From Joyful Rescues, Inc.

Clancy was born about August 29, 2017 and weighs about 35 lbs. She was returned to us after 7 years when The Rooney couple passed away each with cancer three weeks apart! We now know they did a wonderful job managing her behavior because upon her returned she was highly aggressive with all humans and other dogs. She wasn't this way when she left as a baby/teen but maturity and likely the isolation during covid caused a drastic personality change. We were quite shocked when contacted by a relative from out of town of what happened and even more shocked when she arrived snarling and growling in a crate a couple days later. As always, and we truly mean this, we always and forever take our own dogs back no matter what. Her behavior was so extreme that we were worried we might have to make a decision that we didn't want to but she was miserable and surely if she could have talked she'd have told us she just wanted to die and find her parents once again. We reached out to a couple friends and neighbors, of the Rooney Family, who filled us in on her behavior with the Rooney's and how they managed her making sure she was always steps away from other humans and other dogs. We were told…

In the rescue's own words, as they published it.
