Description
Panda is a truly special young pup (born around May/June 2025). Rescued from a public shelter/killing station, he never had the carefree start every puppy deserves. But now, safe in a private rescue shelter, he’s slowly beginning to hope. What he needs next is simple:
someone gentle, patient and kind — someone who sees the beauty in a shy little survivor.
🔍 Appearance & possible mix
Based on appearance alone, Panda may have some rough-coated / Griffon-type or Terrier-type mix, possibly combined with local shepherd genetics. Nothing is certain — like most rescued pups, his exact mix is a mystery — but that mystery is part of what makes him so special.
What everyone immediately notices are his scruffy looks that make you smile the moment you see him, and of course his perfect little panda mask. It gives him a charming, unforgettable expression — the kind that makes people look twice and instantly fall a little bit in love.
He is expected to grow into a small medium-sized dog (approx. 40–50 cm).
💛 Personality
Panda is soft, sensitive and a little cautious at first. He’s the kind of pup who takes in the world quietly before stepping forward. But once he realises he’s safe, his affection is sincere, loyal and deeply touching.
He wants to trust — he just needs someone who will let him move at his own gentle rhythm.
🏡 His dream home
A calm, patient household without very young children.
People who have time for him — he’s not suited for long full-time hours alone.
A secure, dog-friendly garden is essential so he can explore, toilet safely and learn to walk on a lead at his own pace.
A confident, friendly dog companion would help him greatly, though not required if his humans can guide him with time and consistency.
Give Panda steady love, and he will bloom in the most beautiful way.
He is a little heart waiting to open.
