Story
This is Winter. Her journey started in Texas, where she was found in a box on the side of the road as a tiny puppy. She was rescued thankfully, and then brought to NJ where was adopted as a puppy in October. Winter recently was returned to us. Her family was devastated, but they said Winter was not a good fit for them. You see, Winter is a timid dog. She was living with two young children. The constant activity of a busy household with kids visiting and running around was just too much for her and they realized she needed a quieter environment. We think she would thrive in a quiet and calm home. Winter is a very intelligent girl and picks up on energy. She doesn’t like baby talk, but seems to really respond well to confident humans. She would do best with a family who has older kids, if any at all. She also seems to like large dogs, and may do well with a confident dog in the home. No cats for this gal, as she thinks they’re fun to chase. Winter is not an ideal dog for first-time dog owners, and to be honest, will probably require a bit of work to earn her trust. But oh my goodness, once you’ve earned the trust of a scared dog, it’s like you’ve leveled up in life. Talk about a rewarding experience! Winter is about 50 lbs and will probably not get any bigger, though she may fill out. She’s a kind dog with a gentle soul who is just begging to be understood and appreciated for who she is. She will be a wonderful companion for anyone who puts in the time and effort to show her the world is not such a scary place. If you can open your heart and home to adopting or fostering Winter, please go to ehrdogs.org and apply. Located in Flanders, NJApril 25, 2024, 12:45 am
