Asher
Asher D2024-157
• Needs a resident dog/dogs
• Not cat or small furry tested
• Older dog savvy children
• Patient family
Asher is a 7 year old Bichon described by his foster family as a typical puppy farm dog who is very unsure around humans he doesn’t know. If in doubt he will run to his safe space and watch from afar. Walking outside on the lead is work in progress as it’s scary out in the big wide world, so new owners would need to work on this slowly and gradually as this will take him time to learn
Asher is fine around older gentle and understanding children 10+ that will leave him to adapt and watch and not bother him too much. Younger louder children may be too much and will scare him.
Asher relies a lot on other dogs in the home. He doesn’t have a lot of confidence by himself and will let the resident dog lead the way. He will sit back watch and then once he feels safe he will join in, so it’s very important he has another dog to help him flourish. He plays with the other dog in the home and they zoomie up and down the garden.
Walking on the lead is work in progress and will need to be continued around the garden in his new home before he does outside.
Asher sleeps in the kitchen with the resident dog in the dog bed all night. He would be happy to also sleep on the bed with the foster mum and has done from time to time.
Toilet training is a work in progress and is going to need some work. He’s slowly learning but will still have accidents inside the home. Please consider this when adopting a puppy farm dog as this will have to be worked on and will come slowly.
Asher loves his food and eats really well. He has no food aggression and loves treats
Asher is ideally looking for a quiet home that will have patience with him as he’s a slow burner. He relies heavily on the resident dog in the home to snuggle up with and learn from. Once he trusts his human he will snuggle up and enjoy lots of cuddles but that needs to be built slowly by letting him decompress and be left to learn from the other dog. Time will be the biggest thing with Asher and his new home must let him decompress over time and not rush him to soon. Asher is a gentle boy but an unsure soul but once he trusts you will have his all.
