Not exactly a dog thing but it's family....

My sister is rehoming her 3yr old Rex bunny. She's been raised indoors and around kids. She does freerome when they are home and in a pen with her cage when they are gone. She has not been around other bunnies since they got her so she is not sure how she would do with others.

She is rehoming because she's expecting her third baby so life is going to get busier than it currently is with the older two.

If you are interested please message me and I'll pass it along to my sister.

TIA

I also have my two boys Hobbs and Kai.

I couldn't post videos and pictures together so here they are....

Hobbs is my "can I go mom?". He's my social butterfly who loves all the attention anyone will give him.

Kai is my old man 13-14yrs old, living his best life.

I love all my dog's! They each have their purpose for me but B has a special place in my heart. She's such a spicy girl, some say like her mom 🤷‍♀️, whatever that means 🤔.

B is my ride or die, working girl, cuddle bug (which many don't get to see) who will always choose violence with others 😂.

She's taught me so much and I'm forever thankful for that.

Let's talk about realistic expectations. I get a lot of calls regarding dog aggression, leash reactivity and so on. I also hear ALOT of "wants" from owners and these dogs. Wants that are not realistic for most dogs in this situation.

True dog/human aggression can not be fixed it's a management life style. I know, I live it daily with my female Malinois, B. Now, early on I fell into the "oh she will learn to like other dogs or at least the ones she lives with". Nope. I've had her 3.5yrs now and she still has no desire to be around her own house mates.

The past 1.5yrs has been a great set up for my lifestyle. I've had a kennel separated from my house. So B lives there and my other dogs have lived at home. She works with me pretty much daily and she's happy living upstairs in her own apartment, lol.

Now, our lives are about to change drastically in the upcoming months as we prepare to move. Not only a new house but a new state. So I have to think and plan ahead to make this move as smooth as possible for the dogs. B especially. I now have to make sure she can coexist with the other 2 because we are all going to be under the same roof again and in a smaller home.

This is where I have to be very realistic in my expectations. B will never "like" the other dogs, she will never want to play with them, she will never seek them out to be nice. But she can learn to behave and mind her manners in my presence around them. She will never be alone with them. She will always have her muzzle on and be under control around them. We will go back to having safety measures in the house to prevent fights.

Is this an easy life? F**k, no. But I chose to keep her so this IS life with her. This is what people need to understand. You have to be clear on your expectations and if you want to live this lifestyle. You have to be prepared to change your vision for you and your dog.

You CAN still enjoy these dogs. You CAN still have fun and go out. It will just look a little different. Don't give up on them, give up on your "perfect idea of them".

Pictures are of B and Hobbs learning to walk together. First step to integration.

To love a dog is to train a dog.

What does it mean to be dedicated to your dog/dogs?

To me that means keeping the body, mind and soul of my dogs happy. That is different for each of my 5 dogs. Two are content just going out potty a couple times a day with some petting and loving along the way. (13yr old husky and 5yr old bulldog)

One is happy to just be around me all day with some play sprinkled in. He also loves playing with his little brother. He still needs direction here and there so he doesn't become pushy about what HE wants. Typical GSD. (3yr old pet German shepherd)

The last 2 require much more. They need daily mental and physical work. Not that the other 3 don't need mental work but it's on a much lower level. My last 2 are Malinois (4yrs and 1yr). I enjoy them so much as they challenge me and they also want to please SO badly. They are a very tough breed but they are also super emotional and sensitive. They will keep you in check as far as fairness. They are quick to say "hey, that was too much". LOL

The picture below is from this morning's session with my 2 Mal's. Cold, rain, hot or snow it doesn't matter, they have to be worked.

Make sure your lifestyle fits the dog you want. Make sure you can DEDICATE the time and energy into your dog. If you don't they will never be the dog you want.

Having fun in the snow ❄️❄️🌨️🌨️

I have had some questions with the dogs staying at P13 during this winter storm so I wanted to ease everyone's minds.

I have decided I would stay at the kennel with the dogs to make sure they are all taken care of and stay warm. My family and I know how important it is to make sure all the dogs are safe and cared for especially during times of uncertainty. We have a generator if we lose power and I always have plenty of water on hand if we should loser that as well. However we are on the same grid as the hospital. So if we do loser power it is not for long.

As always my doors are open to any families that may lose power and need somewhere warm for their dogs to stay, as we did after the hurricane in July. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need somewhere safe for your dogs to stay.

Stay safe and stay warm

I need help please. This guy is a stray I took in right before the hurricane in July. We've named him Pico. The Vet estimates he is 5-6yrs old. I have confirmed with the surrounding businesses and residents that he's been here, as on the streets for "years". They say he isn't nice, but really he is very sweet and cuddly. It took 3mo to win his trust and now he loves us here at P13. I've had him fully vaccinated and he is doing a slow kill for his heartworms.

I can't keep him as my own. But it will take a special home for him. They need to be patient with him to gain trust and he is an escape artist so has to be watched for a bit in the yard and around a front door. Once he is attached he will love you forever. He can be territorial with new people around his house so he needs understanding with that as well. He is much better with that now at the kennel. (He claimed the kennel and would try to chase everyone away)

He is kenneled trained. He goes in at night and anytime I leave. He has to be kenneled when unsupervised or he will try to escape. He is also good with most dogs and very patient.

He has baggage I won't lie. But he is so sweet and kind when he warms up. He loves to talk and "dance" when he's excited it's so stinking cute.

Please share and ask around for anyone looking for an older dog who needs his 1st forever home 💜

Thank you love Pico
