Poor Buddy has had a really poor start in life and is extremely anxious around new people and in new situations. He is SUPER FRIENDLY with other dogs and is much more confident when he is amongst them and we are therefore looking to place him in a home as a second dog with a confident and well balanced canine companion as a role model. Once he knows and trusts you he is very affectionate and loveable x He is a busy boy and would need a fairly active home where there is lots going on as he is very inquisitive and likes to be involved with everything. He does suffer from quite bad Separation Anxiety issues and any home would need to be about most of the time and be happy to work with us on a program to help manage this. Apart from out walking and enjoying lots of sniffs, Buddy's favourite hobby is sitting with you for cuddles and he is more than happy to snuggle up on the sofa with you x
All true terrier lovers will be smitten with this boy whose antics will make you smile. He loves a good country walk and is used to a long line and will not be one that can be let off intially as he will pick up a scent and go. Any offlead will need to be in a secure area. He would be more suited to a rural home as we feel he would not benefit from suburban park walking but is better in a low density field and woodland area. Please give this lovely lad a chance x
UIPDATE Buddy has now been in foster at HQ for over 2 months and his confidence is coming on in leaps and bounds although he is still wary of strange men. He enjoys the company of other dogs and could live with another well matched canine companion. He has quite a strict routine here and this has helped greatly with his Separation Anxiety and he is happy to chill in his bed with a chew and enjoys a good snooze after his morning and afternoon run x He is still a work in progress and any transition to a new home will need to be done gradually.
All dogs are vaccinated, microchipped and neutered where medically appropriate.
Please note that due to limited resources we are only able to rehome our dogs within a 20 mile radius of Reigate.
