However, if her bestie is along, she'd ride across country.<br/> <br/>Good on a leash: <br/>Truffles has made amazing progress, however we still use a chain leash and prong collar as she occasionally will still decide she doesn't wish to cooperate. <br/><br/>Energy level: medium<br/><br/>Need a fenced in yard: Yes, Truffles is no fan of leashed walks. She loves to race and play with her resident bestie and other resident dogs.<br/><br/>Dog Friendly: Yes. She lived her whole life with other dogs, and takes great solace with having friends. Truffles can be a bit rough playing, but loves all our dogs. <br/><br/>If yes, does your foster need another dog in its adoptive?<br/><br/>Absolutely, over the past almost two years, Truffles has made a lot of progress, but needs the confidence of a friend, to know that you can be trusted.<br/><br/>Cat Friendly? <br/>She is fine with our dog savvy cats <br/><br/>Kid Friendly: Unknown<br/><br/>If yes, what's the youngest child you'd recommend they be placed with? Kids old enough to give her space and understand that Truffles is a special girl who is not interested in attention. Truffles does not do well with lots of noise and activity so a home without young children would be best. Best suited for children 12- Up.<br/><br/>Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them? <br/><br/>Truffles was rescued from a horrific abusive hoarding ‘rescue' situation in Georgia, where she lived in an outdoor pen with numerous other dogs, and was literally feral when she was pulled. Since arriving, Truffles has made great progress, but she will never be an affectionate carefree dog, and needs an adopter who understands her needs and patience. Truffles will require another dog in the home to ease her transition. Adopter must live in a single family home, as Truffles loves to bark! <br/>Adopting Truffles will require multiple meets until Truffles feels comfortable with her adopter.<br/><br/>Fosters Location: Harrington, DE<br/><br/>Application can be found here: https://www.grrde.org/adoption-application (if you already have an approved application on file email GrassRootsDE@gmail.com and ask the app team to pull your app
