    His page on Petfinder is a little confusing - is he in Massapequa, or still with you? Because the rescue group is out of Massapequa it looks like he is there - the listings says he is - and I wouldn't want any potential adopters to think he's further away than he is!

    I know, that is the rescue that was willing to do the courtesy posting for me. Can't do much about it, it is the way Petfinder works. I 'think' is says Rhode Island someplace on there. I haven't been able to get anyone else to post him for me, have to take what is offered. Petfinder lists dogs based on the HQ of the rescue. It's always been tough for Small Paws Rescue as well, because it seems like ALL their dogs are in OK, when the foster homes are across the country.

    Freedom I know how you feel. Someone asked me if I wanted to take in a little mix dog - pug and boston I think but who really knows. I said okay because I have a wee terrier who lost her two friends a while back. It only took a few days to know this was not a good idea...this little thing is only 17 mos but she wants to be top dog at all costs. We've had a number of instances where she attacked our little dog viciously. Of course we got bit prying them apart. I've given her another week but if we don't keep a sharp eye on her she just goes off for no reason that we even notice. Our dog was eager to be friends but now she's afraid to move in case that thing gets her again, she's 13 and no match for the other one. When I told the people it wasn't working out they refused to take her back so I looked for another home but not one call for her. She needs to be alone but is the sweetest, most obedient, very affectionate and very smart little pup...I would love to keep her but my vet suggested euthanizing her if I don't find a home because she is terrorizing my dog's last years and she said it was unfair to put her through these beatings...she got chewed up bad a few times. the last thing I want to do is have her put to sleep, I'll have to send someone with her because I can't do it. No shelter will take her because they say they are full up and have to put some of those dogs to sleep.

    Oh Asiel, that sounds so stressful! I am sorry you too are going through this.

    You have to keep them apart. Keeping a harness and leash on the one dog will help get them apart without you getting bit in the process.
