NIPSEY - ENGLISH COONHOUND (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: English Coonhound (medium coat). Nipsey is looking for someone with a big, patient heart to help her learn how to dog. She’s such a Nervous Nelly at the moment. She’s not super comfortable being around people, but we’re helping her practice. At the moment she prefers her space and keeping some distance from you. Nipsey’s nerves often have her coming across as rude when she’s really just scared. She just appreciates lots of space. Even loose in the play yard – which is most shelter dogs’ happy place – her anxiety shows. She trots laps and maintains as much distance from you as she possibly can. She seems most comfortable in her kennel by herself. As treat motivated as she is, we think that’s the ticket to her heart. She’ll happily take treats gently from your hand through her kennel, but then she scampers off to eat them by herself. She has done well interacting with other dogs in shelter playgroups though, and she's also proven herself to be potty trained! We know it’ll take a special soul to help Nipsey trust people, but she’s worth it!
