My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Perry is a courtesy post for Valley Dogs Rescue.

Perry is a sweet dog, but needs humans that have older kids. He is currently getting very anxious with the smaller children in his current home. He has quite a bit of anxiety (typical for the breed). His anxiety has decreased since being adopted because his current family hired a dog behaviorist and used an e-collar for training. He has also felt comfort in learning to go to his place which is a specific dog beds around the house when given the command. He’s potty trained, crate trained and goes to his “bed” (place).

Pack walks have also helped. He has siblings in his current household that are much larger. He’s good on the leash too. He will sometimes snap into his anxiety, but he just needs correction and he’s good. Sometimes he needs to go back on the ecollar for reminder training.

He was adopted when young from another rescue, but they have since closed. His family is in no rush to find him his forever home, but they just know he would be more comfortable living his longer little dog life in a quieter home. Please contact Ian if you have any interest in meeting this sweet little guy!
