A little about them
Meet Bryan, a tiny 12-pound boy with a gentle soul and a big journey ahead. At one year old, he is extremely fearful of human touch but shows meaningful signs of hope: he approaches people, rests his paws on their legs, and accepts treats from their hands. Bryan has zero aggression and is afraid of being hurt, not interested in hurting anyone.
Ideal Home
Bryan needs a patient, understanding adopter experienced with fearful dogs. He must be allowed to approach people on his own terms and should be adopted separately from Drew. Bryan gets along beautifully with other dogs and would likely benefit from a confident, friendly canine companion.
Ongoing Health
Bryan is vaccinated and neutered. No diagnosed medical conditions are reported.
Training & Support
Bryan currently does not allow handling or being picked up, and the rescue has not been able to put a leash on him for walks. His family will need to provide a secure environment, carefully manage this limitation, and work with a qualified, force-free trainer to help him gradually build confidence.
Application Details
- Experience with fearful dogs and a commitment to patient, gradual trust-building are needed.
- Applications begin by contacting Bryan's provider through Wags.
