Tina PERMANENT FOSTER

AGE: Three years

MY STORY: Hi, I'm Tina! I was surrendered to a shelter late one night because I am deaf. The nice people from GABR took me in. Now I have two foster boxer brothers and a nice soft place to sleep. Being deaf, I have a few additional requirements in order to adopt me. My new home must have a hearing dog to act as my ears and a completely, above ground, fenced-in yard. My new family must agree to take me to obedience classes so we can learn hand signals together. I like to be close to my foster Boxer brothers; they are very tolerant of my bossy personality. My foster mom lovingly calls me the white tornado as I never sit still very long and love to play with tug toys. Prior dog/boxer experience is a plus. I am crate trained, but I need to be able to see my Boxer brothers, or I get anxious. My foster mom crates us all in the same room. I would love a Boxer brother to play with. I know the basic hand signals and I go to obedience class with my foster mom.

HOUSEBROKEN? Yes

TRAINING? Obedience classes are a requirement for adopting me. (The rescue requires obedience classes for all dogs three and under.)

GOOD WITH CHILDREN? Yes - but I am high energy, so older children would be best.

GOOD WITH DOGS? Yes

GOOD WITH CATS? Maybe. There are cats in my foster home and I chased them, but I don't hurt them. I like to bark at them.
