POLLUX UPDATES & Things You NEVER Get To See

This might be my favorite Pollux video yet!! I'm sharing updates on all things Pollux the dog. We adopted Pollux 6 months ago, and his dog transformation while learning to be a dog has been incredible to watch. He is such a happy dog...and he's changed so much since he has been in our home. Take a look!

Hey There! When we first saw Pollux we thought he was related to our English Fox Hound mix...the more you share, the mor convinced we are. Plz meet Xena! kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6qlppR_iL91rKM

Absolutely ADORE angel Pollux

Keep us posted, this is great. Try some carrot pieces, our dogs love the crunch 😄 Toss a biscuit in his doggie pool and let us know if he goes in to get it. They sure are having fun

[@wildwoman8310]

U always have such cute & funny videos. Love Pollux & Maxxie together! They really needed each other! Pollux w/his beds & pool are cracking me up. It's a wonderful thing U did adopting him. I think he knows what a lucky dog he is. Maxxie is SO cute! Pets just fill the voids in our lives & they teach US so much. One of our beautiful days to enjoy on your video!! Sure has been nice but the heat is ON. OH YUCK! Still plan to come & get ice cream. I've been battling my allergies & not feeling too well. My Ebony is so sad w/o her "Boo Baby!" I still have my crying moments too. Takes a long time to heal. Pray for me & my Ebony. I realized a couple weeks ago I am dealing w/Identity Theft which is a nightmare!! Who does that to an old, worn out nurse & Veteran w/ Social Security Disability income??? And I have to notify all these people & businesses. Keep bringing the videos. Really enjoying them. Nice distraction from the chaos for me & my Ebony baby girl. Your daughter is SO cute!! I can tell Pollux loves her esp. when she plays w/him. SO cute together. Happy Father's Day to Maxxie & Pollux's Dad!! My Eb is sleeping & snoring. I let some of my friends hear her on phone. They thought I had a man @ my house. Least it gave us something to lol about! 🎅🎅🎅🎅🎅🎅🦋☃️🐾 🐾 FOR POLLUX & MAXXIE..........🦴🦴

[@rozlin313]

Can't imagine being in Pollux's paws. Now he can just run around and get the zoomies on such a nice property and he has a brother, mommy and a daddy that loves him. 💖

[@lespangen]

Maybe delayed but now he’s living the best life with a wonderful family and older doggy brother room for zoomies Thanks Hayden family for sharing this with us So happy that Maxie was not jealous and ready to share with a new friend and that Renee mindful of Maxie’s past food aggression manag d so it wasn’t an issue( Pollux was quite willing to wait his turn😬

[@Vulpixyy]

So behaviorally, it means he looooves the bed! The reason he is shredding it there is because he feels very safe in that spot. You might be able to get around him shredding it by putting some old fleece blankets in the bed. A lot of dogs will scratch at those and chew them up and use them to "nest" instead of shredding the bed underneath.

[@xxxxOS]

Not at all. Its 'destructive behaviour' for attention, he needs to be more mentally stimulated. He tore up the second bed because his behaviour was reinforced the first time round, because after he destroyed his old bed, he got attention, then got a new bed, so he will repeat the pattern. He is a happy and healthy dog but hes clever, he needs to have toys and games that keep him busy. Like foraging toys etc. Dogs rarely destroy what they love, they destroy certain toys but not other toys because the ones they dont destroy are their favourites. When dogs destroy furniture etc it's usually because of boredom, separation anxiety or lack of attention. I'm not saying for one minute that Renee and her family arent giving pollux attention or doing their absolute best, its just that some dogs can be a bit more difficult. With Polluxes background it makes sense. He probably feels safe in that corner because it reminds him of his alone time when he grew up in the shelter, but deep down he doesnt actually like that memory so when he is sitting alone watching out the window he may be triggered to feel that same loneliness he felt in the shelter. Busy families have to get stuff done, but in the time that they are busy and on the go pollux may feel he needs attention, hes learned that destroying things gives him attention either from the shelter or at his new home. None of this isnt fixable and I could be wrong because I dont know how much time is spent one on one with pollux, it could be completely innocent and hes just enjoying destroying his bed but time will tell, if it is an attention behaviour he will get bored of destroying his bed and move onto other things. But all of this can be trained out of him so no matter what, pollux will be okay. Renee and her family certainly love him and will do what's right for him, on their terms. 😊

[@Wob-rt1sc]

Jen Dark Energy 384400 100% agree. I have an 8 month old Newfie and she does exactly the same when she’s bored. I’m with her 24/7 but sometimes I need to get jobs done and she’ll pull her bed to bits, paddle in it and recently, squish and hump it 🥴I have not given her any attention for any behaviour relating to her bed. The destruction usually takes place overnight-possibly as she wakes earlier and gets bored until someone gets up.

[@lisac7386]

@@Wob-rt1sc My son has a dog that was a crazily aggressive chewer. While going through the chewing phase of puppy hood her tore everything up. It was not attention getting and his favorite toys actually were the ones he could tear up. He liked the unstuffing process which other dogs do also. I finally gave him a wool dryer ball. It is very densely packed wool so he can pull it apart, but much more slowly. And much cheaper than "indestructible" dog toys that last less than a few days.

[@annebruecks7381]

Yes, blankets On the bed is a great idea!

[@elaine-kittyfostermom]

Watching Pollux learn how to have fun and be a dog is such a beautiful thing. The shelters in Houston don't keep dogs more than about 72 hours. So happy he was saved and with his forever family. He deserves a happy life. Thank you for giving him his best life! 💗

[@mayame1079]

Hi Rene, I need to tell you,I don't have curly hair or going through a prosses of not dying it, but I watch all of your videos, I love your calm, positive energies, your lovely family and most of all, I love the way you take care of your beautiful dogs. In fact, the first video that made me discover your channel was the one you declared you adopted pollux, I don't miss a video you upload since. I came for the dog, stayed because of you. Keep on doing what you do, you are great!💞

[@dianegries1811]

Pollux has so many cute quirks . It's so great that you're willing to keep having patience with him. He's such a sweetheart ❤️

[@nikkipage9284]

My German Shepherd tore up every bed we ever bought him - we couldn't stop him from it. Finally, we just gave him my daughters twin mattress and bought her a new one. He sleeps on it fine, and wouldn't dream of tearing it up - I think because it smells like her.

[@janicemabey4579]

Someone commented below that he looks like he's herding. I think they hit the nail on the head and he looks like he's got quite a bit of collie (smooth coat) in him. Love him, he's wonderful and I'm so glad you've given him such a great life!

[@lespangen]

So glad that while he had to wait a long time he ended up in a perfect home with a brother to teach him how to dog Love Pollux, Maxie and the wonderful Hayden family 😍😍😍

I love these updates! Thanks Renee! Oh hey, I think someone else might be right re the doggy door. At the kennel he formerly lived at, he likely had to wait for the 'okay, let's go' command before he could go out and in his area..poor boy. So much to learn, but what an amazing job you all do with him! Thanks for sharing your days and theirs with us. Always a happy distraction I genuinely look forward to.

[@albertarose1433]

As soon as I saw Pollux updates I opened your vlog! He’s actually how I found your site when you adopted him (animal lover here). But now I watch all your videos! Boy is he coming along beautifully. With your continued love and patience and working with him, he’s going to get through that darn doggie door on his own! And maybe even the pool! Thank you for adopting him and bringing joy to his life, yours and ours. ♥️🐶

[@Guinnivere]

Alberta Rose me too! I saw the story when she first adopted him after Christmas , also an animal lover, and now I’m hooked on her videos. Love her happy energy, loving nature and the great southern accent!

[@llchapman1234]

It was the first of her videos that I saw, too.

[@Dwynfal]

He's just too darling for words! It's a testament to his character that he's doing so well after so long in the shelter! Since he's a crunchy guy, try giving him raw carrots. Most dogs love them. Start with a treat-sized piece and if he likes them you can give him whole ones... They make fantastic toothbrushes! Around here whole raw carrots are called doggie dessert ... One or two after each meal and everyone has clean and healthy teeth!

[@amyhenry9315]

My terrier lives a piece of carrot or apple and LOVES ice cubes!!!! I hold the cube in my hand to warm it a little so it won't stick to his tongue.

[@heatherchantler5435]

Thanks for being his family who he waited so long for. He’s so loving and respectful with Max

[@helpfulnatural]

The bed tearing is an interesting conundrum. I wonder if he's "making his bed" so to speak, with the dining room being his den. One of our previous dogs used to dig his pillow before turning around in circles to lay down on it. It was as if he wanted to roll it up in a ball rather than laying on it flat. Pollux seems to be less camera shy. :) He also looks so much more relaxed and happy. :)

[@beaoncam6759]

Sneezing can mean multiple things in dogs. Either to show excitement, that they are not actually being aggressive and just playing, or discomfort. Clearly, I'd say it was to show excitement/that they are just play fighting and not actually fighting. :) Very cute.

[@kananiy1]

He’s a busy little guy.

[@christinatraven3649]

As I’m watching the video, it dawned on me how much Pollux looks like a smooth collie. He is beautiful.

[@colleenscottcarmello5103]

Renee, keep in mind that Pollux was in a cage all his life.. Humans opened the door and decided if he came out or not.. he is trained to not go through a door just because it is opened and trained to wait to hear the human tell him he can go through. (likely while they're standing at the door when telling him).. he is trained/conditioned that he doesn't get to choose it. to just sit and wait.. then he comes to your home and how does he go outside,, yep, when one of you humans hold the door open an say come on, let's go outside.. :)) i'm guessing the doggy door is the same in his brain.. he has to sit and wait.. if the human wants him to go through, they will hold the 'door; open and tell him.. I think that might be what you can work on, letting him know he can choose.. i would do it with meat.. a few times holding the door open and having tiny pieces of hamburgers or steak and call him through, he gets the steak, then with the door closed, and a leash on him, put the leash through the door, hold the steak toward the door calling him and gently pull him toward the door.. keeping his eyes on the steak.. do not loosen up on the leash.. let him adjust until he settles down a bit and call him again with the steak.. pull him closer and closer each time. gently pull him through the door even while he is resisting.. immediately give him the steak.. over and over he will start to want the steak more than he doesn't want to touch the door.. praising him after he goes through it will help him understand that you give him permission to go through it.. and is rewarded for going through it.. eventually the reward will be praise.. he will be so happy.. he is doing what he is trained/conditioned and you will have to do 'actually training' steps to help him.. You are so good with him. you are such a blessing. ooxoxoxo

[@WELCOMETOMYCURLS]

you might be right! He doesn't tear up his calming bed. Hmmm....

[@pjmiller8632]

I wonder if a blanket in his bed would possibly do the trick to help him stop chewing it? He could also hide his toys! Funny, sweet boy. 😊

[@teresawalters6358]

I am no dog expert,but it seems to me that Pollux is trying to nest in his bed,that is why he tears holes in it and brings the stuffing out.I would only keep an eye on him,so that he does not swallow the stuffing,because it could be very dangerous.Apart from this,Pollux is a wonderful dog,so sweet!! And Maxxie is really cute! Love to see thdm playing round!

About a year ago, when everyone was looking for dogs bc they were on lockdown, my Mom was looking high and low for a pup to adopt. Every one she put an app in for, got selected for another family. She cried every time. They finally went to an adoption event a state over one day, in NJ, and she asked the staff, ‘is there a dog here no one wants?’ They ended up bringing Charley home that day, and he looks and acts just like Pollux!! I call him a Cattle Dog, which is a catch all term but those colors and spots are so similar! The funny thing is my Mom was looking for a small female and ended up with a 45lb male 🤣. Why were Pollux and Charley passed over time and again? All I can think is that they were waiting there for their perfect family ❤️❤️❤️

Nothing better than a happy dog. He definitely needed a home with a dog that could show him the ropes!! Happy birthday dear Pollux ❤️

Also I hope you know that you totally extended Maxis life and vitality by bringing Pollux home, that kind of love and play and movement keeps them young.

Thank you so much for the update. Your puppers are so adorable. Pollox is thriving...& learning to be a contented, well adjusted dog. God bless you and your family for adopting that lucky boy. May God continue to bless you and your family & everything you put your hands to.

You have a beautiful home and yard. That tail does not stop. He is so fortunate to have such a spectacular family. Love you guys. God bless you all.

Absolutely adorable! He's come a long way.

I love that Pollux has such a loving new home with you and your family. I've heard that the butt move is a dominance move. Also, found a tidbit about the name Pollux. "Castor and Pollux (or in Greek, Polydeukes) are twin half-brothers in Greek and Roman mythology, known together as the Dioscuri. ... Pollux asked Zeus to let him share his own immortality with his twin to keep them together, and they were transformed into the constellation Gemini."

Pollux is such a lucky dog !!! You take such good care of him. He is so loved . I am so happy to see how well he has adjusted to his new life.. he is so happy now with your family. Thank you for the wonderful video and sharing sweet Pollux with us.

Your doggies are so adorable! 💙💙

[@lynitadyer6592]

Great video! I love that Pollux is making his own way by watching Maxx and looking for guidance from you. The booty is him showing submission to Maxx since he was there first. Just a way of being respectful. You might give him 2 or three pieces of fruit mixed together and let him pick what he wants. You might try bath toys in his baby pool. Motivate him a little to get in. Thanks for the update!

Dear Renee, I just your watched your Pollux updates video and I had ball watching your dogs having fun together and I can see how much you love Pollux and Maxie. It was an absolute delight to watch the three of you together I also got to laugh quite a few times. It did my heart good to see genuine love in the room. You are one lucky woman. 🦋🐝❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@goldenslumber4047]

I just found your channel and the video where you were trying to get Pollux at holiday time in 2019. My heart melted. I got tears thinking how sad to be in Animal Rescue as a little puppy and almost 2 yrs old!. What a beautiful boy he is! What a sweetheart too. You’re Maxi has helped show Pollux the ropes as to proper dog behavior, lol. As much as Maxi has been good for Pollux, I think that Pollux has also been good for Maxi! Thank you for giving Pollux a loving home with his very own peeps and a fellow furry brother! Pollux is “home, sweet home.” Just a joy to watch your videos. I’m a new subscriber! ♥️

It was so lovely to see an update on Pollux!!! And to also see Maxie! They are both such happy, happy dogs. Thank you so much for giving them such a happy home. I think some dogs are just chewers (but it seems Pollux doesn't chew on his upstairs bed, right? Maybe something about the smell of the fabric?). We once bought our dog a paddling pool when it got really warm one summer (we don't have a pool, the weather isn't quite up to having one in the Northwest of England). The only person that went into the paddling pool was me - getting very cold feet. But curiously enough our dog jumps into our local little river and swims in it and it's really cold all year round, so I never could figure out why she didn't use the paddling pool. Please keep us all posted with further updates. It's such a joy to see Pollux and Maxie!!!
