8/27 Update from foster mom: Matty was neutered last week and is now ready for his forever family to find him.  We are working on his manners and leash walking. He is very much food-motivated.  He will need to be fed separately from other pets due to some food guarding. Hopefully, this will improve as he realizes that there will ALWAYS be another meal.  He is a loving boy.  In a perfect world, he would have a fenced yard to run in and another doggo to play with.  He does well with 2 of my female dogs.  Danica and he have to be watched because of Danica’s territorial issues. He has not pooped in the house but has peed a few times. That is becoming less and less.  Anyway, he will make a great addition to the right family who accepts that he is a work in progress.  I give him a 4.3 out of 5.

Please welcome Mathias (Matty) to the rescue!  Here’s an 8/16 update from his foster: Matty has been in the house for a few days now.  This 4.5 year old is a 55lb all-around good “boi.”   He is scheduled for his neuter at the end of next week and then will be ready for his forever family.  I do keep a belly band on him inside. I’m sure it’s a marking thing but we are working on stopping that plus having the neuter surgery should help.  He gets along fine with my pack.  I would as always recommend feeding him separately from other dogs.  These shelter dogs seem to have food insecurity.   He crates well, loves to get belly scratches and any one-on-one loving.   He will need some work on manners.  He’s inquisitive.
