Week 7 for Piano has been great. We have spent the week reinforcing the commands we have taught him over the entirety of his stay here. Piano is one of those rare dogs that truly wants to learn more. He has an easy time engaging with his handler and has fun while he is learning, and this attitude of his has made this process so easy and fun for us all here. His obedience is certainly above and beyond what we had planned when he got here, but we have been blessed with a dog like Piano.
Piano’s behavior has been his challenge while he is here. Piano has a hunter’s spirit, he likes to chase, to track things down, to hunt – and has been bred to do exactly that. Those behaviors are not necessarily problematic, but in an environment with more people than prey has made it a challenge for Piano. Fast moving objects and things make Piano’s instinct come out. We knew this from the beginning and have tried to keep that part of his mind satisfied by throwing balls for him to chase, letting him play with other dogs at least 3 times a day, and letting him enjoy his freedom when we are not training. We hoped that would give him enough energy release to allow us time to set boundaries for him that were appropriate, and we were mostly right. The most important thing for anyone to understand about Piano is his nature as a hunting dog. Someone cannot keep this dog in a house all day long and expect him to be a good boy, he needs to run and chase and play often. When his body has a way to burn energy appropriately, it makes it so much easier to talk to his mind.
Piano is such a great dog. He is so smart. He loves his people and bonds pretty easily. Piano will love your family and protect your home, he will play with you, go on adventures with you, and he will listen to you. Piano is one of the rare dogs that has everything that someone could hope for in a dog. We hope he finds the best home that he could. Just make sure he gets plenty of space to follow his nature.

Diva is ready to become the next new addition to any home She is such a wonderful love bug and gets along with everyone. Diva enjoys playing tug and will run around until you’re ready for her to stop. Diva will bring you comfort when you feel down and can be well behaved when other people are around. She takes treats softly and will work for food. Her food drive is not the greatest but you can use toys and other rewards to get her to execute the commands you like. The easiest, most pleasurable way to build a relationship with Diva is to just let her be free. This dog will choose to be next to you, and enjoys lying just about anywhere. She is very smart and can continue to learn new tricks or behaviors quickly. In order to make her most successful try to teach her things where she can see you at all times. Having one eye makes her turn towards where she can see and she uses it to find balance. You will be missing out on one of the greatest joys you could add to your family if you don’t adopt her. So I hope that if you read this you will call the rescue immediately and set up a meet and greet with Diva.
