Chelsea L. asked:My Chesapeake bay retriever / lab mix has become aggressive. I have two young children and I'm terrified that he will turn on them so its come to the point that I just can't keep him anymore. He's 3 years old. Does anyone know any rescues or anywhere I can take him. I really don't want him to be put down but I think he needs to be worked with.... And before ALL the rude comments we have had him since he was 8 weeks old! So its not a "I've gotten him for Christmas and something happened deal" we have tried everything to make it work but my children's safety come first.Jessica S. replied:Contact Rescue Well 410-456-1392. They will screen adopters for you, and can best advise you. A trainer would be the best option. Other than that, he def needs to go to a private rescue. Search on petfinder.com for local rescues. Has he seen a Vet? Some medical issues can cause onset of aggression

seattleroots asked:Looking for dog rescue recommendations; adopting a service dog I am looking for recommendations for any local (able to travel within the DMV area) and reputable dog rescue organizations that you know are good to work with. I am a type 1 diabetic and am currently looking to adopt a rescue dog that I will, along with the help of a professional local trainer, train to be a diabetic alert service dog. Any leads would be greatly appreciated!

Jamie D. asked:Lab FREE - North East, MD (21901) URGENT HELP NEEDED: 8 yr old lab needs home without children. I don't know about other animals unfortunately. I tried to help someone who was being evicted. They neglected to tell me that the dog can't be lifted or he will snap, and he's possessive of his things. I've tried contacting lab specific rescues. But so far nothing is panning out. I have 3 small children in the house ages 7 mos- 6 yrs. I CAN NOT HAVE THIS DOG IN MY HOME. IF ANYONE THINKS THEY CAN HELP ME, PLEASE PM ME. VERY SWEET FOR THE PROPER HOMEKaren B. replied:Please contact Rescue Well 410-456-1392, amazing group, will not judge you at all, they will do anything they can to help. You could also reach out to House of Hope http://houseofhopeanimalrescue.com/, they are a lab rescue in Elkton. Sounds like this guy needs the right fit, and you need help finding that fit. Please reach out to both. There are experienced people willing to help.Teresa H. replied:Did you contact Rescue Well?Karen B. replied:I'm sorry to hear that, but please still call Rescue Well, they have a huge network of rescues they partner with and so much experience.

Tiffany T. asked:okay you guys are my go to with information right now. Short story is we just moved into my inlaws home while our home is being fixed. My sister in law has a male cat no more then 6 months old who has apparently had a kennel cold since she got him(I adopted from the same place and my cat had the same thing but we had her fixed within a week or two) but this cat has went to the vet one time and has not gotten better. He coughs when you pick him up from his chest he is sneezing wheezing and now Ive noticed in the last day his third eyelid is starting to show. What can we do? Does anyone know of vets that work with payments or anything. Im so afraid this poor baby is going to pass away and is suffering right now and the owner literally doesnt seem to be too worried to try and scrape any money together to get a vet? Information would be really great???Barbara W. replied:He probably needs antibiotics which usually aren't expensive. Try contacting Rescuewell.org

Ginger G. asked:Looking for a dog trainer and not Petsmart or Petco. I have a medium sized dog that goes NUTS when he sees most other dogs. Doesn't matter if he is in his yard, being walked, or in public. He has recently started getting so ballistic that he randomly starts biting anything near him when barking at the other dog...like your feet or legs! Can't have this. Don't want to not trust him. If I pick him up he doesn't react as badly. But not always possible. I don't know rates or anything - I can't afford much, but after a near scare at a large public place with a little kid who walked between my dog and another I have to do something!! Needs some other basic training too. Please and thanks!!Christine S. replied:Ginger Wallace Griffey, It looks like you have a lot of great suggestions! If you need some tips on managing your dog etc in the meantime, feel free to call our https://www.facebook.com/212157825599515 Rescue Well hotline at 410-456-1392. (It's free, and we can likely help a bit until you get into training)

Viktoria M. asked:Blue Tick Coon Hound $300 - New Castle, DE We unfortunately need to re-home our Blue Tick, Gunner. We thought we were doing this boy a favor when we adopted him but he needs to be with a family who is home more often. He is a very loving & gentile dog with a loud & unique bark. He needs to be with a family that will give him plenty of exercise & play. He absolutely loves going on his nightly walks & loves to play tug-of-war. Unfortunately when our family leaves in the morning it takes him awhile to stop barking & calm down. So I think it's best if he goes to home with someone who will be home most of the day or to someone who can keep him outside securely in a well fenced yard or on a farm. I would also recommend that he not go to a home with cats. We were told when we adopted him that he was raised with cats but that is clearly not the case. He has not tried to attack our cats but because of his high prey drive (it's a coon thing) he wants to chase them around when he gets into his playful moods. Gunner knows quite a few commands. He will come with plenty food & treats, all his toys along with his leather collar, a Soresto Flea Collar that still has 8 months of use ($70 value), really nice harness & leash. We just had all his shots done & a health inspection, he will come with all the paper work we received when we got him along with the paperwork from our vet. Gunner has been neutered & just turned 3. Please feel free to contact me with questions, we will ask for a vet reference & ask a few questions ourselves. We are asking $300 or best offer depending on the kind of home you can provide our baby. We want to make sure that who ever gets him will be able to afford his upkeep, he is a large dog that requires a lot of food.Sharon W. replied:Viktoria Eden Mosier, it sounds like you are trying to be responsible in rehoming your dog. Please consider contacting Rescue Well to help you. They don't charge for their services and they will be able to screen potential adopters to make sure the home is a good fit for him. You can still request a fee for the dog and you get the final say as to who adopts him. Good luck to you in finding a safe and loving home. rescuewell.org
