Your Pet's QuirksWhen he doesn't like what I've asked him to do, he covers his nose with both paws.
Your Pet's Bio/StoryOz is an 11-year-old Russell Terrier mix. He was my sister's dog since he was a pup but she has gone into a nursing home and had to give him up. I was the only one in the family who would adopt him because of his bad habit of reactive barking. He came to us 5 months ago and we love him in spite of his barking and pulling on the leash when he spots rabbits, deer and other dogs. We are in training with him and he is doing a lot better. We live on 33 acres where his barking doesn't bother any neighbors. He is a love of a dog, not a mean bone in his body, and so accepting of our cats (who don't like him much). We love him and will give him a good life for the rest of his days.
