UPDATE: Its been a month since Fire and Brimstone are in my home and what an Amazing transformation. Fire is happy, confident and anxiety with the crate what? what is that ;) That is part off the past. Fire Loves to go to my room and my son's room. At night they don't need the crate anymore, they sleep in the couch or closer to me in my bedroom. During the day, if we are not home, they stay in the crate with no problem, both know that fomom or fobrothers will give them a treat, so they go inside on their own. It's the little thinks like this one that makes us so happy. Fire and Brimstone are ready for there Forever Family. Fire and Brimstone are two love birds, when comes to affection and people they are the same. Inside the house and outside they act the same way. Fre and Brimstone have the same temperments with the exception of "confidence" and "crate". Fire needs a little work on those things. His confidence is very low or does not even exist. He wants to move around the home, but for some reason, he is not confident enough to go in rooms other than the leaving room. When we got home at the end off the day his tail is moving all happy, but his head shows something else, he puts his head down whining and his legs are shaking and waits for people to pet him. If and when we get closer to the crate he turns around and hides behind the couch or tries to go outside to the back door. He is really afraid off the crate. To put him inside we need to trick him, we need to pretend that we are leaving the house (front door) and after very quickly "push" him inside. He does complain when inside, just for a little bit, he scratches the floor trying to get out but after he stays calm and sleeps, almost all night. Fire needs a Loving Family, One that as patient and understands his feelings and his struggles. With time he will be an amazing confident dog. If you have the space in your home and the love in your heart for two adult dogs, please give a second chance to Fire and Brimstone. In return they will Love you unconditionally. Do not let his insecurities make both of theme wait any longer for their forever home, maybe deep inside he knows that because of him they can not find their Forever Family.
