Rescue Dog Guide & Planner

Your first 3 weeks made simple, supportive, and stress-free.

Bringing home a rescue dog is one of the most rewarding things you’ll ever do - but it can also feel overwhelming. Every dog comes with a story, and those first few weeks can make all the difference in building trust and creating a happy home.

That’s why I created the Rescue Dog Guide & Planner - a mix of practical guidance and easy-to-use planning pages designed for new rescue parents who want to do right by their dogs.

This guide is packed with:
✨ Why rescue matters - and why adoption changes lives (for both dogs and humans).
✨ The 3–3–3 Rule explained in simple steps.
✨ Understanding body language - the subtle cues that tell you how your dog feels.
✨ Adjusting to your dog - patience, trust, and bonding without pressure.
✨ Common challenges (separation, reactivity, house training) with real-world tips.
✨ Encouragement + personal rescue stories - because every journey looks different.

And the planner section helps you stay organized with:
✔ Pet details + health records
✔ Allergy & treatment tracker (for natural care approaches)
✔ Daily routine + training log
✔ Expense tracker
✔ First 3 weeks checklist

This isn’t just another “dog manual.” It’s part guide, part journal, part safety net. You’ll have space to track, reflect, and celebrate progress while following advice that’s realistic, gentle, and experience-based.

I know because I’ve been there - I adopted 2 rescues (when I only planned on 1!) and learned firsthand how different each dog’s adjustment can be. Some are shy and shut down, others are cuddly from day one. This guide brings together what I wish I had when I started - something simple, supportive, and personal.

💛 If you’re about to welcome a rescue dog into your life, this planner will help you start strong, avoid common mistakes, and focus on what really matters: building trust, creating safety, and enjoying the journey together.
