Please note that Casey is a special needs dog.

Casey comes to us on 07/14/10 from a local shelter where he ended up after being found as a stray. He is a fairly big boy, very sweet, medium energy.

Poor boy, left out to wander and picked up by the dog police, Casey was left in the shelter by his owner.  It was a good thing that we came along to help him.  We learned early on that Casey was HW+.  Casey is about 1.5 years old. 

Casey loves people and he loves attention.  He runs up to you and loves to lean on you for petting.  He especially loves belly rubs.  He is very shy and has ot been well sociaized with other dogs and has a tendancy to be a bit toy possesive.  He would rather not be around the other dogs although he is not aggressive about it.  He will get growly.  He also is a bit shy of thunderstorms, but settles down quickly.  He has learned to walk nicely on his leash.  He loves toys, is housebroken, and crate trained. 

 
Will you help Casey be the dog he can be?  He just needs someone to help him to learn how to trust animals, and play with other dogs.

 

This dog is currently in one of our wonderful Foster Homes for evaluation and lots of love. All of our dogs stay in their Foster Homes for a minimum two week evaluation period, then remain there until their Forever Home finds them.

All GRRSWF dogs have undergone an full examination by a veterinarian and any health concerns have been addressed.
