Can I continue my recovery in your loving care?

Update: Tigger was adopted on October 2nd!

Tigger
cannot get enough belly rubs!

With those he knows and trusts, he loves to cuddle and sleep on a pillow next to you.

But trust does not come easy for this cute boy. He is recovering from abuse and lack of socialization.

Tigger is a Terrier & Toy mix, neutered, and approximately 4 years of age.

He made solid progress in a caring foster home. He is now housetrained and compatible with bigger dogs (though perhaps too alpha around dogs his size). His foster mom believes he will do best with another dog or two in his new home to help him adjust and fit in.

Besides with strangers, Tigger's fear and anxiety come to the surface reportedly when he is put in a crate or kennel. He also exhibits food aggression with bones and chews, perhaps due to previous starvation. When most fearful, he may hide under the bed and become nippy.

However, in a very patient and quiet home, with a stable routine and lots of love, Tigger will continue to gain self-esteem and fears will subside.

Please be committed to seeking the professional guidance of a trainer and/or behaviorist. Also, he must have no access to young children and this is a strict condition of his adoption.

The bottom line is we have helped dogs with far worse special needs than Tigger make full emotional recoveries from the worst of backgrounds. Tigger has tremendous potential and a loving heart, so our mission is to find him the experienced owner who will help him realize his full potential.
