A Guide to Resource Guarding in Dogs."   Zarah is a beautiful husky who can't wait to meet you!   Foster Home Feedback  ** Resource Guarding 11/25/24 Foster Feedback: We have had Zarah for little more than a month now. I can tell you she rides well in the car. She is kennel trained and has not had any accidents in her kennel. Zarah will whine a little when you put her in the kennel if you don't leave the house or go and come back without letting her out. She has done well being out of her kennel at night.  When we keep her in the room with us, she will sleep on or right next to us.  She has also spent some nights in her kennel without issue.  We have had her on a couple of walks where she does ok, with a little leash pulling but not bad.  She just needs a bit more practice.  Zarah seems to be ok with the cat. She is a little curious at first.  By telling her no and redirecting her as more time goes, she is less excited when she sees the cat. Zarah is on a regular feeding schedule and is doing well.  She was a little skinny when we first got her but is looking good now. She does have a little resource guarding.  To help with that issue we have limited the number of toys that are out and keep the dogs separated while eating. Zarah can be a little timid around new people, but she warms up quickly. We are going to be giving her a bath and brush in the next couple days, as her coat is blowing out a bit from regular husky shedding. ** Zarah is anaplasmosis positive. This is a tick-borne illness, and she is currently being treated with Doxycycline.  ** To view additional dogs available for adoption, please see our website: www.4luvofdog.org June 23, 2025, 9:08 pm
