Tabs, great little dog. I love the look of Russells but had always heard they will engage in a fight with almost any other dog. Great that she doesn't have that, huge congrats for saving a little beauty like her from what might have been a poor fate.

I'll offer a very strong recommendation to you/anyone in Socal. There is a dog training club that operates out of Jackie Robinson field across the street from the Rose Bowl. It is weirdly named, it is call the 'Pasa-nita" dog club. A bunch of 50's-60's women who loved dogs run it and it can't be beat for the ...I think $60 or $80 for weeks and weeks of training sessions. Puts the dumb things they have at Petsmart and the like to shame. Highest recommendation. No affiliation, just great results. You meet one night a week for an hour and the ladies will work with you if you have a special problem or a dog that isn't "getting it".
