mansbestfriend Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 (edited) Hi from Arana Hills, Queensland, Australia. It's good to see a strong culture of Positive Reinforcement and importance of reading a dog behaviour signals well. I fostered a couple of greys last year, and a few months ago adopted a nice 6 year old male "Max", who is still somewhat reserved but slowly sharing more of his 'inner thoughts'. Also have a 8YO KelpieXStaffie (work in progress) but she's a whole different story. Looking forward to reading through past and present threads about retired racers . Cheers. EDIT: Hoping the username isn't already taken. Edited September 1, 2015 by mansbestfriend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
