The more posts I read here, the more you guys convince me that CM is not the way! Thank you. I mean I have already seen positive results of the things you all have suggested for me here. In the past my dog, Athena, has gotten along with other dogs, but the older she gets, the more I realize...

Yea we have always kinda felt that Athena has tendencies towards anxiety. When she was younger, and still in my parents care, they would let her outside at night and my dad would bang on the window, not to intentionally freak her out but to get her attention. She is TERRIFIED of being outside at...

ahaha yea she runs sooo funny! She like tears through the back yard and her back legs drop and she almost seems to float! Its insane. She is so out there too. After she does #2, she RUNS for her life away from it! My husband wants to video tape it and then edit an explosion in, just to make it...

My brother got her from a humane society. Her mom had just had a litter of 7. Her mom was all white, so naturally they called her Snow White and the babies were all named after the 7 dwarves. We got "Sleepy". . . . . . She is EXACTLY the opposite! She is very adorable though.

For sure! My little Beans.

Thank You Miakoda. I agree with you 100%. The Cat and the Dog have been completely separated as of this morning. We have already assessed as well that we are going to have to get our own place to live when we move, which makes my family a little sad, but compared to the heart ache we would have...

I know its like one big HUGE insane pack of dogs here! (not vicious rabid dogs, mind you.) So thank you for understanding. :P

I hear you there. I am through trying to understand why it is the way it is. What we need to be doing is focusing on how to fix it. The cat can (hopefully) be with my brother (who initially owned the dog) and his wife. They had her for a while until my brother decided to join the military, thus...

My husband has been taking care of the dog today while we talked about options and such. I just let her outside and then talked to my husband about being on the same page and returning to NILIF methods and being CONSISTENT and OBSERVANT and not letting ANYTHING go by with out being earned. After...

Im sorry. Honestly. I just feel like with some people in this thread I have been trying to explain how it is, which is honestly, very hard to do, and have just been slapped in the face with negative energy. Which is not helping the situation. So again I am sorry. I am dealing with my emotions in...

Yea, thats what I have been trying, because she is soo food driven, I didn't want to completely capitalize on this for fear she would think any food is for her. She doesnt seem to respond at all to affection though. Sometimes she does, but not very well. She is very much a "licker", loves to...

Yea she has a crate. She sleeps in there and is left in there when we are out of the house, etc. We make sure when she is out, she is under constant supervision. Also, in the past when she has gotten bones and stuff, we make sure she is in her crate, but even if she SEES someone, she goes...

Please oh please read all the posts before you jump all over the place. We have been doing all this and more. We have no money to save. We are living in my parents house. Spending all our money on our bills and my mothers. We are in a shite situation right now. PLEASE, read the posts before you...

Thank You all very much for your supportive posts. Its nice that some people actually READ what you are saying. Not instantly jumping to conclusions. What we have been doing has been making it worse. OKay. That really sucks. Because that's the way I have always been taught. Its how my father...

The reason behind us coming here is because in the past were weren't labeled and branded as dumpers. Thanks for making me feel all warm and fuzzy. I understand what you are saying. I WAS NEVER TOLD THIS BEFORE. I didn't know it was a death threat or whatever. Im not educated enough and I came...
