Mama

Labrador Retriever

Mama came in with a whole slew of puppies. The trapper originally said she thought it was just 4 or 5 pups but it ended up being 10! She was living in a shed and being fed but has had limited human interaction. All her puppies have since been adopted. She loves other dogs and would do well in a home that has another playful dog to bring her out of her shell. She loves to rough house and play tug of war with smaller dogs. Dogs bigger than her are sort of scary and she'll need time to warm up to the big ones. She has been out in the yard with calmer dogs before as well & has done fine. There is only one dog she did not like (Rocko) who was bigger and approaches other dogs like a tank. A meet and greet with any other dogs in the home will be required. She goes outside and kennels up well but is fearful of human interaction. She allows us to sit in the kennel with her and will take a treat from our hand but is fearful of being petted. The rescue is primarily interested in getting her into a foster home that may be adoption minded once she settles in. There are only so many social skills we can teach in a kennel setting. She is spayed, up to date on rabies/bordatella/DHPPv/heartworm preventative.
