This dog is gonna test my abilities
Background: I have decided to take over the position of behavioral advisor at my clinic when the current vet in this position retires. I have always been interested in behavior and am very excited about this. Now, the "foster" dog we have is going to put all my abilities to the test. His issues: timid, submissive urination, ADHD like acitivity patterns, humping, housetraining/marking problems. I am neutering him tomorrow and that should help with the housetraining/marking problems. Tonight I am getting some belly wraps for him (basically doggy diapers) to help with the marking until the testosterone leaves his system and the training begins to sink in. I am giving him a week then will consider pharmaceutical intervention for his inability to concentrate. We are also going to begin daily walks which hopefully will lead into runs once he is recovered from surgery and I build up my stamina. That will help me as well. I stepped on the scale 2 nights ago and it wasn't pretty. I have hit my "maximum" number
