Is this the cute girl I met last summer? At only 2, I'd be very hesitant to give up on her. So, she is a challenge. Believe me, so was Bree! She wasn't worth a crap til she was 3! Embrace this opportunity to learn to work through your limitations as a team. I think you'll be very surprised what she can do a year from now.
A very wise horseman told me "Only when we've learned by doing, are we ready to take the next step."

I'm glad to hear that you have joined a club. Are you working with a more positive trainer since we last talked?
My other thought, (since you did ask... ) is that with a new pup in the house, you'll be very restricted on the wonderful work you do with rescue. That would be a shame. There's so few people here working for the homeless ones and you give cynical people like me some hope.
