beagle behavior question
We adopted a beagle from a shelter a few weeks ago.
They had another beagle there, that seemed sweet, but indifferant to us. It turns out she had heartworms. She is now almost finished with treatment.She is an older dog and they cant find a home for her. We visited with her again now that she is feeling better. She is still indifferant to us and the first animal I've ever seen that didnt adore my husband. Could her indifferance be due to still being under heart worm treatment? -sunny |

The fact that she has heartworm suggests she has never experienced a loving caring family. I will echo what Diddy's said. Sometimes it takes dogs a while to warm up to people and trust them. When it finally happens, it's the most amazing, rewarding experience! We have a girl who is generally indifferent to people, but she does have people whom she loves, and the love she projects towards us is awesome! Unlocking a little heart like that is very rewarding. |
