7yr neutered GSD 89 lbs. Owner Surrender Adoptable, adults only No other dogs required Low energy Known history of aggression disclosure form Cisco Kidd was anxiously barking at the front when the runner approached. His body was relaxed, his eyes were neutral, his ears were up, his mouth was open with a heavy pant, and his tail was neutral with a loose wag. He was easy to leash and remove. He pulled strongly on leash, and was easy to collar. In the catch pen, he barked, growled, and snapped at the other dogs through the fence. He was muzzled prior to entering the yard. He continued barking at the other dogs before he sat down and panted heavily. He was easy to steer, but approached each dog in turn and tried to fight with them. The other dogs did not engage in an altercation with him& he eventually went to lie down in the pool. However, anytime the dogs moved closer to him, he would jump out and try to fight with them. The handlers were able to steer him away from the dogs, but he never became comfortable with their presence. He allowed the handler to pet him all over with no issues, but yelped and pulled his right front foot away when the handler squeezed the toes. However, he remained easy to handle. The muzzle was removed, and the handler repeated the assessment. He leaned against the handler and allowed her to pet his whole body again. He seemed to really enjoy having his ears scratched. After a few minutes, he began to anxiously nip at the handler's fingers. Otherwise, he remained easy to handle.

Are you tired of seeing sad posts? im tired of posting them, too. But who will be their voice? If not we? They were once awesome Family dogs (likely from breeders) with happy pictures, too. We don’t change sad pictures by just not posting them or ignoring them. We change them by getting them seen and into a save home or foster home 💜 together we can reach so much 🙏🏽
