Caramel is spirited, affectionate, and heartbreakingly loyal. She was found wandering a dirt road with her mother, Oreo, and they relied on each other to survive. While their bond helped them endure, Oreo has shown aggression towards Caramel, making it necessary for them to be separated for their safety. Caramel is estimated to be around 2 years old and is a high-energy young adult who thrives with structure and purpose. She can be reserved at first but warms up when trust is built slowly, becoming deeply affectionate and enjoying human attention.
Ideal Home
Caramel needs a calm, experienced home with clear boundaries and confident leadership. She has not been exposed to children and would not be a good fit for homes with small children or elderly pets. She is sensitive to new situations and needs patience as she settles.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions were mentioned in the listing.
Training & Support
Caramel needs an experienced handler familiar with behavior modification and positive, structured training. She is still learning important life skills, including leash walking and potty training. She needs consistency, exercise, and mental stimulation to channel her intensity into confidence and stability. She must be the only dog, as she does not enjoy being around other dogs, can become reactive, and has shown strong resource guarding behaviors. She also has an extreme prey drive and is not suitable for homes with cats or small animals.
