I love Sarah;s posts, they are always informative and this one hits close to home.

Helping the Newly Adopted Dog | mysmartpuppy.com:

"Regardless of your dog’s past, his new life starts the day you bring him home. What he needs most is for you to limit his stress, while increasing reassuring structure in the form of routines, training and confinement. Offering daily stress-release outlets, in the form of play, exercise, toys and fun training is key at all times but downright critical for a newly adopted dog from any source: shelter, breeder, pet store."
