[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 530725, member: 11847"] I side with the others: research good and ask lots of questions. I have 2 dogs (one just died...) and there are all from shelters adopted at an adult age. They are real good dogs but they've had traumatic experiences. Expect to do A LOT of work and be very patient in order to train it. I would also suggest you all visit the shelter and pick the dog as a family. I work from home and leave in the woods, so I obviously have no advise as far as leaving the dog alone... But if you want, you could put the dog in the kitchen or laundry area instead of a crate? Just make sure it is dog proof. [/QUOTE]
