Fostering a Shelter Dog

Alright friends. Maligator Kennels has been given a great opportunity in the community, and we wanted to invite you to help, if it's something that sounds interesting to you.
I was personally contacted by a local animal shelter regarding a dog. I'm not sure how they heard about us, but I'm glad someone spread the word. Thank you for that.
Anyway they have a 2 to 3 year old mix breed, who has been with them for a while. The dog has some severe aggression issues with other dogs.
They put the dog through a tempermant test and she failed. Due to this the next step was to put the dog down. However, they heard about my company and contacted me.
They asked if I would be interested in taking the dog in and working with her to see if I could rehabilitate her. It was no question. My answer was yes.
So I'm taking this dog in, going to be working with her extensively, and trying to get her tempermant suitable for a new shot at life, with a new family.
My hope is that I can get her to where she is ready for a new lease on life. I also hope this forms and fortifies a trusted relationship between the shelter and I so we can give EVERY dog a chance at a new loving home.
If you'd like to participate in her rehabilitation, please let me know. My thought is, she could go to a different client as often as available for a day, or a few hours and get to see a ton of new things, and have a lot of new positive experiences. If you're not interested, that's fine. We will still be taking her in, and working with her.
Let me know if you'd like to help with her rehabilitation. If would be a nice thing for all of us to work together.
