The 3-3-3 Rule

The 3-3-3 rule is a helpful reminder of what many rescue dogs experience when entering a new home.

 

3 days to decompress and take it all in.
 

3 weeks to start learning your routine and feel a bit more comfortable.
 

3 months to truly settle in and show their full personality.

 

Every dog is different, but patience, consistency, and understanding during this time can make all the difference.
