Meet Saint: At shelter

  Two year old brothers Saint and Bane loved playtime together on Thursday! these boys have very different personalities. Saint, wearing the wide red collar is more outgoing and confident than his brother. And we noted that he wants ALL the attention when humans are around, and tried to run interference between his brother and the humans. It’s behavior often seen in dogs that are siblings. And it’s one reason we don’t encourage people to keep siblings together. We love seeing each dog blossom and not feel inhibited by a sibling. The positive here is that we’re not seeing any kind of corrections to one another, as the boys are still young enough to be amiable, and easy to handle. But it will be important for them to be neutered quickly, and we would love to see them adopted into separate homes.   They are two years old, intact, and are a challenging mix of breeds: chow/husky/German Shepherd. (All three of these breeds go downhill quickly in the shelter setting.) We understand they lived with one other dog, and were indoor pets. So far they appear to be social enough with new volunteers. If you are looking for a beautiful dog, and love any of these breeds, perhaps one of them would be the one for you.   PLEASE NOTE: This pet has been posted by Friends of Campbell County Animal Control, Rustburg, VA.
