Arrival Story: Rohm was being fostered in Angie and Jackie’s home. When they finally placed him in a home, the family had experienced aggressive behaviors from Rohm. Angie and Jackie took on the responsibility of his behaviors and did they research on the breed and genetics of what would be causing these sudden acts of aggression. In their findings they discovered that aggression is common in Albinos because it is a genetic defect and not an AKC recognized color due to aggression and other health problems. Rather then putting Rohm down Angie sought out help from Sit Means Sit to help manage his behavior. They now can take Rohm on peaceful walks, have people come in the house, and even have people walk past the house without him barking and growling uncontrollably as he did before. Rohm has taken great strides in becoming a social dog.
