Happy dance on the mountain today, how wonderful you were able to get her. If I remember correctly you have BIG dogs, sounds like lining them up for treats is working. Walking all together is an excellent way to get her use to them. Keep in mind, everything is new to her, you will need a lot of patience with her until she gets use to her new home and new sisters and brothers, lots of praise and treats when she does good, no scolding when she doesn't do what she's supposed to, correction only. It can a few weeks for her to feel safe,comfortable and secure, and to trust you and her canine family. I am so happy for you that you were able to adopt her, she is a lucky girl to have you as her mama. Since she was an inside dog only she was not socialized with dogs, this may take time for her to adjust to. Hopefully other more experienced members who have had these issue can offer up suggestions. I have never ran into these issue with any of my passed girls. (((hugs))) I am so happy for you.
