What Really Happens When a Dog Leaves the Shelter24 Apr 202600:13:38

This week, PJ and Christine break down what really happens when a dog leaves the shelter — from vet quarantine and isolation care to the first days in a foster home, the 3-3-3 decompression rule, and why crate training is actually an act of kindness. Charlotte still urgently needs a foster by May 7th: she's easy, cat-friendly, and has come so far after more than a year in boarding. Foster or adopt at TheLittleRedDog.org.

TLRD TL;DR: Charlotte, Energy Matching & How We Pick Our Dogs17 Apr 202600:16:36

Charlotte is still waiting — and this week she got zero foster applications. PJ and Christine share an urgent plea for this sweet, low-energy girl who just needs a quiet home (cats welcome!). They also dig into one of rescue's most important topics: matching your energy level to the right dog. From Malinois to Frenchies, pit bulls to chihuahuas, they break down why breed stereotypes mislead adopters — and how being honest about your lifestyle leads to the happiest matches. Plus: how TLRD decides which dogs they can say yes to, and why even a one-week temp foster can save a life.
