Dog's Name: Gracie
Location : Fort Atkinson, WI
Age or Date of Birth: July 2021 (estimate)
Gender: Female
Breed: Cane Corso
Foster Dog's Weight: 70 lbs

Dogs?:
All Dogs
Needs a slow introduction to other dogs

Kids?:
Older kids, needs slow introduction
Gracie is a new momma who is still getting her bearings and settled into her new role. With such she is still balancing her emotions with other dogs and strangers. Right now she prefers only company of her foster momma and occasional sniffs through the gate of her foster sister (dog) but is not a fan of her foster brother (dog). Prior to giving birth she was skeptical of children so she will need to be re-evaluated after her pregnancy hormones have subsided.
Gracie is still working on her developing herself after becoming a momma, she currently is still having s ome stranger aggression with growling/barking as well as aggression with male dogs. She intermittently shows aggression towards her foster sister when she is around the puppies, but continues to show improvement with this. As expected with her rough start to life she does have some food aggression which is alleviated with separate feeding. She loves to be pampered and snuggled, but also loves to play
with her foster sister.
Who would be her perfect family? Despite her traumaatized past, Gracie continues to listen very well and would not necessarily require a fenced in yard if supervised. She does have a prey drive for squirrels and birds though. The perfect adopter wouldn’t have any young children as the few interaction she has had with them so far have shown aggressive/targeting behaviors towards the child (staring/ slow predatory walk followed by attempted lunge) and female dogs that are more submissive, however this may change as her puppies become more independent. It would be beneficial for her to be adopted by a home that is familiar with or a previous owner of guardian breeds and their temperment as Gracie is a combo of many of those breeds. Gracie is also very strong for her size.
