My name is Mama!

Rudy and His Mama - Rescue Intake Report

Introduction

• Both Rudy and his mother were quite feral when they first arrived at the rescue.

Mama's Background

• Mama is a 2-year-old female dog.


• She has been spayed and microchipped and is up-to-date on her vaccinations.


• When Mama first arrived, she and her baby were very feral and closed off. However, since being in the Rescue's care, they have become more open and affectionate, seeking attention and love.

Mama's Behavior and Training

• Mama learned to use the doggy door very quickly.


• She is accustomed to being crated at night.


• Mama is not yet fully housetrained, but she should pick up on it quickly with some additional training and time.


• Mama generally does well interacting with most dogs.

Recommendations

• Mama would do best in a home that can provide her with patience, care, and continued training to help her adjust and become better socialized.


• Her new family should be prepared to work on housetraining with her.


• She can be very jealous of other animals getting attention; she would be a great only dog or a dog that is not a lap dog.


• She has done good with kids that are not quick movers.  She would do best with older kids.


• With the right environment and support, Mama has great potential to become a loving, well-adjusted companion.
