Kobi (my rescue baby)
Aug.1/1994-Aug.5/2012
I rescued Kobi from a
shelter in Idaho, he had been beaten and abused, and his top teeth have been
either removed or most likely kicked out. His fear of feet and quick movement is
horrendous. I felt that he would not rehome easily, and decided to keep
this baby and work with him. Over a year later, there has been dramatic
improvement, his fear and dislike of people has gone away, he is loving and kind
to people, but always just a bit on guard. He is very different than any
ST I have known, he has different growls for everything, it took time to
understand his method of communication, happy growls, play growls, angry
growls. He never knew how to play, it took him a long time to get along
with my other dogs, as they did not understand him. He was totally unsocialized,
makes me wonder what someone did to him, to make him so uneasy, stressed and
unhappy..Today though he is happy, loved, and our baby, he still has issues, we
may never overcome them all, as he was 5 when I got him, and to undo 5
years of abuse is a long road. No matter he is here to stay!!!!
