Seamus has been in our care since October 27th. He still avoids human contact but he lives for being with other dogs. The leash scares him, steps scare him, loud noises scare him. He is what we would call a fearful dog. And he's a huge flight risk. Dogs like Seamus need a reason to stay with their people and right now, Seamus has every reason not to.
On another note, part of getting Seamus on track is getting him vaccinated and neutered! That happened today. The person who tranported him had him on 3 leashes just to make sure he couldn't get away. And when it was time to get in the car, he put his brakes on. A 60+ lb. resistant dog can be hard to get into a car! In addition to his neuter and vaccines, we had to address the horrible ear infection he had. Hopefully, with the right medications, he'll be feeling better soon. Well, that is after he recovers from being finally fully groomed last night...
