Original: Tandy came into MAESSR’s care when the owners who had had her since puppyhood were no longer able to care for her. Due to health issues of their own, Tandy was not getting the daily exercise that a healthy, active springer needs and they wanted her to have greater opportunity than they could provide.
Tandy was crate trained and reliable in the bedroom for a full night in her surrendering home. She had been through puppy kindergarten years ago but had not been worked with too much since. She had forgotten most of the commands she learned. Her house manners need some touching up and leash walking is an area she needs training in. She is a high-energy gal and continuing opportunity for exercise is vital.
Unfortunately, Tandy has not adapted well to the move from her original home. She has bitten since coming into foster care. After reviewing the circumstances fully, MAESSR determined that she could not be placed. Tandy is being kept by a MAESSR foster family and will not be rehomed.
