A person calling himself Harris Garcia has just sent me a spam mail for a wallmart card. I just thought that I should warn all of you about this spammer whom i intend to report. He should have known better this kind of spam makes me furious as it should not take up space where more important news could be sent instead.Lisbeth and the lads.

yes, i believe my dog was a stray. only because i know really nothing about her. i dont know how many sisters/brothers she has, dont know what her parents look like, dont know her birthdate. my ex, told me she was six months, and that was in 2006. the ASPCA where she came from said she was 1 1/2...so i have been going by that age and calculated when she was born... so now she is 3 yrs old...i even made up a birthday for her...sept 20...i wish i knew more about her...they said she is a pit mixed...i dont know with what...her name was originally heidi, but got changed to ashley...i love her to death...she is so sweet and loves to play...but dont get me wrong she does have her mean streak...i guess that is the pit in her..i wouldnt give her up for the world...her nickname i gave her is "poopie"....people laugh at me when i tell them that...

This looks like the group for me. I have a cat and a dog that were strays. My cat Baby was trapped in a brush pile when we purchased our property and our dog Rocky was a stray that got hit by a car before we adopted him.

Hello fellow pet lovers.... I have recently read you comments on strays and i do must say that your words inspire me.... i loved pet for long time and it's hard for me to turn them away... i will bring them home, feed them let them in when it's raining out and give them the T.L.C Treatment....(tender love and care) they need.

Lisbeth is right about that. Thanks for sharing that.

Linda since you have dogs at your home let him bond with them to begin with let him do everything at his own pace never force an issue with him regarding people. Let him figure out that not all people are as scary as he thinks. Just let him approach them when he is ready. No pressure of any kind should be put on a dog like him since he could then become fear agressive. Take it one day at a time. Love compassion and patience is what he needs. Keep things low key. He will come around when he is ready to. Treats and kindness. best wishes and good luck with your new foster. When he is ready you could let him try soft agillity to boost his selfconfidence. I have some experience with a fearfull dog if you need support I will be here for you as always. Lisbeth and the lads.

He may have to get use to the people around him. He sounds like a terrific dog. Hope you can find him a loving home.
Linda Comment by Linda on November 26, 2009 at 7:15pm
I have a new foster GSD. Balu is 5 months old, caught running in Mason City, IA., I am in Illinois. I am fostering for the Mississippi Valley German Shepherd Dog Rescue.

Balu is great with other dogs, loves to play, but he is very fearful of people. He can't be trusted around kids, and it takes him a while to warm up to anyone.

I don't have a picture of him yet, but he is a good looking boy. Anybody have any succuess with a dog like this?

Linda
