We took over the two very old sisters Luka and Sonniela (both 14 years) from our programme for former chain dogs from their refuge. Unfortunately, their owner was no longer able to take care of them due to serious age-related health problems. We also took in Emil, who is about 5 years old, after his owner passed away. As he had lived on a chain all his life, he had no social behaviour whatsoever. It took some time until we managed to socialise him with a female who had lost her partner.
