Dog Won't Eat After Adoption: What to Do
Is your newly adopted dog not eating? Don't panic! Learn why this common issue happens and get actionable tips to help your dog eat and settle in.
Cobie is an absolutely precious pup from the adorable "C" litter, approximately 10 weeks old and weighing between 8-12lbs. She is a sweet, mellow girl who gets along wonderfully with her littermates and resident dogs in her foster home. Cobie loves people and has already shown great progress with crate training. Her gentle nature and friendly demeanor make her a delightful companion ready to bring joy to her new family.
As a Labrador Retriever and Collie mix, Cobie is likely to inherit a wonderful blend of traits. Labrador Retrievers are known for their friendly, outgoing, and intelligent personalities, while Collies are celebrated for their loyalty, grace, and trainability. These breeds typically have a moderate energy level, enjoying daily walks and playtime. Cobie's short coat, likely inherited from her Labrador side, will require moderate grooming with weekly brushing to manage shedding.
Cobie is deaf and is seeking a special home that understands her unique needs. An ideal family would have another confident dog who can act as a guide and companion, helping Cobie learn and navigate the world. She is good with children and would thrive in a loving environment committed to positive reinforcement training. With patience and understanding, Cobie will blossom into a devoted and cherished family member.
