| ODIN Odin is a purebred male Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier. His estimated DOB is 7/07 Odin is a owner turn-in. The owners sister originally contacted us so the info below is from her: My sister recently adopted a male 2 year old Wheaten from a local pet store who rescues stray dogs. He was wandering on a Highway! He is the best family dog! He is great with children. He is gentle and loving and loves to cuddle. He has shown no aggression at all towards people or around food. My sister has owned him about 3 months now. She has 3 cats and he is VERY obsessed with them. Both my sister and I have been working with him to try to break him from his intense focus on them. He has not hurt any of the cats physically. He charges them full force and even being scratched repeatedly does not slow him down, it seems to only intensify the situation. My sister keeps them separated by a baby gate. On one occasion, Odin went through the gate and harassed the cat under the bed for about an hour, the cat was so scared it peed all over itself and was drooling. (very sad) Now the cat is missing and has not come home for over a week. It is so frustrating, she loves this dog very much, but he has not responded to any of our methods of training. It is very obvious he needs a home WITHOUT any cats!!!! He is also a escape artist and has dug out of the yard (at several different locations) about 5 times! (also very scary) Luckily he has come home unharmed every time. My sister is over her head with this dog and I believe he should be placed in a home that is experienced with the breed. He has more good qualities than bad, but the bad are very big issues for her. I am hoping you can help us find the perfect home for him. Odin will need a home with NO CATS and will need to be supervised when outside if he is in a fenced yard. Odin is neutered, and up to date on shots. SEPTEMBER 2009 - A FOREVER HOME Odin has been adopted by the Glasgow Family of California CONGRATULATIONS! |
