Sonny D2025-22
• Needs a resident dog
• Dog savvy cats
• Dog savvy children over 5
• Needs to attend puppy class
Sonny is a 6 month old Westie cross Bichon described by his foster family as a nervous little guy but he will come and say hello once he gets to know you.
Sonny can be homes with dog savvy children 5 and over who will give him time to settle so they can be best friends.
He can be homed with cats as he is young enough to learn with supervision. He has met cats and has been fine but they were dog savvy. He will little bark.
Sonny loves playing with his toys and doesn’t mind other dogs joining in.
Walking on collar lead and harness is a work in progress. He is happy to have a collar on but does not like the lead attached preferring to wear a harness. He has been on very short walks as everything is a little scary at the moment, but he is gaining in confidence daily. He just needs his pawrents to be patient with him while he gets used to the world.
He currently sleeps in a crate overnight and sleeps all night using this as his safe space as foster mum has made it all cwtchy for him.
House training is a work in progress and as he gets easily distracted, he needs to be encouraged to go into the garden regularly to do his business and given lots of praise when he has done well. Following another dog and the occasional cheese tax works.
Sonny loves his food and is enjoying good treats taking the gently. He is fine to eat around others with no issues.
Sonny needs a home with a resident dog to learn from. A patient family who can spend lots of time with him and take him to puppy class to be a good rescue ambassador. He would not suit a busy home with lots going on due to his nervous nature. He is still young. He has had a crap start to life so is only now getting the attention he so desperately needs and craves.
