How to Calm a Rescue Dog

Start with What Your Dog Is Doing, Not Where They Came From

Rescue and rehomed dogs don't all struggle the same way. Some fall apart when left alone.

Some are reactive and hard to manage on leash. Some panic at every loud noise. The history matters less than the behavior you are seeing right now.
