Honeybun

Honeybun! This almost 6 yr old beauty lives up to her name. Sweet as Honey... to her humans at least, but SOMEBODY did not get the "sharing is caring" memo. Honeybun wants her people all to herself. What we're saying is: Honeybun would thrive as an only dog. And it's not just people, she also thinks any kinds of "treasures" in her reach are fair game. This includes anything a girl her size can reach on the countertops. Fair is fair right? <br/>She's like a little furry dragon. She takes her treasures, piles them into a spot and then guards them like they're gold. She doesnt chew or destroy the things she hoards, she just likes to have them close, (unless it's a snack). She's very vocal and will growl when she has her "treasures." But this is girl is all talk. <br/>What we just described here is called "resource guarding" which can include guarding humans as well as "stuff". It's pretty common in a lot of dogs. Resource guarding does require some management, but is markedly easier when there are not other dogs around trying to steal her stash (or small children). Honeybun is super smart and very treat motivated, with some direction and a watchful eye bad habits (like counter surfering) can become a thing of the past. Lastly, Honeybun is on daily (inexpensive) medication for her thyroid. <br/>Could Honeybun be an "Only Princess" in your home? Our adoptions require an approved application. You can find that application on our website at austincockerrescue.org Already approved applicants can email us at woof@austincockerrescue.org We adopt to within the state of Texas only.
