About Adzuki

Please help us rehome our sweet, quirky, loving, four-year-old Boxer/Pit mix. Due to some unfortunate circumstances (happy to share more with anyone seriously considering), we have to rehome her. ��%BD%A0We are looking for a loving home outside of Harrisonburg for Adzuki. ��%BD%A0Adzuki needs to be in a home without other pets and would do really well with adults and older children - she likes children but is very excitable and jumps a lot. She is four-year old rescue that was thrown out of a truck on the highway when she was 10 months old, and has made tremendous progress since we adopted her. ��%BD%A0When she came to us, she was scared of brooms and other objects that she might be hit with. ��%BD%A0She was also very scared of men and trucks. ��%BD%A0We are happy to say that she is no longer afraid of any objects like brooms, and has several men in her life that she adores, although she is still afraid of trucks, loud vehicles, and sometimes men outside, particularly if they are wearing a hat. Adzuki has a lot of anxiety but is an extremely sweet and snuggly dog. ��%BD%A0She gets 'zoomies' for about an hour a day, ��%BD%A0but for the most part likes spending the rest of her time sleeping. ��%BD%A0She loves snuggling, prefers to sleep with her humans, and will gently paw at you in order to get under the covers. She enjoys turnips, sweet potatoes, carrots, and peanuts, but she is allergic to chicken and cannot handle a diet that is too high in fat. She has not been socialized with other dogs and gets anxious around them, and does not know how to interact. Adzuki loves chew toys, and once you throw one to her, she will play with it on her own - she definitely needs heavy-duty rubber toys. Currently, Adzuki lives with three children. ��%BD%A0Our youngest adores her, and they snuggle together often. ��%BD%A0We would love to get an occasional picture or update from her new adoptive family, but it will be enough to know that she is going to a safe and loving home.
