How long will it take to settle into a new environment? 3-3-3 rule: First 3 days - Your dog may be overwhelmed and may hide, have a lack of appetite, or test boundaries. Give them space and time to adjust in a quiet room with their bed, food, water, and toys. 3 weeks - Your dog may start to settle in and their personality will emerge. You can expect behavior issues to arise, so set boundaries and expectations with positive reinforcement training. 3 months - Your dog should be comfortable and acclimated to your home. They should know their routine and expect meals and enrichment at specific times.
Any special needs or traits an adopter should know? King is a heavy chewer, therefore he can`t be left alone with toys that aren`t durable. It is recommended to keep him away from all human food and too muzzle him while outside so he doesn`t eat anything he shouldn`t.
Medical: Currently on anxiety medication, but may not need to be continued in a home, on a vet-prescribed gastro diet, Inflammatory Bowel Disease
