Papaya

My story

This pet needs emergency placement. Please click here to go to our emergency placement page for more information.Papaya is at risk due to behavioral reasons. Papaya has been observed to be kennel reactive and rope reactive during his stay in the care center. Papaya will intensely cage fight with the neighboring dogs, at times escalating to spinning towards the handler and beginning leash biting. Papaya has also been observed to jump up and bite the leash while on walks. While with the handler Papaya is receptive to treats. Medically Papaya is apparently healthy.What my friends at ACC say about me:It is unknown if I have ever lived with other animals or children.My history is a mystery and my friends here do not know much about me yet!I would do best in a home with only adult humans.Not only do I pull at heart strings, but I also pull on leash! I will need someone to help me with my leash manners.I am looking for a home with a patient person.I am finding the shelter a little overwhelming, but when it's just you and me and some peace and quiet you'll see what a love bug I am. Primary Color: Brown Brindle Weight: 53 Age: 2yrs 0mths 2wks
