Thanks for asking. George is doing much better, but I'm still a long way from letting Dottie run free through the house with him around. He still gets a bit worked up when I'm trying to clean her "house" and barks a bit. I started to take him off the meds; he still paces but it's not manic...

Update: The medicine seems to be working. Initially, nothing --except it made him vomit frothy stuff a couple of times. Today, for the first time since his "mania" started, he was calm enough to play with toys and with my crazy terrier. He's almost his old, chill self. And, Dottie's molt is...

I have been trying to figure out why George, who has been happily living here for three weeks, is suddenly having anxiety issues. I took off his new rabies tag because I thought the constant jingling might be annoying my poor blind boy. That didn't seem to help. The problem, I think, is my...

They are adorable!

True. But, I've also worked with a couple of good ones. And, I've had the chance to love some wonderful dogs because of those groups. Since my boy's group was in no hurry to send me his medical information, I am in no hurry to mail back the contract -- or their check.

Thanks for the tip about Rescue Remedy. I've heard of it, but never before heard from someone who used it. I know people because they care about animals, and I've worked with some amazing rescues. They aren't all AMAZING, so I'm glad your story has a happy ending for you and your puppy. While...

My other rescue is a crazy terrier, so I was a little leery of getting another energetic dog. But, George is far from wild and MAY be a steadying influence on Dinah. Today, he is being his normal lazy-dog self. And, I am so grateful. I like the look of your yard -- a beautiful dog and a...

Thanks. I'm willing to try anything and everything that might work. I'm going to give the meds a day or two and see what happens. BTW, Weims might be crazy, but they are striking-looking dogs. (I used to be an inside ring steward for the local dog show and I always liked the looks of your breed).

Good news, I think. My vet believes that even though George is a pretty chill dog, the endless circling really is anxiety. Which is understandable since he's been moved around a lot -- wherever he came from, two rescues, a foster home and this -- his forever home. We are starting him on...

I am also hoping it is anxiety related and can be easily treated. He has been here for three weeks, and although he did the table circling a couple of times before, it only lasted for two or three minutes, not hours on end. I have worked with four other rescue organizations, including one...

Mostly, this will be a vent. I decided my rescue terrier, Dinah, would benefit from a canine companion to give myself and the eyeless cat a break from her need to play. I applied for a lovely, albeit overweight alleged cattle dog, who happened to be blind. Not a big deal in my world. I waited...
