Requirements

• Another confident dog in the home

• Familiarity with Corgi behaviors

• Human commitment to making a difference in her life.

Gladys is a very sweet girl, timid, quiet in need of a patient and caring home. Gladys came to us as part of a hoarding/neglect case. Because of her past she is carrying some extra baggage she'll need to overcome. Given time to learn to trust and heal she will grow into a loving and great family member. 

In foster care she has already made some progress. 

Very good walker on leash. She’s a bit reluctant to get out the door, yet can do 2 miles no problem and even gone for walks in the rain. Seems to like water: she prattles right through puddles and even seems to be drawn to them.

Coming inside: she is timid with me outside and a couple of times a little scared to come back in. She kinda likes to hang out by the door outside, and needs a little encouragement to get into the yard to pee and poop. When she sees our dogs return through the door, she’s right with them and comes right in.

Alone time: she doesn’t chew or get on any furniture. She has been very trustworthy in the house, out of her kennel. 

Things she needs to continue to work on.

Stairs: she won’t go up or down the interior steps. I know she can do steps, we do them in The park, but she just can’t work up the courage to do the inside steps: up or down

Overall Confidence with people: she came out and walked among our guests at a card party, and she’ll randomly come out to see what’s going around during the day. She won’t come out of her kennel in the morning. She lets me gently assist her out, but she's vet timid. She won’t walk out of the bedroom to go out right away to pee, I carry her out.
