  6. PAWThisWeekSeptember 3,2024Page6of7NEEDS FOSTER HOMEJOEL-This one-year-old, 70-pound handsome boy from VA has been displacedtwice throughno fault of his own. His first family had to move into an apartment, and the second family had a baby and no longer had time for him. He is a sweet fellow, has been around kids and other dogs, and loves everyone he meets. He’s not doing too well in the kennel and a foster home is imperative and urgent. Evena short term stay in a home would help. Please contact Michelle at dog-coordinator@paw-rescue.orgif you might be able to help.DOBBYis a 5-year old, 84-lb mixed breed with perhaps Great Dane and terrier.He does not weighthatbecause he is tall -he is a chunky monkey who needs to lose a few pounds!He has lived in a home the past three years but sadly was given up when the family had medical issues.He is a happy friendly boy, that listens well. He's great company very attentive, great with children, great with family.Dobby is a big snuggle bug.He wants to give kisses to every person he meets.As an adult dog he does not have overwhelming exercise needs -he is happy playing in the yard and walking around the block.Dobby had formal training and knows basic commands such as;Sit,Stay,Leave it,Come,Outside (he's housebroken, but he will let you know with a little whimper if he'd like to go outside to use the bathroom),Inside (When it's time to go inside this includes his crate),Off (whenever you'd like him not to jump up family or furniture),Bed (Whenever you'd like him to lay down for the evening or take a nap),Eat,(his favorite no matter what he's doing he will come when you say this). Fun fact, he's conditioned to sit and wait to eat until after you've said "Grace" and said "Amen".Yes, he's such a little gentleman. Heloves to play tug of war and fetch andhe will bring it back to you and expect you to tug on it for a couple of seconds then give him the command "Leave it" to let go and start the game again.He's also conditioned for bath's so he'll give you no trouble.He's a playful guy but alsoknows when to calm down.He is very treat motivated and will do anything for treat.He has absolutely no food aggression, he will take the smallest treat from your hand gently and he's always up for walk.He would loveto sleep at the foot of your bed but he's perfectly happy in his own bed in front of the door or window.He can be dog selective so he may be better as an only dog, but we don't really know yet and will update when we learn more.Please contact Michelle at dog-coordinator@paw-rescue.orgif you might be interested.
