LINCOLN Lincoln is a male Wheatable. He is a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier/Springer Spaniel mix. His est. DOB is 11/12 Lincoln was part of a group of dogs that were dropped off at a Rescue in Georgia by a puppymiller who said they could no longer afford to feed them. Truman came in with Wheatable siblings, Lincoln, & Betsy, All three of the boys are very traumatized by their first months in a puppymill and we suspect abuse as well. They are extremely fearful of humans. We are working with them slowly to try and tame them, at this point we cannot even touch them without them reacting aggressively out of fear. Although we hoped to not have to handle it in that manner, we did have to anesthetize them to get them vetted and shaved down. As you can see in the new pictures, they are very short but it is only fur and it will grow back. These boys are, by far, the most psychologically damaged of any puppymill dogs we have gotten. It is very sad to see them so absolutely terrified of human beings. At this point in time we have no idea when or if any of them will be available for adoption. Lincoln requires a quiet home with no children under 16. He has come a long way with his fear issues but needs a home that will be very understanding of him and be willing to work with him more. He would greatly benefit by being in a home with a well adjusted female dog. We will not place him in a home with another puppymill dog in residence. Lincoln is neutered and up to date on shots prior. |
