My story

Patronus originally came to CVHS when her family recognized her youthful exuberance was just way too much energy for their young kids and small home. Patronus is truly a very large puppy, with no past guidance on how to contain her joy (or frustration) in a manageable way. We have been working with her to gain some skills for polite greetings, walking nicely on a leash, and calm behavior when needed, while giving her plenty of opportunities to express her zest for life! She loves to zoomie around our play yards, and she REALLY loves toys, so play is a great way spend time with this goofy girl!She was adopted briefly, and has returned because the environment was not suited to her needs. An active neighborhood, with lots of people and dogs to bark at, while still working on leash skills, only added to her reactivity. Back here with us, we are resuming her training for staying calm on leash, polite greetings, impulse control, and assessing how she truly feels about other dogs. She needed work on her dog skills when she first came to us, and we are continuing to help her with that. Patronus is a work in progress, as are all puppies, especially those that did not get training and socialization when really young, and she`s looking for a fun, energetic, and loving person to make the journey with her. A fenced-in space to get her exercise, without the constant need to work on leash reactivity, would be especially helpful for this big, active girl!A 5-week Good Manners training course is included in Patronus` $350.00 adoption fee. Please call the Adoption Center at 802-476-3811, or email info@centralvermonthumane.org, to schedule a time to talk to an adoption counselor about her, and to determine if you should meet Patronus.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Patronus, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
