Story
Name: SullyBreed: Chihuahua MixAge: 6 yearsGender: Male (Neutered)Size: Small, Approx. 10 lbsAbout Sully:Sully is a brilliant and resilient little guy who has made remarkable progress since arriving at the shelter. Initially showing signs of fear-based aggression and resource guarding, he’s been working hard on overcoming these challenges with the help of positive reinforcement training. Sully is highly intelligent and is already showing a great understanding of leash communication and verbal cues. While he still has some work to do in building confidence, he is showing increasing comfort in new situations and learning that the world doesn’t have to be a scary place. He thrives in calm, structured environments where he feels safe and secure. His personality is blossoming as he continues to form trusting bonds with his human handlers.Ideal Home:Sully will do best in a quiet, patient home with an experienced dog owner who understands fear-based behaviors and is willing to invest time and effort into furthering his progress. This home should be free from young children and visiting children, as Sully has shown signs of fear around them. Due to his past experiences with bullying by other dogs, he needs a home where he can be the only pet, at least for now. He would excel in a home with a consistent routine and structured training where his confidence can continue to grow.Training and Skills:Sully has been working on basic obedience and has made significant progress. He knows how to walk nicely on a leash and responds well to verbal cues such as “sit” and “stay.” He’s also showing improvement in his understanding of personal boundaries. While he is crate-trained and housebroken, he will benefit from ongoing, positive reinforcement-based training to continue building trust and confidence.Favourites:Sully loves cozy blankets and a comfy spot to relax in. He also enjoys small training treats as part of his positive reinforcement sessions.Dislikes:Sully has a strong aversion to unfamiliar people or situations that may feel threatening to him. He is also protective of his resources (food, toys, etc.), which can lead to resource guarding behaviors if not properly managed. Due to his previous experiences, he does not enjoy interactions with other dogs and prefers to be the only pet in the household.Health Information:Sully is neutered and up-to-date on all vaccinations. He is healt
