An Introduction to Me

[evenmoriah]

Hello. My name is Aurora. I am the proud owner of a Pitt-mix named Sheila, and a Walker Hound foster named Ladybird. We live in Orlando, FL with my boyfriend and our 3 cats (Virginia, Pi, and Bagheera). I am a big fan of positive reinforcement training, but am not sure what the causes of some of my foster dog's behaviors are...still learning her in's and out's at this point as we've only had Ladybird since Christmas. I'm here hoping to get a better sense of what to do with an abused dog who is incredibly sweet and smart but occasionally aggressive and very fearful in some situations. We can't adopt this foster-dog out until she's safe to do so, and we care too much about her to give up on her now.
