Foster location: waupaca Application & Website: .ourpackanimalrescue/adoption.html Bio: Solason is Sola’s son and brother to Hola, and he recently made the journey north with his mom after we learned their family was still waiting in a Texas shelter. While his mom prefers to pretend humans don’t exist, Solason is at least considering the idea. When you walk into the room, he’ll often wag his tail and give you a half-greeting — like he’s thinking about saying hello — before quickly remembering he’s supposed to be nervous and retreating back to the safety of a dog bed or the floor. Baby steps. We’ve also caught him secretly playing with some of his foster brothers when he thinks no one is watching. For a big guy, he can get surprisingly playful. He’s also very protective of his mom, which isn’t surprising considering everything they’ve been through together. We’re still figuring out whether the two are truly bonded or if what they share is more of a trauma bond after years of surviving side by side. Solason is about twice the size of his mom, weighing roughly 90 pounds, but despite his size he’s a gentle giant. He allows pets, loves food, and will even allow you to pick him up and carry him — which is equal parts adorable and slightly ridiculous considering how big he is. He can be a little particular about food… but the things he loves, he LOVES. Dogs who have spent years surviving instead of living often need extra time and patience to trust the world around them. Because of that, dogs like Solason can take longer to find the right home. We couldn’t have brought Solason here without your continued support — it truly means the world to us. For now, we’re celebrating the small wins and letting Solason move at his own pace. One day he’ll realize he doesn’t have to be afraid anymore. Until then, we’ll meet him exactly where he is. Stay tuned for updates on his progress. Solason will require a fenced in yard at this time as well. Our Pack Animal Rescue, Inc. Is an all foster based 501c3 rescue. License #487823.
