Second Chance Parker is a lively young boy who's looking for a person who will always have his back. This one-year old has a Lab personality inside a Great Dane-sized body. Part goofball, he'd love to tag team with a human who also has a good sense of humor. For much of his life, Parker did very well living with a young child. He enjoyed a fenced-in yard, but had limited exposure to other dogs. After the family moved to an apartment, his size and lack of socialization with dogs were not a match for his new environment. Parker is now living at the Cranston, RI Animal Shelter where staff manage Parker carefully around other dogs and make sure his environment is controlled. They've seen Parker less aroused around certain dogs and under certain circumstances. By getting to know Parker, they want his forever home to include: An experienced large-dog owner physically capable of managing an XL dog. A single-family house rather than a setting that has lots of dog traffic. A consistent routine with exercise and playtime. A partner to join him in professional dog training and then reinforce all the good manners he learns. Parker is easily aroused around other dogs, likely from his lack of exposure to other dogs. A good part of his training will focus on reactivity which explains the need for an adopter with a little brawn. An adopter who is 'in it to win it' meaning time, patience, and dedication, which results in membership to the top dog adopter club. Have what it takes to give Parker a second chance? Contact the shelter by email [email protected] or call (401) 464-8700. PLEASE tell them Animal Rescue Konnection (ARK) sent you!
