We turned a corner yesterday. I believe Brock is younger than the shelter aged him. He is asking to be pet now. He is walking around and giving a full wiggle butt when I walk in. THIS is why our company is named Wiggle
Butt Academy. We believe every dog can be happy enough to be a wiggle butt.

Some important heartworm facts from Country Creek Animal Hospital
Send some love to sweet Tucker who was rescued in 2023 and has now finished his last heartworm treatment!! ❤️🩹 He is doing fantastic and wants to remind everyone to get their monthly heartworm preventative especially as the Spring and Summer seasons approach. ☀️ 🦟
Heartworm facts:
1. Heartworms are spread by mosquitos which is why they are more prevalent in warmer climates
2. In early stages of heartworm disease pets may show no symptoms
3. Heartworms can be up to 16 inches in length and can live for 5-7 years in a dog
4. Heartworms accumulate in the heart and lungs and obstruct blood flow
5. Heartworm treatment is lengthy, costly, and hard on dogs so the best way to keep heart worms away is monthly prevention

He took all meds this morning from my hand so gently. He is such a sweet boy. Eating lots and drinking lots! Here he is taking some cheese while he learns that people nearby mean good things. Already getting some leaning!

Rottweiler Hearts Rescue A Rottie Rescue Inc. Please join us on Brock’s journey to health, happiness and a loving home. Brock slept soundly through the night. No accidents, barking or crying. He didn’t eat the steak we left for him so he is clearly feeling horrible. He got a bowl with his antibiotics and some lamb and rice food. Hopefully some sleep in a quiet, loving environment will help.

Worried that a behavior your dog is doing may be compulsive? Here's a quick read, a free behavior log and some links to a few other resources. When in doubt, track the behaviors using the free log and take the log and your pup to your trusted veterinarian.
What Is Compulsive Behavior? Similar to obsessive-compulsive disorder in humans, compulsive behavior in dogs is characterized by a constant repetition of behaviors that are not appropriate at that point in time and do not serve a clear purpose. The majority of the commonly displayed compulsive behav...

Love these resources!
We LOVE muzzles. They’re a huge part of safety and management plans for some dogs, and can be a great “safety net” while working through behavior modification plans. *NOTE: If you’re training your dog to wear a muzzle as part of a behavior modification process, especially for safety reasons,...

Do walks make you nervous because your dog can explode with barking and lunging? Let’s make walks fun again! If you have tried different things and none of them have worked, it could be because we need to address the root cause of the behavior. When working with dogs that bark and lunge on leash, we start by determining if it is fear or frustration causing the behaviors. Next, we use a strategy to address it. If you are treating the barks and lunges like it is frustration and it’s really fear, you can be putting your time into something that won’t likely work.

Who is going to win the Jackpot with Jack? We named him Jackpot when we pulled him in the nick of time from being euthanized at a high-kill shelter. He is a super well trained pup who loves to be with people. Know anyone looking for a running or hiking buddy?

My heart is so full. This boy struggles with strangers, and he accepted me with open paws on our first visit. On our third session, we have introduced him to two of our other trainers. Four humans and pup took a short walk in the park by his home. This is why this work is important - his family hasn't had visitors in years. We are looking forward to this changing for this sweet boy and his family. We are blessed to have such wonderful clients who understand that going slow is the fastest way to progress.
