OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN
LOVING PARENTS WHO WILL HELP HIM ADJUST TO BEING A MUCH LOVED PET
Sandy is a 5 year old westie described by his foster mum as not your average ex breeding dog as he is a confident little man who isn’t fazed by other dogs and is happy in his own company. He is surprisingly laid back and enjoys attention and even being picked up but can initially be wary. He is even happy to walk a short distance on a lead.
When he first arrived in foster he was surprised by his glamorous surroundings and spent a few days exploring the back yard. Since then, he has found the sofa and has learnt that a house has lots of rooms not just one tiny one with high walls where you can’t see out. He has even found the sofa and now he has, he likes it very much and spends a lot of time snoozing on it.
Sandy once settled in the home is going to be an active little dog and is strong and keen on the lead. He has had very little lead training so this is still a work in progress and will need to continue in his forever home if he is going to be the adventure buddy that he aspires to be. His recall will need to be practices in a secure area/field before attempting any off lead walking.
If he sees new people in and out of the house that he is wary of he just walks away and watches from a distance until he is happy that no one will hurt him and he is safe.
Sandy has not been cat or child tested so we would recommend older dog savvy children.
House training is a work in progress but he is almost there. As long as he either has access to the garden or is taken out regularly he is a good boy. He sleeps downstairs all night and has not attempted to climb the stairs. Currently he chooses to spend most of day sleeping on the sofa but as he gets fitter and settles, he is going to want to be out exploring and sniffing.
Sandy needs a home with loving parents who will help him continue to adjust to being a much loved pet. He could be an only dog with lots of attention or live with others. He will want to eventually go on long walks and be close to his humans. Older dog savvy children who will help him adjust to his surroundings and without putting any pressure on him to play and be fussed.
