Animal Profile: Banks was born in the rescue 11/05/22. He was adopted as a puppy, but started showing resource guarding behavior in the home; it was mainly directed at the senior male dog but he was also vocal about being bothered when he was asleep on the couch. Banks was very loved, but his family realized they could not provide the structure he needs to thrive. Banks regularly attended doggy daycare, and does well in a stable pack. True to the Doberman breed, Banks is family oriented, incredibly smart, affectionate and athletic.
Adopter Profile:
Large breed dog experience required
Doberman experience a plus
No first time dog owners
Securely fenced yard preferred
Single family residence required (no apartments)
Foster Update: Banks was fostered here as a puppy, and seemed to fall right back in line with our current pack (chihuahua mix, another male Doberman and a 50lb cattle dog mix). When he returned, we implemented good structure and routine, and focused efforts on his obedience. With a focus on a strong foundational relationship, Banks has shown zero resource guarding with food, chews or toys with his foster family. He will curl his lip in a dog approaches his bowl when eating, so he is only given his food and chews in his crate. Banks now heels well on leash, has good recall, knows basic obedience commands sit, down, crate and place command. Banks has also started e collar introduction for off leash freedom and recall. He is loyal, affectionate, loving, and incredibly intelligent. Banks will need an owner with large/working breed experience that could set healthy boundaries in the home otherwise he will test boundaries.
Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $550, which includes spay/neuter required within 90 days, age appropriate vaccinations, deworming and microchip. All adoption fees are donations to a Washington non-profit corporation and all donations go to benefit the animals in our rescue.
