Sienna, NPC,- CGC Adopt a homeless- dog     Barked: Wed Jun 1, '11 12:42pm PST  We have to move and do not have the money to buy a place yet (hopefully soon). So we must rent for at least a year. We need some tips on getting people to rent to us because Sienna is part staffie. We have had her DNA tested and she's only 25% staffordshire but looks like a small pit bull. She's got her CGC and she's 11 years old. I mean, hardley a threat. I can get character references for her. But for a lot of people it's the insurance companies. I need ideas for how to get around this and get a place that she'll be allowed! She's the sweetest dog! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Sienna, NPC,- CGC Adopt a homeless- dog     Barked: Wed Jun 1, '11 12:39pm PST  My dog was told she is a pit bull but we got her DNA tested and she's at least 25% or more staffordshire terrier. There is no test for pit bull. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Choosing the Right Dog > How can I get people to look past my appearance??

Sienna, NPC,- CGC Adopt a homeless- dog     Barked: Wed Jun 1, '11 12:37pm PST  I would say for sure work on good training skills. If you can get a CGC (canine good citizenship) that would help a lot. You can get badges to wear for that too. Mom likes to dress me in pink which softens my image a bit. When I was younger people thought I was meaner because I pulled on my leash. When I learned to listen well people never assume I'm a bad dog. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Rescue, Adoption & Happy Endings > dog left to die in snowsnow needs home (NY)

Sienna, NPC,- CGC Adopt a homeless- dog     Barked: Thu Jan 13, '11 2:45pm PST  saw this on a blog and I am passing it along. "This morning, as a buddy of mine drove to work via the Williamsburg Bridge, he noticed something: a small gray dog chained to the pedestrian walkway, shivering, completely drenched and half-frozen. As you probably heard, New York had a very big snow storm last night; we’re almost certain her owners left her out in it overnight to die." read more: http://www.scoutingny.com/?p=3358 my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Rescue, Adoption & Happy Endings > Questions about rescues!

Sienna, NPC,- CGC Adopt a homeless- dog     Barked: Wed Sep 15, '10 9:40pm PST  I'm pretty sure I've seen deaf pitties on the Best Friends site. Worth a try. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Sienna, NPC,- CGC Adopt a homeless- dog     Barked: Sun Sep 12, '10 7:45pm PST  Why can't you take your dogs with you? Sadly this is the reason so many dogs are put to sleep. Don't trust your friends to be able to keep them permanently. I saw a pup at the shelter who had been given to them after friends moved and they gave up the dog after just a month. You have a CHOICE whether to move somewhere that allows dogs or not and the responsible thing to do is NOT move there if your dog(s) can't come. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Rescue, Adoption & Happy Endings > how to get over it

Sienna, NPC,- CGC Adopt a homeless- dog     Barked: Sun Sep 12, '10 7:41pm PST  We were looking for the type of dog that probably wasn't the best for us, so this foster was a blessing in disguise! Problem is it is so hard to try to judge a dog in just a few minutes of meeting them. Going with an organization who could give us more info and just trusting them to know us was the best idea. We are going to adopt our foster, hopefully will be settled this week and then going to make a dogster page for her. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Behavior & Training > Owners of fearful dogs: Is it a relief for you when you meet someone who has a fearful dog too?

Sienna, NPC,- CGC Adopt a homeless- dog     Barked: Thu Sep 2, '10 10:05pm PST  I haven't had a skittish dog but I never assume all dogs are friendly. I have watched skittish dogs and you have to be careful. We have a foster now who has lots of fears so I get it. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Sienna, NPC,- CGC Adopt a homeless- dog     Barked: Thu Sep 2, '10 10:04pm PST  great ideas! I asked the groomer at petco for advice on which brush to get. So far she likes being combed so I am doing a bit each day. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]
