Any rescue can make a smooth transition into a loving forever home!

The tides of dog ownership are changing, and thanks to Hollywood A-Listers like George Clooney and Sandra Bullock and music icons like Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift, animal rescue and dog adoptions have become as fashionable as the latest Valentino or Armani! Millions of ordinary Americans—heroes one and all—have opened their hearts and homes to rescue dogs, and fewer abandoned pets are euthanized in the U.S. than ever before.

To keep this encouraging adoption trend moving forward and guarantee that rescued dogs stay in their new forever homes, Tracy Libby's The Rescue Dog Problem Solver seeks to make the story of every adopted pooch a predestined success! While most dogs wind up in shelters due to no fault of their own, many rescue dogs develop unwanted behaviors while living with their previous owners. To assure success with your adopted puppy, adult dog, or senior pup, you must be prepared to handle and confidently resolve behavioral problems that arise, through proven positive-training methods.

This eye-opening, problem-solving guide, filled with empowering stories of rescued dogs that defied the odds, is dedicated to the success of every rescuer and their happy, health companion dog! Inside, you'll find 50 ways rescuers can overcome potential challenges with their adoptive dogs, 25 secrets to unraveling common behavior issues from house-soiling and escaping the yard to biting, barking, and hyperactivity, 200 dog training and behavior tips for a well-mannered dog, a dozen heartwarming stories of real-life rescues and their adoptive parents, and countless ways dog lovers can raise awareness about animal rescue and responsible pet ownership in their communities. Learn how to house-train a dog of any age, instill a strong bond with positive-reinforcement training (even with an older dog), and how to help dogs with special needs.

In 224 information-packed pages, this informative resource provides inspiring true stories and helpful, practical information that new dog caretakers need. An excellent reference book, you can easily look up specific situations your dog is experiencing and find step-by-step, easy-to-follow ideas to remedy the issue.

Every rescued dog has a story to tell. The Rescued Dog Problem Solver shares the amazing journeys of some very special rescued dogs to show adoptive pet parents how to solve common issues that rescued dogs often face. From the Pit Bull mix who needed socialization to the Lab who just wouldn't stop barking, each heartfelt tale provides an important lesson for an adoptive dog owner. With this book, you'll find that taking the leap of faith to change one dog's life might even change yours!

Build a mutually loving and respectful relationship using positive training methods, with the essential guide for anyone thinking about rescuing a dog or who already has a rescue in the family, The Rescue Dog Problem Solver!
