Weavers been in his new foster home for a month now and here’s what we’ve learned about this amazing boy!
- He’s smart and a fast learner.
- He’s sweet and gentle except when meeting people he’ll jump up on you. We’re still working on manners.
- He LOVES humans, but takes subtle cues from his resident 4 fur sisters.
- He loves everyone he meets including kids, but may knock over little ones with his energy and exuberance. Kids 8+ are recommended.
- He gets along great with other dogs taking cues from them.
- He walks well with a leash and harness. He loves his walks.
- He loves breakfast, dinner and takes treats gently from your hand.
- He does all his business outside.
- He’s a Velcro dog, needing to be by his people including at night where he sleeps beside the bed on the floor.
- He sometimes has bad dreams about what life was like when he was living outside alone.
- Weaver is not a candidate for a boarding facility.
- He needs reassurance and consistency so he can learn that people are good, and will be there for him.
- Medium energy boy. He gets super excited to greet people, loves his walks, will chase a ball a few times, and plays hard with his 2-1/2 yr Great Pyrenees pal Winnie (our daughter’s dog) but is very respectful of our old crew here at the house. He needs to burn off some energy but when I’m busy with other things, he’s very good and chews on Nylabones, napping until we’re ready to go outside.
Weaver is a marvelous dog with lots of amazing qualities. Because of his past, he needs adopters who are home more than not, preferably work from home, semi retired or retired. He’s quite taken with foster Dad so a male in a forever home would be an added bonus. He loves children but because of his exuberance children 8+ is recommended. He needs a confident resident dog, preferably on the younger side who wants to play, and lots of love, patience and consistency. He’s going to make a wonderful addition for the right family.
