Advice on rescue
Try to keep it short
We lost our oldest dog 3 weeks ago. My boy Toby is sad. We got him as a puppy cause our older dog wasn’t great with older dogs.
No issues with either of them getting along. Now that I have one I am looking to rescue this beautiful girl pit who looks just like my Toby. She’s almost 2 yrs old. Toby is 3.5.
He has never had an issue with another dog, but he does get some leash aggression on walks. He acts like a complete terror and people are scared of him. I grew up with dogs in our house fighting over food and so I’m a bit scarred from seeing that as a kid.
This rescue doesn’t do meet and greets for the pets, so I would just have to adopt her and hope for the best. She seems pretty submissive and like I mentioned our Toby is a BABY.
Does anyone have any advice on them meeting and things I can do to make the process good for both of them. I really want this dog. I would be mortified if I had to bring her back to the shelter 😭
Toby self feeds and that needs to remain in place. I also don’t kennel. I don’t want to put her in one, but maybe I should for a bit? This is all new to me.
That what the shelter told me people have done before since they don’t do greets. Seems so odd, but whatever.
UPDATE- she was adopted today before I could go back!! Happy and sad! I guess it wasn’t meant to be. 💕
