Raven's Favorite Thing:

Her people. Raven loves attention and enjoys being included in the action. Whether she is out on a walk, riding along in the car, or relaxing at home, she is happiest when she gets to be near the people she loves.

A Loving Dog Who Needs Understanding:

Raven is a strong, confident girl who would do best with someone who can be a calm, consistent leader for her. She weighs about 92 pounds and is very strong, so she will need an adopter who can physically handle her size and strength, especially on leash.

Raven does pull on leash and can pull hard, so continued leash work will be important. She knows her commands well, including sit, down, come, and crate, and she responds well to structure, consistency, and clear expectations. She is also food motivated, which makes training sessions both fun and rewarding.

Raven has been known to be dog selective, but she does currently live with another dog, Kion, in her foster home and co-exists well with him. She does best with dogs who are respectful, calm, and not overly playful. Raven would likely be happiest with dog friends who enjoy peacefully co-existing rather than rough play or constant interaction. With the right match and proper introductions, she can do well, but she appreciates dogs who respect her boundaries.
