For more information about Raska, please contact her owner Sonia via email: sunnydays2u@hotmail.com Please do NOT contact Senior Dog Rescue of Oregon about Raska. We have no further information about her. Raska is a sweet 9 year old girl who needs a new family due to one of her humans allergies. She is in good health. Her only issue is that she does have arthritis in her hips, for which she takes supplements and medication. Because of the arthritis, she walks slower on leash. Ideally, she would benefit from a residence with a large yard. She loves to be outdoors. Raska has great house manners and is low maintenance. She is housebroken and she does not chew, scratch furniture, or dig. If you have to leave for a short time, she will patiently wait/ nap at home until you return. She will lean on you for hugs and if you allow dogs on the sofa or bed she will lie quietly next to you. She wants to be close to her humans. Raska is an excellent “ alert” dog. If someone knocks or rings the doorbell she has a deep German Shepherd bark to put any strangers on notice. She is patient and well-behaved around children. Even though she tolerates most dogs (she prefers male dogs over female dogs and really doesnt like tiny yappy dogs much), she doesn’t usually play. She would rather be with a person. Raska does react to other dogs when on leash, but we have been working on this and have found that keeping a good distance and using a head harness really works well. Raska, typical of her breed mix, has a high prey drive. While she has never harmed any animal, we still feel that it would be best for her new home to be free of cats or small animals.
