My name is Griselda!

This pet needs emergency placement. Please click here to go to our emergency placement page for more information.



Griselda is at risk due to behavior concerns. Her owner reported that she bit and held onto a dog after growling when owner attempted to introduce her to another dog. In the care center, Griselda is observed to lunge at dogs and small animals. Griselda is social, allowing pets and seeking attention from staff. Previously, Griselda was observed to hypersalivating, licking and attempting to the bite the kennel glass. Staff moved her back into the kennel room and saw some improvement. However, recently, Griselda has begun to hard pant and lick at her kennel bars. Griselda is now exhibiting more intense behaviors, including jumping up, barking loudly, and trying to engage in kennel fights with the neighboring dog. She has also started jumping up repeatedly on her handler, and this behavior is proving difficult to redirect. Despite our best efforts by offering daily enrichment, Griselda is having a hard time adjusting to the stress of the shelter environment. Medically, Griselda is apparently healthy.

What my friends at ACC say about me:

I need a home where there are no other pets.

I would appreciate slow introductions to new people and places to help me feel safe.

I prefer to call the shots and enjoy coming to you when I'm ready for pets.

I'm ready to learn! I need a patient person who has the time to work on training with me.
