About Celia | |
|
|
Celia would be a great dog for most families, especially with a playful dog. She loves other dogs and has been great meeting large and small dogs on her walks. She enjoys playing with her foster dog siblings and she loves toys, especially squeaky balls! She could live with a dog-savvy cat; she is currently living with a cat, but he likes to keep her guessing. She is very curious about him. She will run if he runs and walks when he walks, so as much as she wants to be near him, she doesn’t have much of a prey drive. Not much interest in squirrels or birds when we walk either.
Celia is pretty easy to walk but will lunge and bark at bikes and motorcycles. She has recently started barking at some adults that we pass. Distracting her with a treat and having her sit works almost all of the time.
Celia has been malnourished/starved and neglected in her past, so she is constantly looking for food. Celia needs a family who will watch her carefully because she can be very sneaky and will dig into the trash and will climb on tables/counters for food. She has some separation anxiety so her counter-surfing is 100x worse when you leave the house. She should be crated when someone is not home. She has learned how to escape from her crate, so her crate must be 100% secure.
On the other hand, she is extremely food motivated and has been pretty quick to pick up commands. She knows sit, down, stay, and will go potty on command in the morning, before bed, and after meals. She also knows “heel” except that she thinks it means stare at you while walking until you give her a treat.
Physically, she is a little small/short for a Rottie, but she's got that perfect Rottweiler block head! She is about 65-70lbs, which I think is a good weight for her. She has some front teeth that are slightly chipped but it doesn't impact her chewing or eating. She has some signs of hip soreness. She is slow to sit, but the vet noted that she's not in any pain and has been able to do some slow jogs with her foster family.
Upon approval to adopt, you will be sent SSRR Decompression and Introduction requirements that we require ALL of our adopters to follow . You will be asked to acknowledge receipt of these requirements, verify that you have read them and that you will follow them.
