Hi Andrea,
Been a long time, hasn't it?
Look, I just took in a foster dog from SharPei Savers where we had
gotten blind Murray years ago. This little girl is 5 years old and
blind too. Her 80 year old owner got sick and her "friends" took
Angel to the pound. SharPei Savers rescued her, but because no foster
homes were available, she was put in a kennel to waitfor the past 2
months. I decided to be a foster home for them, and she is my first
one. She is very sweet. Trouble is she is OBSESSED with my 3 cats! I
mean, she won't stop looking for them constantly! We just got her
Sat. so I let her have the run of the house, and even though she's
gotten smacked 3 times so far, it doesn't stop her. She smells them
as they pass and she's off and tracking. Even if they don't pass her,
she's looking, all the time. This afternoon I finally left her leash
on her harness and kept her with me. Right now the leash is hooked
over my shoe as I am on the computer, and for the first time she is
laying down. She would run around her for hours and hours before and
never rest. So how can I fix her fixation? I did buy a new clicker as
I gave my old one away, do I get it and click it now as she is
resting and give her a treat? And what else can I do? HELP!!!
