@SiggyStern We are so lucky that Martin lives here! His book 'What Your Dog's Telling You?' is officially released for sale & public applause today (nearly) September 1. Published by ABC Books as a series of questions abt dog's & their behaviour & Martin's deeply thought out ideas are what every dog owner needs to know. I have had dogs all my adult life & Martin has taught me a lot I thought I knew was incorrect & he explains everything clearly. This book is a must have for genuine dog lovers!
7 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is nothing...I did not know I thought it was at least 3 - 4 weeks (and even this I find too little time to really find new homes for many)..........men kind really is blind to the suffering they cause to the animal world.......sad!
The dog welfare system in Austria is something you can be very proud of Siggy!! I truly wish Australia wd follow the 'non-kill' policy, with doggy 'godmothers & fathers' for all the pound dogs here. Sadly they don't even get weeks (plural) b4 they are put down - it's 7 days in the pound & unless someone rescues that dog, it is killed after only one week. Men are so blindly cruel & they aren't even conscious of the suffering they inflict on all the animals which they exploit for whatever reason.
I really like to have watched this video....it was interesting to see how humans and dogs can work together like this (in a way that is as natural and relaxing as shown here..)....I wish all animals would be treated like this!
Farouk was very lucky that he was semi-domesticated when you got him Martin. I have a dingo X named Shiner whose mother was a pure dingo who was 80% wild. She hated me taking one of her pups & gave me a nip. S. was very scared then, but is now part of my 'Gang of Four'. He still hides under the bed when ppl arrive & only if you ignore him will he come out to sniff you - on his own terms. He has gained confidence in me & the pack but is still shy. 2nd/3rd time you meet him he starts to relax.
