Story
Simba is an 8-9 year old wavy coat male Saint Bernard. He came to Minnesota as a foster by way of a Saint Bernard Rescue. His recent foster has spent the last two years rehabbing with a lot of training, socialization, a consistent grooming schedule at the local Central Bark, and lots of love.He is smaller than a traditional male Saint Bernard weighing in at 115lbs. He is neutered and up to date on all vaccines as of 7/30/2024. He is very energetic for a senior dog and has a lot of life left in him. He would thrive in an active family that will commit to continuing his training to provide structure and lots of walks. His temperament has changed for the better over the last two years. He is open to other dogs yet not overly interested. He is very affectionate with his people, this will take patience for the first several weeks to build trust. He loves to run and lay in the grass outside. He would do best in a home with adults, but is tolerant of middle age children to teenagers. He would most likely thrive as the only dog in the house with opportunities to go to daycare and dog parks, but could do okay with his own space if other dogs were already part of the family.A few notes from his history: he has fear around his back end being touched, and also his paws. His foster has been working on conditioning him to tolerate those areas. This will need work with his new family. He was most likely neglected with his past owner, which is where his attachment style comes from, setting clear boundaries for him will be important. Stubbornness comes with the breed and is elevated in rescue dogs. He thrives with his training and the structure it provides.If you are interested in adopting this big, handsome, fella, please apply online and we can set up an appointment. **Adoption fee: $300 + $30 microchip fee + tax
