My name is Rowan Giving!

Rowan was born around      and weighs about 55 pounds.  Rowan has experienced severe emotional and physical abuse from a special needs teenager in his previous home.  Rowan is timid and cautious, flinching at sudden movements or loud noises. He may cower or shy away from human touch, but deep down, he craves affection and reassurance. Rowan is in desperate need of a patient and loving home that can provide him with the safety, security, and rehabilitation he needs to heal and learn to trust again. We will be looking for a home for Rowan that has another 'bomb-proof' dog in it to help Rowan understand that humans can be really awesome. We will also be looking for a home with a physically fenced yard to ensure his safety.   If there are children in Rowan's next home, they must be older and have a firm understanding of Rowan's needs.  Rowan has never shown us aggression; instead, he chooses to cower or flee from the situation that makes him nervous.  We are told he is not good with cats, but we will be evaluating that ourselves as time goes on and Rowan becomes more comfortable. Rowan was likely dragged while on a leash at some point, and we will be continuing to work with him on his leash skills, but be prepared to further his training in this department.   Rowan has made incredible progress in his short time with us, and we feel in the correct home with experienced humans, he is going to continue to thrive, and his true goofy, happy, lab-like personality will overcome and outshine all the fear.
