Reed & Asher D2025-156
• Can be homed together
• Can also be homed separately but need another dog
• Older teenage children
• No cats
• Patient family
Reed is 8 and Asher is 7. They are Bichon Frise.
Reed is a laid back boy that loves cuddles and attention from his foster mum. He can be unsure at first but is quick to trust especially if there’s a cuddle or a treat involved. Asher takes a bit more time to trust than Reed and when approached by strangers will run to his foster mum for reassurance.
Reed would be fine around older gentle maybe teenage children.
Asher is not fond of children they scare him so teenagers/older children only.
Both dogs will bark at cats but are not bothered by them in the garden.
Reed came in to the rescue with cataract in both his eyes, coming from a puppy farm and not being able to see must of been both scary and horrendous for him. Once safely in rescue a referral to the Ralph in Marlow was made and his eyes were corrected. Reed can now see and is enjoying every minute. He continues to have drops in his eyes and checkups every couple of months so a home along the m4 corridor would be ideal so these check ups can be continued by the rescue until he is discharged.
Asher has no known health issues.
Both Asher and Reid have not learnt how to play with toys yet.
Both Asher and Reed are fine with a harness and lead around the house. Walking in the big scary world is work in progress for both the boys and they will freeze in their tracks when overwhelmed. It is important that their new family can offer lots of reassurance consistency and patience to help them flourish and see the big wonderful world outside has lots of new and exciting sniffs to be found and enjoyed.
Both Asher and Reed sleep in dog beds on the floor in foster mums bedroom.
Toilet training is a work in progress for both boys they have spent all of their life toileting where they sleep so again time patience and consistency will help teach them to toilet outside every time.
Both dogs love their food and there is no food aggression.
Reed and Asher can be Rehomed together or rehomed separately but with a resident dog to help show them the way. A quiet home would be needed for both boys someone with patience that can help them flourish to finally be the dog they should have always been. A home where both boys would be able to snuggle on your laps in the evening where they feel safe. A home that’s willing to work on their toileting lead walking whilst also showing them that humans are kind.
