BumbleBee has arrived here on planet HSWC along with 2 other Autobots, they are posing as dogs so they can blend in. BumbleBee is a sweet fella who has had some modifications done to streamline his ears. Maybe to reduce the air resistance and run faster. BumbleBee has been designed with a beautiful coat and a sweet personality. As he tries to figure things out on this new planet he is working his way into the hearts of the staff and volunteers. He is staying under the radar, trying to be a low key observer of our community. He presents himself timid, then friendly, with a hint of humor. As he expands his friend base we hope to learn all of his secrets. Come out and watch the transformation from autobot to loyal best friend. He has been through alot with his two companions. It would seem they were previously kept inside and well taken care of before they were dumped together. Possibly mother/ sister and father family unit. They keep their kennels neat and are respectful of others. Bumble has met some cats and seemed to be inquisitive but timid. He's processing what they are. His new leader will need to teach him the purpose of the fuzzy friends. Positive reinforcement is essential to success with Bumble. He might have come from a harsh environment. He is learning to love. Learning to see the good in people. All things new need to go slowly as he transitions to your world. Separating and low key are the keys to Bumble's Success. The two week transition shut down will be important for him to understand what is expected and not become overwhelmed. We know he is excited to see Mom/sister. But beyond that relationship he will need time to adjust to other dogs. He may not have had the best father son relationship. 😻✔️ok with cats 🐶 ✔️ok with Mom/Sister dogs.❓other dogs unknown. He seems excited and curious as he passes by other dogs. Easy to walk up the kennels. 🚖 ✔️Sweet personality. ❤️ All the charm of a vintage camero- Good looks and zippy around town! ✔️Housetrained. 🚫no groups of people. Too much, too soon might be more than he can process right now 🚫no young kids right now. Very timid. 🚫👋no fast hands. Even when he knows you, quick movements are still startling and cause this fine fella to transform back into a scared autobot. 🍔food will always be high value item for him. He came to this planet thin. Feed separately. Understanding that he might have had an abrupt owner previously. Trust is coming but it takes T Time L Love C consistency And patience. He will become the best, most loyal friend❤️ Primary Color: Brown Secondary Color: White Weight: 54.2 Age: 2yrs 3mths 2wks

More about this shelter
The Humane Society of Wicomico County was started in 1968 by a group of people who wanted to help improve the lives of animals. We have come a long way in our 40+ years! We have a staff dedicated to making sure the animals that come to our doors are loved and protected as they wait for their forever home. Not only are our animals vaccinated, wormed and given flea preventative, we can treat animals that come to us with mange, ringworm, heartworm and pay for animals to be seen by an outside vet should there be a need. We have an on-site spay/neuter clinic that not only is used for our animals but we also offer low cost spay/neuter for animals of the public. We provide emergency boarding for victims of domestic abuse, fire, and medical emergencies. We also have the capability to set up an off-site emergency shelter for people evacuated from their homes. In addition, we have an education program to help teach kids about being a responsible pet guardian. We work with a wide range of rescue groups and our animals have been transported from our mid-Atlantic area throughout the North Eastern United States. Our shelter is an open admission shelter and we will take in approximately 3500 animals this year. We do what we do because of our love for animals and our desire to make a difference in their lives every single day.
