Meet Andre
When he came into care he was shut down, unsocialized, untrusting, and terrified. It took him days to leave his kennel, and a month to walk on a leash or even have the courage to step outside. Even the simplest things were huge mountains for Andre to conquer. As one can imagine, it has taken awhile for Andre to trust and adjust to dog life, and we have celebrated each baby step along the way. Recently, he has been spending time at doggy daycare socializing with other dogs and people and that has helped his progress even more!
Top 10 things to know about Andre:
1. Former feral street dog - fearful and skittish with new people / experiences and a flight risk
2. Goofy, hilarious, FUN, loving, and sensitive!
3. Dog friendly!
4. Cats - no thank you!
5. Kids - respectful older kids may be considered
6. Anxious in new situations but has weaned from daily meds with routine and structure
7. Intelligent - knows basic commands plus some fun tricks
8. Very loyal once he fully trusts you
9. Takes longer to warm up to men in general, and does best meeting new people outside of his home
10. Loves walks & exploring
Some of Andre's needs:
1. Patient & understanding humans who can be leaders as he looks to his people for guidance. Multiple meets may be necessary prior to taking him home.
2. Quiet home with secure 5-6 ft fence
3. Flight risk precautions must be taken to keep him safe & secure. This is VERY important while he adapts and must be taken seriously.
4. Experience with fearful dogs preferred
5. Would likely do best with a confident dog friend but can adjust to being a solo-dog.
Andre is available for foster transfer or adoption to the right home.
