My wife and I love having our two Belgian Shepherds in our lives. We have occasionally had three dogs for short periods. You would think that adding a third dog would add about 30 percent more work, fun, and chaos into our lives. Unfortunately, it’s not quite that simple. I talked with dog trainer Amanda Brothers about how she manages her crew of 6 rescue dogs.
Two book recommendations for you = “Mine!” by Jean Donaldson is a great book about resource guarding and how to manage it with your dogs. And “Feeling Outnumbered?” by Patricia McConnell which offers tips and tricks to manage your multi-dog home! You can find both books at the Dogwise online store. Check them out!
A transcript of the main text of Expanding Your Canine Family: Multi-Dog Homes is available at the Life As A Human online magazine website. You can visit Life as a Human to find this and other articles.
