Hello, new guy here.
Long story short, my landlord rents out rooms here and works two jobs an hour away, trying to save his home. SO I have been caring for his best friend Cookie. It has been an awesome experience. She is about 5 yrs old, she was also used to breed a few times.
I am moving to be closer to school and when I told my landlord about a place I looked at, he asked if I wanted to take her with me, because he wasn't sure he could care for her, like he wants. I of course said yes.
I think I should get her fixed, as the only reason I would breed her is to keep one for myself and give one to my son. But my thought is, to adopt another as a rescue or whatever. I dont want to deal with selling them off, anyway.
I would like advice on making her a more sociable doggy. She has this thing about dominating other dogs and giving them a nip on the scruff. Especially to nervous small dogs. I have been able to deter cat chasing here, but not without some animal drama. I want to be able to take her on walks by the beach. Should I get her a muzzle? Im not a fan of those.....
