For when it isn't a bad week.

If you are already thinking about giving the dog up, read this before you decide anything. It is written for exactly that week.

Some of the people listing a dog with you should be listing it. Many shouldn't, and would stop if someone gave them a way to check.

This is that check, plus the honest section for those it doesn't help — because the most useful thing you can tell some families is that they've already done enough.

  • six questions — bad week or wrong match
  • how to read the answers
  • what a reset can and can't fix
  • when a reset won't fix it
  • what to pass on with the dog

I wrote this for my family. Then I shared it with the people I thought might get something from it. Use it, ignore it, or write back and tell me how to make it better. Up to you.
