My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

[Rescue Notes]

people: will bite for introductions with multiple people. seems to prefer males but always introduced to the public on muzzle.

playgroup notes: Selective, needs cherry picked group of socially appropriate dogs.

kennel: needs a double kennel for resource guarding

bite history: - yes, prior to Palmetto facility. upper torso bite when sitting on couch next to a human. There is no other information since bite was not documented with health department or MCAW
- yes July 2023 dog was in home and gave wife sitting on couch a level 3 bite, although there are slashes in both directions, this is from the movement of the victim, not the dog holding and shaking. bite looks to be a single tooth puncture that is shallower than the lenght of his canine.

- severe resource guarding in shelter ( no home notes) needs a double kennel.
- needs a familiar handler for medical/restraint
