My story

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

*** AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION, FOSTER, or FOSTER TO ADOPT ***

Meet Gene! He is a brand-new graduate of our P.A.C.K. Program, a 9-week intensive program for routine obedience, agility, and handling training with a prison inmate trainer and he is ready to show off his new skills! His new abilities include 'sit', 'wave', 'shake' and more! New adopters should realize that PACK Program graduates will require regular, ongoing reinforcement of learned behaviors in order for them to become permanent.

Gene is a sweet nervous boy. He was originally from a hoarding case, where he received minimal human interaction. Since he has been up at PACK, he has come a long way. He now seeks out human affection from time to time. He will always need a dog friend, as he does 1000 times better with a buddy. They help build his confidence.

He is sensitive with body handling due to his past. For this reason, Gene cannot go to a home with small children. He is going to do best in a home with another canine and a calmer and quiet environment.

He was too nervous when he first arrived to see how he reacted towards our cats. We do think he'll be scared of them and leave them alone though. Gene is good in his kennel and house trained too.

He is now in a foster home and is just dying to meet his new family! Apply to meet him today!
