We have an absolutely wonderful sweet girl who is a bully breed 60 pound dog. She is a true joy but she cannot be kenneled as she is very dog reactive.
She is a rescue who comes from a bad background so she has a lot of trust issues and takes someone who 1). Has experience with big bully breed dogs 2). Is willing to take the time to build a relationship with her fearfulness and 3). Doesn't have their own pets.
Ideally, we're looking for someone who has a fenced in yard, and dog experience. She is very crate trained and can be left there comfortably. She wouldn't need walks while we were gone, just outside time and play time.
We would pay $100 a day and we would pay for all the sessions where we bring her to your house for play and get to know you sessions.
This would take some time and we are looking for someone who is willing to build a lasting relationship with her. Once she bonds with you, she is the most loyal loving dog I've ever seen. She loves people but she struggles with confidence if my wife and I are not around. We had lots of success leaving her with two trainers she bonded with, but neither of them are options for boarding any longer.
We are near Marquette but are willing to drive up to 2 hours (maybe more) for the right person.
