I'm coming back into the loving care of IBR. It's not that I did anything wrong. On the contrary. I've been very good and a perfect family pet, but my family had to make a very sad and hard decision to ask for help from IBR and take me back. This is what they had to say about me " About nine months ago we were paired up with a setter mix named McGee, which we immediately fell in love with!!
McGee is an incredible companion! So healthy unlike so many other unfortunate IBR pups . He is great in every way! He is great with out 5 and 9 year olds, great with the little Italian greyhound we have (they sleep on each other and play like two big dogs). McGee has NO food aggressions, toy aggressions and is just the most playfull and snuggly warm dog I have EVER known!! He is a little," paws" on with us sometimes" but not from aggression at all just attention, which doesn't always go good for my 5 year old, yet with a stern command of OFF he is down. He has never been hit, never bitten, and never chewed a thing other than toys. He loves the outdoors, loves his daily walks, which now I can let him off leash and when I call for him he stays by my side. He listens to everything I command to him, and he is crate trained to where if we are in the basement watching T.V. and I say "McGee time to go nite-night or go to sleep" he immediatly runs up the the second floor and awaits for me to shut the door for him to sleep for the night. We really hope that McGee can be placed into a similar loving home. I love him dearly, yet have to make one of my toughest decisions ever to give up the one that has always been by my side and is soo loving.. Lisa ..........he really is the perfect dog !!"
Now, I will be in a foster home waiting for someone special again to make me their family member. Thankfully, I don't have to go back to a shelter and repeat the whole process of uncertainties that comes with that unpleasantness.
