Description
Stan has never known what it feels like to truly belong.
As a tiny puppy, he was found alone at the side of a road in Romania after his mother had been killed. He and his siblings were taken to safety, but rescue in Romania is never simple. Despite the kindness of those who cared for them, disease swept through the litter and some of his brothers and sisters didn’t survive.
Stan survived.
With so many dogs needing help every day, there simply wasn’t the time or resources to give him the socialisation every puppy deserves. By the time Freedom Angels brought him to the UK, he was frightened of the world around him.
Over the last three months, his foster carer has worked tirelessly to help him. With the support of behaviourists, patience, consistency and kindness, Stan has made real progress. He is beginning to trust, beginning to learn and beginning to believe that people can be safe.
But he needs more.
At around 10 months old, Stan deserves a home where he can finally settle instead of sharing his foster home with several other dogs. He needs someone with patience, understanding and a kind heart who can look beyond his fears and see the lovely young dog waiting to emerge.
To give him the best chance, Stan has been chemically castrated rather than permanently neutered, as this avoids any risk of increasing his fearfulness while he continues to develop.
Could you be the person who changes Stan’s life?
Freedom Angels is offering long-term foster for Stan, with the rescue covering all of his veterinary costs. If, after around 12 months, you decide you would like to make him a permanent member of your family, a significantly reduced adoption donation will apply.
Stan doesn’t need perfection.
He just needs one person willing to believe in him.
If you think you could offer Stan the chance he has never had, please get in touch today.
