JULIA Julia is a purebred female Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier. Her estimated DOB is 7/06 Julia is a owner turn-in. She is being given up due to a move to a smaller home and issues with her getting loose. Below is some information from them: I have a 2 year old Wheaton named Julia who is the victim of downsizing. I recently had to move out of my home into a town home that is about 1/3 the size. I have 4 boys and we are just trying to make ends meet right now. Julia is having an extremely difficult time adjusting to living in much smaller quarters. Everyone who walks by outside scares her and she barks and runs back and forth. I can tell that she is in distress. She ran out the front door recently and bit a neighbor's dog. She is typically a friendly dog, especially with kids. We also have a small chihuahua and they play together just fine. She is just scared of unfamiliar dogs and if they act aggressive towards her at all she gets upset. JULIA UPDATE Julia has been here in Kansas City for a few weeks while we evaluated her. Julia is a very sweet dog, she loves people and is generally pretty well behaved when she is alone with people. She comes when called and sits on command and is very affectionate. Julia's issues are with other dogs. She is scared around them and reacts aggressively to scare them away. She is a large for a female Wheaten - around 40 lbs and she is very solidly built. She is a very pretty and striking girl and has a coat that tends towards being curly. She will need an owner who is both physically strong and has a definite alpha personality to control her when she is around dogs or other stimuli that gets her worked up. Obedience training will be a condition of adoption with Julia, she will need one on one clasees at least in the beginning. We believe that with proper training and work that Julia can be much better with other animals but she will need a home where she is the only pet. She is not good with cats. Due to her size and behavior around other animals we will not consider homes with children under 14 for this dog. Julia is spayed and up to date on shots. AUGUST 2009 - A FOREVER HOME Julia has been adopted by Beth Brokaw of Kentucky CONGRATULATIONS! |
