Good evening Waggers! Make sure you remember to play with your pet horses today!! 🐴

When I first started seeing Luna, she wouldn’t even look at me. She wouldn’t approach me, she would whine and pace and pant. She had separation anxiety from her owner, and she was in a new place with some stranger (me)! That would make anyone nervous.

It’s amazing to see how far we’ve come together. Playful moments like these remind me why It’s crucial to be *patient* with these massive babies, and It’ll always work out. 🤍

HOW I AVOID GETTING BITTEN ON THE JOB:

This is Mack! He’s a bullmastiff, a breed which can weigh about 130 lbs.

Yesterday I entered Mack’s home by myself for the first time. (Mack and I had met prior, under supervision of his owner). My lone arrival caught him off guard, so he started displaying defensive and uncomfortable body language. Here’s what to look out for:

• yawning (dogs yawn when they’re stressed)
• lip licking / short tongue flicking
• brief body freezing and stillness
• stiff tail, can be wagging but will be visibly stiff, might be low
•head may turn away from you
•facial tension
•tense jaw
•shaking, trembling
•piloerection (the hair on the dog’s neck stands up)

Here’s how I got from a growling and scared Mack to the cuddly boy pictured above 🙂

• respect the dog’s boundaries. do not touch, hug, kiss, or corner the dog. he has every right to bite, as he’s given me signs to stay away
• don’t make direct eye contact for long periods of time
• let the dog come to you. eventually he got curious and would inch closer. in these cases, stay put and don’t motion in their direction
•speak softly. do not yell or raise your voice. use the dog’s name if possible
•food helps. I had a grilled cheese when I walked in the door. key word: HAD

Now Mack is my best bud, and it’s because I respected his space and let him acclimate to me. Happy wagging my friends!

We’ll be seeing this beautiful skyscraper girl soon!

Luna is a Great Dane. Female Danes can weigh up to 130 lbs, while males can range anywhere from 120 - 200 lbs!

As you can see, Luna is still a lap dog.
