The Poodle I had the problem with did beautifully during his eight weeks....would come, stay, heal on and off leash, sit and lie down on hand commands...when told 'go to your place' would immediately head for a particular table in the livingroom and lay down under it and stay there until told to move...And this from a dog who was a cowering mess when he arrived in the house, and who tried to go through the screen door to get the mailman, and would lunge at anyone who came into the house.....He was really great...until the day he snarled at a toddler.... My feeling is that once a dog, particularly a big dog, has been abused, your fooling around with a loaded weapon with a hair trigger... B.
