My personality

My story

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

My name is Shadow. I am a mix breed doodle, most likely a Bernese mountain dog mixed with a mini poodle. I’m 3 years old. I am very shy, I still like my food put in the kennel so I feel safe when I eat. I really like freeze dried liver or chicken treats. I'm getting better about taking them from your hand. I lived my previous life very secluded so I have had to learn all of my manners. I will wear a collar and/ or a harness now without a problem. I go out to potty on a leash and I am still unsure when it is time to hook it up. I'm getting better. I pretty much figured out potty training, but sometimes my signals aren't the best and they get missed. I started taking my meals in a kennel so I felt safe. I still eat in there but, I've gotten comfortable enough that I will drink out of the community water bowl.
I really like to go visit my extended foster family, they have a fence and other younger dogs for me to watch. I don't interact with the dogs much but I really study what they are doing. Sometimes I get an upset tummy in the car. I haven't the last couple of rides so maybe I am out growing that.
I love children and tolerate adults well. My foster family think I am very handsome after I got my 1st hair cut ever. I am very quiet, no barking, but if I get startled I will run as fast as I can to my safe place. Here, at my foster house that is my mom's bed. Fireworks on the 4th didn't really bother me, I'd just lift my head up off the couch and put it back down. I didn't have any toys before so I am not sure what to do with them. I also had never been on a walk, I will walk nicely on a 6ft leash, just slightly behind my foster mom. We can't go too far I start to get nervous. I am very sweet pup and will do well with patients and lots of love.
Shadow is up to date on vaccines, neutered, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $400. If you are interested in adopting Shadow, please email adoptions.protectingpaws@gmail.com
