Buck & Jojo - In Foster Care!'s Story

UPDATE from their Foster Mom:<br/><br/>Their foster mom says they are affectionate, listen to commands well, they don't display resource guarding and are not destructive. While they are a bit verablly reactive to other dogs on leash, they do well around other family members' dogs and basically ignore them when they share space. (Barrier reactivity is incredibly common, especially in the bossy herding breeds). <br/><br/>While at the foster family's farm setting, Buck & Jojo were described as the easiest fosters they've ever had! (they were both raised on a farm). While at the foster family's more suburban home, they faced some challenges as the city life was not a setting that these two are used to, but they're adjusting as best they can and learning every day! They're used to being kenneled and do well with that whenever they need structure, or if strangers come into the home and their protective nature kicks in.<br/><br/><br/>Original Bio:<br/>Let us introduce you to Jojo (brown & white female) and Buck (black and grey male). Jojo & Buck are 9 year old Heeler mixes who were surrendered because they got ahold of some chickens. They had lived on the same farm/with the same family since they were 10 weeks old, so understandably, the shelter environment was incredibly confusing for them when they first got here.<br/><br/>They lived mostly outdoors, but did come inside the home as well. They're friendly with people and other pets, they simply cannot live where they'd have access to chickens. (and they do seem to have a bit of a workup when they see tiny dogs, which could be their natural prey drive) <br/><br/>Both Buck & Jojo are adjusting SO well to the shelter life! They were a bit shy at first, but now they're outgoing, funny and playful! They both keep their kennels clean and wait to potty until they're outside. They love their dog beds, they love going for walks with our volunteers, and they enjoy time outside together. Both are treat motivated and already know basic commands! <br/><br/>Both are super spunky and will keep you giggling every day! They have such big personalities and are incredibly affectionate. <br/><br/>We are doing all meet n' greets BY APPOINTMENT ONLY after an adoption application has been approved.<br/>Please fill out the following PDF Application and email to monroecountydogshelter@gmail.com<br/>https://www.co.monroe.wi.us/home/showpublisheddocument/35564<br/><br/>Their combined adoption fee has been sponsored! They are both fixed and current on vaccines.
