@theasherhouse: An important discussion about a traumatic situation. After more than a decade of living and working daily with large groups of dogs, often 50 to 200 at a time I was asked by hundreds of people to speak on what happened with Rafi, Odin, and Pickles. Two dogs lost their lives. A young dog is now at risk of being blamed as well as the boarding facility. And a lot of dangerous advice is circulating from people who don’t understand pack dynamics or high stress environments. Let me be clear: I’m not here to attack anyone. I don’t blame anyone, nor the dogs involved... Especially since the information given so far, has been limited. What I do believe is that the full truth matters and that compassion and clarity are more important than outrage. Disclaimer: This is my perspective and evaluation of the dogs and the situation, based on my own lived experiences working with and around large packs of dogs and the information provided by the owner. Please watch the full video before forming an opinion.
I think it’s harmful to suggest rehoming when you don’t know the dog (what’s not on socials), or the ability for the owner to even temporarily keep the dog safe while rehoming is pursued. I will say kudos for offering to take him on though.

I want to thank you for making this video. The little clips about the three dogs rolling across my feed were gut wrenching. You provide some clarity and explanation and I thank you for that. And for all you work with dogs. ❤️🩹

I totally agree with the pack mentality thing and I like how informative your videos are. It didn’t let me add that before it posted my last comment.
