***IN TRAINING TILL MID JULY***Pet Rescue By Judy has teamed up with an incredible program called the Greyhound Advancement Center which will allow some of our dogs to attend a ten-week prison training program. The program originally started to help retired racing greyhounds learn how to "dog".Greyhound racing is now illegal in our state, but the program worked so well that they decided to open up to other rescues and accept different breeds. Each dog is teamed up with an inmate who is in their dog training program. This program allows inmates to gain an important skill that they can bring with them when they are released. The head trainers are the best of the best and we are sure that these dogs are going to come out of this program with all kinds of tricks up their little doggy sleeves. Our dogs are so blessed to be able to learn important obedience training to help with their confidence and make them awesome additions to a family.We cannot thank Greyhound Advancement Center enough for giving these dogs a leg up on getting into their forever home!Ralph is a gentle, sweet-natured boy who is still building his confidence and learning to feel safe in the world around him. While he may not be as outgoing as his brother, Ralph shines in his own quiet way-especially when he has a patient and understanding person by his side.

He follows direction very well and is eager to please, especially when food is involved-this makes him a great candidate for continued positive reinforcement training. With a little time, consistency, and encouragement, Ralph will continue to blossom and come out of his shell.

Ralph has a calm, relaxed side that truly comes out once he's comfortable. He absolutely loves curling up in a big, cozy bed and settling in for some quiet downtime.

On walks, Ralph is learning his manners and will need some guidance-he has shown interest in things like cat droppings, so continued training will help teach him what's appropriate. With his willingness to learn, he's sure to make great progress.
