*** Foster Home Needed***

We are seeking a foster home for Ezekiel (Zeke), a local owner-surrender dog that needs to come to rescue.

Could someone foster him, so we can say, "Yes?"

Maybe someone out there understands this breed, and/or can keep him somewhat active, or outside often, etc. stimulate him, for greater contentment?

Please read below and let us know if you can, or please share!

Zeke is a 5.5-year-old, 20 lbs, mini-Goldendoodle.

Zeke loves to chase squirrels, bark at squirrels and delivery people, and play tug. He likes chasing after balls, frisbees, and sticks that we throw for him, but he does not like giving them back.

As you can see from some of the photos, Zeke is great with cats. He's spent some time with other dogs and I think he'll acclimate to another dog who isn't aggressive with him.

He can guard food and growl and has nipped at our kids when they're trying to put him in the kennel at non-mealtimes, though he is kennel trained and normally has no issues with his kennel, voluntarily going there when he senses we're getting ready to leave.

Zeke has become very anxious at the groomer and they're now refusing to groom him without medication. He's very high-energy, pacing indoors and always wanting to be on the other side of the door, no matter where he is, though can happily spend hours outside in nice weather. He's a very vocal dog, barking and whining frequently.

Overall, he's a lovable, intelligent dog who enjoys people and playing, and will be great with people who would like to put effort into training him to fulfill his potential.
