MYA HAS A NEW HOME AND FAMILY
UPDATE AFTER 1 DAY IN FOSTER:
Our Foster wrote:
Maya is doing very well. She's eating, bathrooming and following direction. She is obviously crate trained, slept in crate very quietly all night. She is accepting my pack although they are a little wary of her, she has that alpha thing going on :) Shell be ready for a home when a family comes along.
Maya had an issue with a Chiauaha at GCHS but they said it was a nasty little dog that antagonized Maya first. She's been fine with Marcus (my Cocker ) but if the new family has dogs a meet and greet would probably be good. I haven't seen her with kids/cats but it's listed that she's ok with them. She's very sensitive about her left ear so new family has to understand it is hurting her. She's on a strong ear drop, only use for 7 days, so hopefully we'll see ear improvement each day. It is taking 2 of us to clean and medicate it though.
I've used a prong collar on her and I would highly suggest new family have one, this is a very big, strong girl and will need training to establish the new family as her alpha, otherwise she is quite dominate and may decide she is in charge..
Oh, she also rode beautifully in my van. I do suggest her new owners know how to take leadership role with a dog, she really needs to know that people set the rules, not her. I hope we have the right family for her :)
