Per his foster mom – Shuks gets sweeter by the day. He does fine with my three girl whippets, learning to use a doggy door, and is fine with grandchildren – 2 and 6 years (we do supervise). He has been gentle with both dogs and kids (and adults). The only draw back I’ve found is he doesn’t like to be grabbed by his collar. He doesn’t bite or growl – just flinches. So we’re working on that. Overall he’s a very good boy! Even the vet said he was wonderful to work with today!! Shuks really wants to be loved. Kennels well, eating normally, walks on leash, does well with male and female dogs – Unknown how he would do with cats or small pets, but wouldn’t put him with a cat. Not a barker – should make somebody a very nice pet. Shuks is being fostered outside the WRAP volunteer system, so please contact Jennifer the Regional Advisor listed above for more information.
