Bernie's Story

Meet 8-year-old Bernie!<br/>Bernie traveled a long way to get to Satchel's. He came to us from Ohio and has been on a journey ever since. He's spent the last 4 years in our Woof Pack program spending several hours a week with his WP leader (Gail) working with him on his anxiety and opening up his life to new experiences all while we study Bernie to determine what kind of home would make this special boy be the best dog he can be. <br/>Bernie wasn't always agreeable to jumping in the car but he has learned it takes him further away for longer periods of time, it's not so scary and he can explore until his head is filled with adventure. Car rides are now one of his favorite things to do, riding shot gun, watching the world go by outside the passenger window. He loves to meet people of all ages on his adventures.<br/>Pack walks with other dogs and doggie playgroups are something Bernie enjoys. He would likely do well in a home with a canine companion or in a home where he has "his person" entirely to himself. We've found the mental stimulation of trainings such as Scent and Agility is keeping his mind occupied and times of anxiety are less frequent. Bernie loves laying around in the kiddie pools at Satchel's. He can be an escape artist and can't be left alone even in a fenced-in yard. <br/>Bernie is ready for his forever home! He would thrive with an active lifestyle, going places and doing things, exploring. A home with an outdoorsy person who can spend lots of time away from the house with Bernie. A crate would be Bernie's safe place when in the home. He is currently on meds for his anxiety but in a home with lots of activities and a loving caregiver, the meds could possibly be eliminated or at least minimized. <br/>For an appointment to meet Bernie, please submit the no obligation adoption application found at Satchelslastresort.org.
