How are their personalities and challenges difficult for you? Like, what stood out to you about their behaviour? So with Pippa, she's obviously a big risk of potentially biting somebody. Dogs she's great with, not so much with the human. She will back off, she will run and lunge at you, then she'll come at you again after she's backed off. Very nervous girl. What does success look like for you by Friday? Hopefully what we did with Rex. I want to get them off lead, I want to get them trusting people off lead. Being around other dogs, ready to be rehomed, ready to go out into the world on the road.
