My story

SHE BOUNCES LIKE TIGGER! Getrude is working on socialization! She deserves the chance for socialization in a loving home that understands she startles with noises and needs very consistent routine. No signs of aggression! She is working on playing with toys and is a shy lovely girl with a gentle spirit. According to her foster home, "she want to please humans and dogs-but her insecurity/nervousness can make her movements jerky." Getrude could go to a home with an older, calmer dog to follow. Can't go to a home with another fearful/anxious dog. She loves peanut butter kongs, soft toys, and wants to play with her foster dogs! She is being housetrained, and is receiving antianxiety meds, and priloscec otc. Will need crate training. Will need extra time and repetitions to fully incorporate new commands. Experienced adopter needed who understands a dog with anxiety ; needs fenced in yard. Knows basic commands such as Sit, Paw, Quiet, No, Wait, Nice, Stay patience and routine oriented - willing to continue to work with a DVM behaviorist. She has 2 speeds: really fast or dead stop! :) Diagnosed with global anxiety -(non aggressive), "G" has fallen in love with another Great Dane in the foster home! Gertie knows the following commands-Sit, Paw, Quite, No, Wait, Nice, Stay! Has made great progress!
