Do Not Sell My Personal Information
This little guy is so cute.. came in to Vanessas shelter last week, was supposed to be put down because he's so miserable in the kennels and he's pulling all his hair out.

We're on the fence about adopting and or fostering him. Very sweet boy that just loves once you touch him

He smiles 100% of the time. My resident dog was very shut down and sad for a couple days but is now on with him around and tries playing with him.

He is such a a good dog and has to touch you all the time. He's sleeping almost all the time bc he hasn't in God knows how long, been passed around pound to pound for years at this point and was a bait dog initially.

We're having a really hard time with bathroom training. I'm taking him out every hour to pee but sometimes he'll pee immediately upon returning from the walk in his cage, and we can't figure out his poop schedule. We'll walk him for a half hour and nothing, and then he'll poop in the elevator on the way back up or in his cage.

He's so gd cute. He's so weird. He's interested in everything because he's been imprisoned/neglected for years, it's special watching him turn into a happy confident dog. Everyone absolutely loves him.

Unfortunately he's learned that he's supposed to go the bathroom in the kennel, which is really fucking tough to train out. Walk him for an hour and then poops within 30 seconds of being back in the kennel, he's just been waiting to get back to his bathroom.

It's been a nightmare but he's very lovable and we're doing everything we can. Out of 5 pees/poops he's done 4 of them outside today which is a miracle. Hope it sticks.

That's a great dog. I am sure he will be housebroken soon

Hang in there, be consistent and persistent. He'll figure it out. Our Bernese Mountain Dog had bladder control problems well beyond his puppy years which was frustrating for such a big dog. He got past it and and gained total control with patience and reinforcement.

I have no explanation but he's started figuring it out. At some point he learned that he's supposed to go in the kennel, so we'd walk him for an hour and he's being a good boy by not going, then he gets inside and immediately goes. You'd think really difficult to train out, but the next day he went outside 75% of the time, then had a bad day, then yesterday was outside every time.

The dog is doing tremendously well and the resident dog is getting better with him
