Rescued Ratties Dog Blog: Lizzy Meets Salinas and Frodo
http://rescuedratties.blogspot.com/2015/07/lizzy-meets-salinas-and-frodo.html
Tuesday, July 21, 2015. Lizzy Meets Salinas and Frodo. Lizzy is a high energy gal who never stops moving which means that my personal dogs are not her biggest fans. Regardless, introductions went very well with relatively little snarking considering what a wild child she is. Frodo and Lizzy, keeping things civil by not making eye contact. Lizzy doing a good job looking away to let Sal know she doesn't want to fight. Stay tuned for Chima's introduction to Lizzy. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Merry P...

Rescued Ratties Dog Blog: July 2015
http://rescuedratties.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 28, 2015. Lizzy attended Rattiefest on Sunday and for the first time since we've had her she actually wore herself out. I guess two hours straight of running will do that to a dog. A rare photo of Lizzy standing still. And running some more. And running some more. Here she is on the left hanging out with the crowd and seeing if treats are being handed out. Dexter, formerly New Rattitude's Royal, and his dad Bruce during the "Rat Walk". And our sweet Rigby boy was there as well! While Lizzy ...

Rescued Ratties Dog Blog: October 2014
http://rescuedratties.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 28, 2014. Walking off the Wiggles. Tuttle is a busy little guy and when a person isn't entertaining him then he finds his own fun, which often isn't an activity I'd like him to be doing. He also will start to bug the other dogs, barking in their faces to get them to play with him. Don't get me wrong, he's a very sweet guy, but he's all terrier and can be a handful. Another leaf to sniff and bark to walk on. Checking out one of the many waste bins along the route. Along with all the sniff...

Fostering 101: Fear, Part 1: Your Dog Was Not Abused
http://fosteringratties101.blogspot.com/2015/03/fear-part-1-your-dog-was-not-abused.html
Friday, March 20, 2015. Fear, Part 1: Your Dog Was Not Abused. It is fairly common to hear rescuers and adopters of rescue dogs go on and on about their dog's history of "abuse." In this post and the next I hope to point out two things: 1, it is highly unlikely that your dog's fearful behavior came from abuse, and 2. even if it did you are doing your dog a disservice by hanging onto that label. Frodo always tends to be a little concerned about things, even in his own back yard. Fear, Part 2: Let Go Of Th...

Fostering 101: Fear, Part 3: Are you listening?
http://fosteringratties101.blogspot.com/2015/03/fear-part-3-are-you-listening.html
Friday, March 27, 2015. Fear, Part 3: Are you listening? Put yourself in the dog's place. You are really stressed out because you've been away from everything and everyone you know for awhile now. A total stranger comes up to you, gives you a giant hug and a sloppy kiss. Now imagine a small breed dog who gets swooped into the air by this person they don't know and held there, confined and trapped by a total stranger. It would be unnerving. So what should you be watching for? Yawning: Huckleberry is prett...

Fostering 101: Fear, Part 2: Let Go Of The Past
http://fosteringratties101.blogspot.com/2015/03/fear-part-2-let-go-of-past.html
Tuesday, March 24, 2015. Fear, Part 2: Let Go Of The Past. In the Fear Part 1. Post I talked about how what most people label as abuse is more likely to be underexposure/lack of socialization. In this part I'd like to talk about a few of the different ways that using the label of "abused" does a disservice to rescue dogs and tends to hurt, not help them. You can barely see Chima behind Troy in this picture with her tail down. She would approach from behind to sniff but wouldn't come close otherwise.

Rescued Ratties Dog Blog: Welcome Lizzy!
http://rescuedratties.blogspot.com/2015/07/welcome-lizzy.html
Monday, July 20, 2015. Lizzy, our new turbo-charged foster girl, arrived at 4:30 pm Sunday evening which gave us plenty of time for all the new dog chores. Lizzy waiting with Sparrow in the car for the final leg of their journey - the drive to their foster homes. Home we went and she immediately got a bath, which she wasn't too fond of. All clean and getting dried off. I don't think she's worn a collar much because she found that pretty weird and did a lot of scratching at it. Checking out the plant pots.
