I have received a lot of requests from people to either take their dog or to come pick up strays that have been dumped. Even though I train Police service dogs, I do not board dogs. I have helped agencies find dogs from time to time, but to take one in or to board dogs puts my dogs at risk of catching something. I am very honored that people have thought of me for help, but please understand I cannot take them in. I know folks think that any dog can become a Police service dog, but only a small percentage can pass the tests of confidence, courage, and stable mentality . With this being said, it does not mean your dog is a bad dog, but rather one that needs a different type of training or maybe owner training to understand the dog's needs.
I, like you, have very little need for those that have a dog and don't take care of them or dump them once they get bigger.
Please understand I cannot save every dog someone finds or no longer thinks they can handle. You can contact me for help in training them and maybe you will see that your dog is yours and all they want to do is please you, but you must first understand what the dog is telling you and then you can show them how to please.
Thank you again for understanding and reaching out.
Please feel free to contact me for training.
KEEP YOUR BEST FRIEND COOL WITH PLENTY OF FRESH WATER. Bless you
