Mowgli.

Update on Mowgli!

Mowgli had gone into foster a few weeks ago when a volunteer/Dog Behaviorist had come in and fell in love - She decided he needed a better chance to settle in so she took him home. Here is what she had to say on him:

Currently Mowgli is in a foster home learning how to trust people again. Mowgli is a wonderful dog as long as he has another dog with him. An ideal home for him, is a home that already has a trained, playful dog.

With another dog Mowgli is 100% potty trained, he knows his basic commands, he is perfect on a leash, and great with cats and other dogs, he is playful and snuggly - the perfect dog. He is shy around new people, but will warm up after spending some time with him. However - without another dog Mowgli is very afraid, and has almost no confidence. He will hide away, have accidents in the house, shake when people come near him, and he will not listen to commands

Mowgli desperately needs a dog 'mentor', and his owner must have lots of patience, and a firm, but gentle method of training. Mowgli loves to chew on bones and bully sticks, he is learning how to play fetch, and he enjoys toys that squeak. He also enjoys running behind you when you are rollerblading! Once he warms up to you, he will follow you around the house, and give you lots of kisses and snuggles.

Mowgli is a 5 month old Shepherd cross he was transferred to us from another shelter with his brother, Baloo. They had been brought to the other shelter when they were around eight weeks old. Two workers at a dump had witnessed them being abandoned with the trash and rescued them.
