Question We just adopted a 3.5 year old Brussels Griffon/mix mill pup. She is making great strides in learning to trust, gets along well with our other pets. Has problems with men and we are having a terrible time housebreaking her. We've read about the mill pups terrible history and are looking for any tips/tricks specifically for rehabilitating mill dogs with regard to housebreaking and learning to trust men!
THANKS! SK
Answer Hello Sharon,
You've done a good thing in adopting. You are right about the terrible history of mill pups.
I'm afraid that I can't give much advice other then to be extremely patient. The fact that you've made "great strides" would indicate you are doing the right things. There are no valid tips/tricks that I know of other then time to rehabilitate a 3.5 year old dog with a history of abuse.
