After a lot of difficulties and two unsuccessful adoptions we have great news – Fabio finally has a home! The golden boy, who was excellent in the shelter showed some problems when he went home to two different families, so we had to re-evaluate his temperament, marking him as a “sporadic biter”…
His first hours at home – confused and bedazzled
This is no stigma, nor a diagnosis – it’s a simple behavioral problem that can be fixed with some perseverance. Fabio was a good and fun dog at the shelter, so it was clear that his problems depend on the environment. He has obviously not had an easy life before he came, the poor thing.
A huge THANK YOU and WELL DONE to Elitza Savova! Elitza came to the shelter looking for a cocker to adopt and loved Fabio immediately. We did our best to scare her off, but she knew what she was doing and thanks to her experience with her previous dog she quickly solved his issues. Here is a short narrative of her dealings with Fabio:
He is a wonderful boy, a bit mischievous and very playful, but a great dog. We decided to call him Caramel, because of his color and good character. He is very hard to photograph, he doesn’t like it one bit. As any living creature, he too has his own peculiarities – he plays alone, but he is a very lovable and lively dog. I hope we have a wonderful future ahead with Caramel!
