i guess we'll just have to put her out back and let her stay out for a while.
the whining and barking should subside the longer you ignore it...it isn't easy but she needs to adjust to the new environment
i hear ya. i think the fact that we have a sliding glass door makes it worse too cuz she can see us. you know how you can feel someone staring at you? its the same way with kasey. kinda funny actually. she's staring daggers at me like "how the fuck are you going to let me stay out here by myself?"

Norm, I'm going to need some warning when you change your avatar. I wasn't prepared for that and now I'm quite disturbed.
For the record, Sailor, Sweet Pea and Tessie say they don't care as long as you keep posting photos of Norm that make them think of furry Pop Tarts in the Sierras.
As terrible as it is that douchebags abuse animals the way they do, i love hearing about the good stories that turn out well!
Boston Bar man charged with cruelty after dogs found in horrific situation
June 24, 2010
A Boston Bar man whose three dogs were kept in a filthy dwelling and never allowed outside has been charged with animal cruelty.
Delbert Margetts has been charged under the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act after BC SPCA constables found his three dogs living in deplorable conditions inside a home in Boston Bar.
"These dogs were forced to live in utterly horrific conditions," says Marcie Moriarty, general manager of cruelty investigations for the BC SPCA. "They were confined to rooms covered from wall to wall with fecal matter, garbage, debris, cobwebs and mould."
One dog was locked in a bathroom 24 hours a day; the other two dogs had access to a 300-square-foot room.
The dog in the bathroom, a female shepherd mix named Sage, was given only a urine-soaked outdoor chair cushion to get off the feces-coated floor. The ceiling above her buckled, exposing a thick layer of mould.
In the other room, two pit bull terrier mixes were found on a feces-covered plywood floor; the floor and everything else in the room, including various garbage and debris, were also soaked in grease and dust. A single dirty blanket provided the only reprieve from both old and fresh fecal clumps and stains.
The BC SPCA worked with local RCMP on the initial investigation. BC SPCA constables obtained a search warrant and seized all three animals on Dec. 22, 2009.
"Orders to address the dogs' living conditions and their health were ignored," says Moriarty. "Our next step was to seize the animals and recommend charges. We're pleased the charge was approved by Crown counsel and we're anxious to obtain justice for these dogs."
The PCA act carries a maximum penalty of $5,000 for a first offence and $10,000 for a second offence, up to six months in jail and a ban on owning animals for a period determined by a judge.
As for Sage, she's got a new lease on life, after being adopted by a Chilliwack family in February. She now spends her days racing around with her canine housemate, a rescued golden retriever named Hannah, in their expansive back yard, or curling up under a desk at the feet of her new work-at-home guardians.

Make your number one goal in life to train the dog you already have....then you can add another. Petey is VERY WELL trained, he is helping mentor Monty.
