This beautiful boy Mowgli is 5 years old. He was surrendered by his owner of 4 years, because she felt that she could no longer handle him. The former owner explained that Mowgli was overly protective of her and would act aggressively when people would approach her, and she was unable to control him. She also told us that she was unsure how he was with other dogs but had been okay with cats in the past.Understandably, he was very depressed when he got here, and it took days and days for staff to get him to eat. With lots of love and attention, he realized that we weren’t so bad and started to come around. He is a big love bug! He is very affectionate and just wants to be with and around his people. He can be vocal and lets you know when he wants attention, by giving a big, loud wooooooooooooooo.Mowgli is a sensitive boy and needs and experienced owner. He will need someone willing to socialize him safely and correctly and who has the time to take advantage of some specialized training, so he doesn’t fall back into that overly protective personality. For now, we will have to say no children.He seems to be a clean boy (excluding the drool that comes with this breed) and seems to be potty trained. He loves wearing a cozy sweater and would love a couch of his own. We have fallen in love with this special boy, and we want to find him his forever home, with someone who understands his needs and requirements.
