1.) Health Condition
* Spayed.
* Microchipped, and recovered completely from heartworm.
2.) Rescue Story
* Boonie was found living on the streets in the cold winter, caring for her puppies. When a report was received and rescuers arrived at the scene, she was wearing a tightly fastened collar and nursing her babies on the roadside. She was very underweight and her and her puppies’ health were a major concern, so they were rescued immediately.
3.) Basic Information
* With People: Seems to have been hurt by people in the past, so she is super shy snd it takes time for her to open up. When meeting someone one-on-one, she gets nervous and whines. However, comes closer and gently accepts petting if you approach slowly.
* With Dogs: Really loves other dogs! Though a bit shy around overly enthusiastic new friends, she gets along well and plays happily with others.
* With Cats: Showed no particular interest when encountering cats outdoors.
* Separation Anxiety: Unknown since she’s currently living at our center. Needs training from scratch.
* Potty Training: Does currently outdoor potty since she’s living currently at our center.
* Hygiene: Is good at baths, and tolerates nail trimming and brushing. Because Boonie is still fearful of people, grooming is only possible inside the kennel. Although there is some slight growling before you begin, Boonie accepts the grooming well once it starts.
* Walks: Still getting used to walking on a leash and is currently in training. Used to chew leashes due to a strong repulsion to them, but has stopped with repeated training. Lately, maintains eye contact and follows along well without pulling. Because of a general fear of people, prefers to keep some distance while walking. Sudden loud noises or passing cars can cause her to bolt or startle. If she doesn't want to walk, there might be a slight nibble on the leash, but she follows immediately when told "No." Shows no significant reaction to seeing cats during walks.
* Car Sickness: Had no motion sickness during short trips to foster home.
* Biting: Is very timid around people, so we are currently observing and training to check for any "defensive nipping." While there is a slight growl when grooming starts, she has not attempted to bite.
* Barking: When face-to-face with a person, may whine or make crying sounds. Also tends to bark excitedly when it’s mealtime to ask for food faster.
* Likes: Loves treats! However, is still a bit shy and prefers not to eat while being watched. Small, treat-sized snacks perfect for nose-work are a favorite, and she will actively eat them if they are tossed over.
* Dislikes: Feels uncomfortable when someone approaches while making direct, intense eye contact or reaches out a hand abruptly. Overall, Buni is still quite fearful of humans and needs a patient approach.
