maple training camp

IN TRAINING TILL MID OCTPet 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!Meet Maple!Maple came to PRBJ when we got an urgent call from a local shelter for a dog that was in despirate need of medical attention. Maple was taken right away to Healthy Pets where their team began to assess Maple. She required surgery to remove a 6ft leash. Maple was very thin, issues with skin, ears and eyes plus the foreign body removal. She then began a slow recovery and after a couple months of good food, medications and TLC she has made a full recovery. This sweet dog is now looking for her forever home.
