out very nervous, pacing frantically in my presence, using avoidance. In the two weeks time, she graduated to taking food out of my hand while I scratched her chin with the other hand. She was starting to target. Then it all changed. Puppies came on March 3rd. Without going into full detail on what the next 5 weeks held for Mandy and my relationship, I'll tell you that is was one of the most difficult times I have been involved in...

Help, my dog won't go outside!

I just adopted a rescued puppy from a local animal rescue, its a golden retriever named Sonny. He was abused as a puppy and so is very afraid of my wife and I, but we have only had him for a day so we hope he will get better. One of our main concerns is getting him to go outside, he refuses to go outside, and unfortunately we have not been able to get too close to pick him up or anything. Does anyone have any advice?

It's getting better ....
