Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Tabitha has been in her temporary home for 3 weeks and Julie says she is ready to find a family to be her permanent home! Julie gave us the following assessment:
-Will tolerate the crate, but gets agitated if for too long a stretch.
-Loves walks, a bit fearful of other dogs. Does not go into the house without being picked up.
-A bit Food aggressive- best to feed away from other dogs.
-Tolerates cats, no problems with mine
-Has warmed up to Olivia (6 year old) nicely. no aggression noted.
-Potty training- goes outside but not consistently. Poops and pees on my deck or sidewalk & occasionally on the grass!
-Likes to eat once a day about 1/2 cup & some treats in her dish. Might do better with a smaller # of other pets (or maybe it's just my food crazy beagles!)
-She is shy and a little fearful but so wants to be loved, she wiggles with excitement when I come home and is getting better at not cowering when I go to pick her up.
Julie and Olivia have done an awesome job with Tabitha! And now she is ready for a home of her own! Tabitha is a 9 year old Silky Terrier. She weighs about 11.4 pounds. Tabitha's adoption fee is $185.00. If you are interested in adopting Tabitha, please complete our adoption application at http://www.secondchancedogrescueofiowa.com/adoption.html Thanks!
