    Yes - Whether your 1 + 2 make you crazy or not, you are a …very ...very ...brave soul. Hat's off to you for opening your home to two in need. ;)

    Congratulations! Can't wait to hear how they all do once they get used to eachother. I can't look at the BRAT website very often, otherwise I would have a pack of dogs.:p

    Yes I have that problem but these two just really tugged at my heart. They are a little older 6 & 8 so not as many people would be willing to adopt them especially together. We are fine with it. They love kids and we have two so we're hoping they fit in perfect. We're just having a hard time being patient.

    @Basenji_Boy:

    Do the two females get along?

    They've been together forever and could only be adopted as a pair so I would say yes…..I guess I'll find out if they have any issues with each other once there here. They've been crated together while waiting to be adopted so I got them one big crate to share hopefully that works and keeps their stress down.

    This was her Saturday night while I was assembling some furniture, she was fast asleep! She's cuddly but was literally under me, it was unusual but now I know why. [image: 1669635577308-tn_signal-2022-11-26-180406_002140.jpg]

    Or take them both, and be relaxed about it all. The less anxiety in you, the calmer they will be.

    @MacPack: I'll check it out. My DH Donald takes most of our photos and some sites claim ownership of all photos posted there so he is leery. Sounds easy enough, if I can e-mail photos there, then figure how to get them from there to here, haha! This site actually does that, but since the photos aren't actually physically posted here (uploaded to this site) , but are hot linked, I am not sure how they can be "claimed". That clause gave me pause as well…....and apparently also applies to what is written. It would make for an interesting legal case, for sure, if someone inadvertently posted copywritten material. Of for that matter if the material was posted elsewhere without attribution or with false attribution. BTW, from Photobucket's terms & conditions: "You retain all your rights to any Content you submit, post or display on or while using Photobucket. This means that YOU own ALL the Content you post"

    @AJs: Body language is important. Learning how to use eye contact and tone of voice is important too. For instance: If you speak to your dog in a high pitched tone, it indicates excitement and that your are pleased with them…If you lower your tone, especially when they've done something you are unhappy about, they recognize this easier than the words themselves. At least that's been my experience. Dogs (and cats) use so many communication methods...it's a matter of working with your own dog (or cat.) There are other subtle methods I use and AJ seems to respond to my cues rather well. Again, I have different requirements than other pet people. Zest's person could probably help too, having looked at her agility trials. Ah yes, they really do respond well to a higher tone and lower tone when speaking to them. Whenever Kananga has done something naughty, I don't even need to motion anything, I just say his name in a low tone and he instantly responds to it knowing he has done something wrong. The ol' whippet ears go into action. I always use a higher tone when he's playing so he understands the difference. Seems to work.
