β€οΈ Rescue Story
Ryzhik was rescued from the chaos and danger of the full-scale cruel war in Ukraine, where he faced hardship but survived with a trusting heart. Since arriving safely in the UK, he has had a loving home, but due to his familyβs changing circumstances and long working hours, Ryzhik now needs a new, more suitable home.
This is what his family says: βDue to work commitments and hours that I work, it is not fair for him to be left at home for that amount of time. Whilst I do have a dog walker, I just feel that it is not enough for him and feel that he isnβt getting the level of interaction that he needs.β
πΎ Detailed Information
This is what his family says about him:
βIβm very sad, I just donβt think Iβm able to provide him with what he needs. I think someone else would be able to give him a better life, which he deserves.
He is an extremely loving little boy and loves lots of attention and cuddles. Very playful and loves to chase his toys in the garden. He can be a little bit mischievous off the lead when walking and can wander off, so maybe he needs further recall training. He loves eating meat! Wonβt touch fruit or vegetables.
He struggles in environments where he feels unsafe, he becomes anxious and can become reactive. So I think further help with this anxiety would be good. When walking, some smaller dogs he doesnβt like and will growl when they come near. Iβve had to pull him away from dogs a few time because he has reacted with them.
I think he needs to be with someone who is at home most of time, and becomes lonely being in his own. He loves playing with my friends dog who is a Labrador, so think he gets on better with bigger dogs. Maybe having this company at home would be better also.β
π‘ Ideal Family
Ryzhik needs a patient family or individual who understands his possible anxious side during the walks and can provide consistent love and guidance. He would flourish with someone who is home more often, offering companionship and support. A household with a bigger female dog friend would be beneficial, and a calm, stable environment will help him thrive. This gentle ginger boy has so much love to give and deserves a home where he feels safe and valued every day.
π©Ί Health Information
Ryzhik is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for C.Brucella before trip (certificate provided). He is in good health and ready for his next chapter with the right family.
