About DARYL - Only $45!!!!!

DARYL (Chihuahua mix - Brown w/white accents and a black wash) - WE NEED A SPONSOR!!! AVAILABLE!!! Only $45 adoption!!! We just rescued this sweetheart from the euthanasia list. New pictures & a more detailed adoption profile will be posted in the future as we get to know this pet if it is not adopted beforehand. Additional notes: - Daryl has 2 cute little wrinkles that he gets on his forehead when he is thinking about something. - He has a tear on his left ear that has already healed. - This little one came from the recent case on the news for the 35+ Chihuahuas found abandoned by evicted tenant in east Phoenix. Here is a link to see the story: https://www.azfamily.com/news/nearly-chihuahuas-found-abandoned-by-evicted-tenant-in-east-phoenix/article_14325912-8e34-11e9-a4c2-0bdb8b6b9c4f.html?fbclid=IwAR1RI_2n4E6YeTeh7uha9N63VPPwgEiqVjG20HxOw8LElVEahfX5f7G6O24 - Fearful, & needs to be worked with. If you are wanting to adopt a pet that is fearful, you will need to crate this pet in an active room in your home so that this pet can watch you & your other animals & see that you will not hurt him/her. You will need to just lay newspaper down & just clean out the crate until they get used to you & learn to trust you. Otherwise this pet will run & hide from you because his/her experience with people so far is that people are a source of pain. If you are expecting to just come in & show this pet some love & it will come right around, then you are not understanding the level of fear. All pets come around in their own time. Some just take weeks, others take months...If you are interested in this pet, you need to be prepared to be committed to helping this pet no matter how long it takes. Fear Level: Medium - Daryl has come a long way in the short time he has been here. The first day he wold take thrown treats, but wouldn't let me touch him. Then after awhile, he started to show interest in me and sniffed my hand when cleaning out the crate. He will now take treats from my hand, and even step out of the crate to get it. I can pick him up with a towel, but I spend time and pet him first for a couple minutes. He freezes and shakes when I pet him, but he lets me do it. He is very sweet. He is crate trained now, and will hold it until I let him out. To do that, I pick him up with a towel, and carry him outside. I am able to let him run free in the yard without him trying to escape. He will then stand at the door when he is done. When I open the door, he will come back in and go straight to his crate. On the occasion when I am late letting him back in, he has come through the doggy door and just went in to his crate. If I go outside with him, he will follow me around. I have 5 project dogs that I am working with. He would do better, and progress faster, with someone who has more time to spend one on one time with him. . - I post updates on the pets in the comment section on each pets post in our Facebook group.

ADOPTING A CAT OR DOG IS UP TO A 20 YEAR COMMITMENT! THEY ARE NOT OBJECTS THAT YOU CAN GET RID OF WHEN THEY BECOME INCONVENIENT.
