I have had the privilege of working with many families who have elected to rescue a puppy in need, Many of these puppies missed much of their early socialization opportunities, which they should have received at a younger age, and started life in their forever homes "behind" and unsure with themselves before training. I am happy to report that 94% of the puppies I worked with from shelter backgrounds in 2017 stayed with the families that originally adopted them! This is a huge credit to the shelters for high quality screening and selection for the families wishing to adopt them! Great Job Everyone!
