Grant

Grant is a special dog with unique needs and a lot of potential. He has received both basic and professional training to help him manage fear-based reactions and other behaviors. With the right person—someone patient, consistent, and attentive—Grant can continue building confidence and become more comfortable around other dogs over time.<br/><br/>Grant forms strong bonds with his people and truly enjoys learning. He already knows several commands, including sit, down, wait, place, drop, give, and “get your toy.” He thrives on mental stimulation and especially loves nose work, such as searching for treats hidden around the yard in boxes or other props.<br/><br/>Because Grant has a high prey drive and can be reactive around other dogs, he would do best in a home without young children, cats, or small animals. He benefits from clear guidance and structure, so he needs a confident, experienced handler who can provide calm leadership. Grant may react to other dogs when his person is nearby and interacting with them, so this is something his adopter will need to be mindful of when managing his environment.<br/><br/>Despite these challenges, Grant has a fun and playful personality. He’s a bit of a goofball and absolutely loves his toys—so much so that he often likes to carry them around in his mouth. Using toys as rewards during training works especially well for him. Another bonus: Grant handles baths and nail trims very well.<br/><br/>Grant developed tendonitis in his leg due to the attack he experienced before Useless Bay Sanctuary captured him (see our facebook page to learn his complete rescue story). His condition may cause occasional discomfort, but with proper care and attention, he can still live a normal, happy and fulfilling life.<br/><br/>If you’re interested in meeting Grant, please reach out and include your phone number for the quickest response.
