Unhappy Fallon, NV 5 Month Old Female GSD

Hate to say it but, my girl got me into trouble so my landlord says she has to go ASAP and before this weekend.

She keeps getting out of the kennel no matter what method I use to try to keep her in. Chain tie-outs, tie-outs while in the kennel, reenforcing the outer lower rim of the kennel, NOTHING works! She chases the ranchers' livestock down the street and they've already shot at her before.

Shinook aka "Nookie" is UTD on shots, good with kids of all ages, good with other dogs, not good with cats, not good with livestock although she can be trained out of it, knows "Sit" "Shake" "Down" commands, she's ok on a leash but needs a lil more work.

Contact me for rehoming requirements and fee.

In Fallon, Nevada

I have no choice now cause my landlord is getting too many complaints from the ranchers, and they've been by the place before wanting to put her down...

Ok, its Friday, and I have gotten no responses from any postings I have made from various websites.

Landlord is giving me until the end of day tomorrow, then she's going to the pound =(. Trying my best to find a home, but, just havent gotten any responses on her.

FYI, got out AGAIN today. Gosh, I give this dog so much attention, just don't know why she is doing this. Luckily I got her in time before she ran out to the ranchers' land.

Have you tried putting her inside in a crate? She's just a baby. Have you contacted any GSD rescues? Or all breed rescues in your area? ARe there no kill shelters in your area?

Gee, had I known about this earlier I would consider driving out from Denver and meeting you 1/2 way (depending on wifes approval of course) I have a 4 1/2 month sable male, would make great playmates. Would like to know more about the history tho, parents etc

Have you contacted the breeder you purchased Nookie from? I seem to recall that you got her from a breeder local to you.

I was in Nevada just a couple of weeks ago. There is a rescue in the Lake Tahoe region. Have you contacted them? It is really difficult to respond to requests that need action within just a couple of days.

Could you get her to Boise? I just don't have the time to take on a foster right now. If I did, I would take her. The humane society in Boise has an extremely high adoption rate. A PB puppy would be very, very adoptable there.

Contact the breeder. They should have first option on getting any of their pups back. It's why we choose responsible breeders in the first place. Just check with your puppy warranty.

At least you now have learned no more pets until you get a place that allows you to keep them indoors.

Default well

1: She's not an "Official" breeder
2: My boyfriend/landlord doesnt want any pets indoors because of his precious and fragile little pug.

I'm about to leave this place cause that pug seems to be the better girlfriend than me! I dont allow dogs to sleep in my bed cause it provokes Alpha Dog behavior, which she has LOTS of it! But he makes me have to sleep with her as well and I'm tired of finding little pug hair all over my blanket and pillow cases! He lets her get away with EVERYTHING and he even has a crate that he NEVER uses and yet he complains when the pug destroys his blinds when we go anywhere without her. Sometimes I question his training methods.

My dogs are all housetrained and they are indoors when he's not around, but, at night, they have to be kenneled.

And by the way, Shinook did find a new home!...=)

"Alpha Dog" is an over-rated and outdated mentality. The person who came up with this theory doesn't even believe in it anymore. I question both you and your boyfriends training methods.

Ditch the BF, keep the dog and move to a place where you can work on training while keeping her inside. Problem solved.

so I'm not getting this? Your landlord is your Boyfriend? Lets HIS dog in the house but not yours?

Time to grow up and move on take the dogs with you..The "landlord" sounds like a jerk..

I would never pick my Boyfriend over my dog and take the dog to the POUND , where she will most likely be PTS...
