Meiko has been slowly coming around and as his foster mom, Molly, reports:
Meiko has had a few breakthroughs these last few weeks. I can now pick him up under careful circumstances. He is now safely excepting petting from strangers without trying to snap. He will now play with me on a regular basis and trust is forming. This past week we were finally successful is trading for a high value object without an aggressive response.
He’s also lost some weight and is becoming healthier. Molly told us his fur is becoming shinier and overall he just looks better. He’s still very weary with people and sometimes growls and shows warning signs but she’s definitely working with him to understand that not all people are scary. Each day he’s becoming more playful, getting along with her dogs better and better, and is learning to let his guard down.
Meiko still guards his treats and high-worth items and he also tries to steal food off the table. He still aloof and sometimes ignores commands but slowly but surely, Meiko is relaxing.
