Case Study One:
Ranger is super smart, enthusiastic,
affectionate with people. Largely untrained,
he had had four homes and three long shelter
stays in his 6 years of life. He was 24
hours from euthanasia due to kennel aggression,
when he was placed in foster care with
this woman with no experience of dealing
with a reactive dog. Even though it has not always been easy, she has been able to improve this dog and has since chosen to adopt Ranger. More...
Case Study Two:
This dog was retrieved for his owner
with the help of a friend and the police.
The trainer told the owner late in 2001,
that he had been underweight, sickly
and had severe hair loss since the midsummer!
(more
and photos) She was appalled because
she had not been notified about this.
This was when she demanded the dog be
returned to her. It appears that the
dog was not in the care of a veterinarian
or the physical problems would have
been addressed and cleared. When the
dog was returned, they saw that emotional
problems that had developed while in
the care of this "trainer".
The dog has since recovered from his
ordeal. More...
Case Study Three:
This woman left her dog with a trainer.
After a conflict that arose over something
minor, the trainer threatened that she
would never see her dog again, and humiliated
her on his egroup where many people
who had met her were members. More...
