Hello all, my family is in the process of adopting a dog from the local Dog's Trust and I'd just like a few pointers.
After looking at a few dogs that turned to be unsuitable for our situation (me, DP and DS (13)) we've decided on a 1-year-old Staff bitch. We've been to the Dogs Trust a couple of times and yesterday took her for a walk. She's absolutely adorable, fabulous with DS, adores DP, and we're having the home-check tomorrow morning. Obedience is quite good considering her young age but there is a bit of extra training needed.
Background - not much known about her history as she was a stray with the RSPCA for a fortnight and has been with the Dogs Trust for a fortnight too.
I've read loads of stuff on the net and asked tons of questions at the Dogs Trust, but I thought first-hand-experience advice would be better.
Ta muchly.
