Hi everybody, my name is Jasper and I’m a 2-year-old boy. When I arrived in Golden Rescue’s arms, I was a mess ~ fearful, timid, anxious, and stressed. I have come a long way since then thanks to my amazing foster family, but I still have a lot to figure out. I still have guarding issues around food and prized possessions and I’m still not great with other dogs; however, I’m getting more confident every day. These days, if I get too stressed, I go into my crate and that makes me feel better as I feel safe there…it’s my own private little sanctuary. Now, don’t get me wrong, I do love my life and I have been described as affectionate and sweet (ah shucks). I love my toys and I’m getting used to short walks. I do need more socialization with other dogs and I need my new family to continue my training…but mostly to be patient with me (because whatever my issues, I did come by them honestly). I am getting the hang of things and I’m getting more comfortable every day. I can be left alone if you have to go out without me and the doc says I’m a healthy boy. Here’s what my foster family says about me: “Jasper was a fearful anxious boy; however, he is coming out of his shell and showing us his goofy side. His anxiety is definitely dissipating” (whatever that word means ha-ha). If you chose me, I promise to keep working on myself. I am very anxious to be successful (actually I’m trying not to be anxious at all). Will you help me be the best version of myself, please?
