What are the 3 first words that come to mind when you think of your dog: smart, affectionate, playful
In a short paragraph Please provide any other details or a brief overview of your foster dog:
Cynda is such a wonderful and affectionate dog. She likes to sleep with us, sit with us on the sofa.
Cynda looks forward to meal time as she wasn’t so fortunate when she was a stray in Manitoba, she had to fight for her food and was found very skinny. She will need to learn to eat slower and chew. This also means that she is incredibly food motivated and eager to learn and please for treats.
Because of her past on the streets and having to fend for her food and resources, she is selective with most alpha female dogs and on leash, she is reactive to most dogs to defend her human. She will also bark at some human on leash as she is protective of her human family. We have seen a lot of improvement on her and she is getting better on her walks and positive re-enforcement or distractions from the other dogs. She currently lives with three other dogs and loves her foster fur brothers very much!
She will need an experienced family or family willing to learn and grow with her. She has grown so much and we have seen a lot of improvement on her especially with the leash reactivity but she will need someone to continue her training in her forever home!
