My big kennel complex is divided such that it can be three separate kennels or one big one, if everyone is compatible. The kennel currently holds Thora (female GSD), Radley (American Bulldog), Mercedes (new young female GSD), and D Dog (the rottie mix). They are all fine together so the gates are open and everyone is together. That makes for a more stimulating environment for all of them, and of course, more space. Here are some pics I snapped late Thursday afternoon while cleaning and feeding.

Some part of Thora managed to be in most of my pictures. She is clearly in charge in that kennel, but she's a mostly benevolent ruler. She sorted out D Dog right away and even the wild child female shepherd, Mercedes. |

| Radley is a nice boy, plays well with others, wants no trouble. |

This is D Dog the rottie mix. He's in a nice submissive posture here, sitting with ears back, but he has a distrustful look in his eyes and he's clearly scared when someone grabs his collar or tries make him do something. The jury is still out on this one. |

| Mercedes is often too busy to be bothered with eating. |

All of my rescue rotties have been very resistant to being pulled, pushed, or coaxed anywhere, and that's one thing they never get passed. The more you try to get them to do something, the less they want to do it. I figure they were tricked once too many times in their past and never want to make that mistake again. Your best bet is to turn your back and then they will almost always follow you happily.
