Farmhouse Plans: Heading Home K9 Rescue

Heading Home K9 Rescue

Meet Cagney! Cagney did not experience much love, attention, or life as part of a family previously. Although cautious at first, she will win you over with her sweet personality. This beautiful girl would be most grateful to go to a quieter forever home, and you will be so glad that you gave her one.

AGE: 11 years

SIZE: 16", ~25 lbs.

TEMPERAMENT: Shy, very sweet, likes attention from people once she gets used to them, but it will take an extended period of time. She will respond more readily when allowed to approach on her terms.

FENCE: A secure physical fence (vinyl, wood or chain link), with secure gates and with direct access from the house is required. Cagney is a high flight risk due to her previous inexperience in a pet home environment.

DOGS: Cagney has displayed a moderate dominance with some other dogs. She would do fine as an only dog, or in a home with a non-dominant dog.

CATS: Ignores the dog-savvy cat in her foster home.

KIDS: Unknown - no kids in her foster home. She should not go to a home with young kids due to her shyness. She may do fine with calm, gentle children who are older (age 12 ).

HOUSE-TRAINED: With a routine of scheduled potty times, and limited freedom, Cagney has done well with housetraining. Her adopter will need to continue with this, especially intially.

CRATE TRAINED: Yes

OBEDIENCE TRAINING: Not yet.

LEASH MANNERS: Due to her flight risk, we do not recommend leash walks for Cagney.
