Description

PLEASE READ FULL ADVERT Buster is looking for a new home. He has come to us (his original breeders) as his owner is unfortunately unable to give him what he needs due to her health and has made the difficult decision to pass him on to a home that can. He's understandably anxious with the move to us, however has settled quickly and is a very sweet boy. He is 2 years old, up to date with vaccinations (record provided), worm and flea treatments, and has had a recent health check with the vet. He's healthy, incredibly strong, and super high energy! Due to his owner being unwell his training was never completed and will need to be started again. In the time we have had him with us he has already shown training potential and improvement. He walks well on a lead but will pull if allowed. He is house/toilet trained and crate trained. We put him in a crate when leaving the house as he would often chew items/furniture in his previous home, we are assuming this is due to lack of regular exercise and enrichment, basically acting out of boredom. We are unsure how he would react to being left alone with free roam of the house. He knows basic commands, sit etc. Needs work with his recall but learns fast. He is DOG REACTIVE and we're not sure how he is with other animals so we will only consider homes with no other pets. This is for the sake of both Busters and other pets safety and happiness. His reactivity towards other dogs should be considered deeply before deciding to give him a home as he will need PROFESSIONAL training in this area. It is very important to set personal boundaries with Buster right from the start, if this is not done he will jump and nip (playfully), but this of course can cause issues and be very overwhelming. He's friendly with people although sometimes a little anxious when first meeting them. He has previously lived with an 15 year old boy, and has spent supervised time with our 2 young children, showing that he is very gentle with them. He needs an owner that is willing to put in a lot of time and effort into training him. Once his training is complete we have no doubt that he will be an incredible companion, full of love and loyalty. His owner needs to be fairly strong as he is very strong himself, and experience with the breed or a similar breed and/or training dogs would be preferred. We want to find him his perfect forever home so please be absolutely sure you are ready to take him on if interested. Since coming back from his original owner Buster has been to 2 new homes and brought back to us both times. The first time was due to his reactivity towards dogs being more than they felt they could handle. The second time was due to his high energy and pushing boundaries being to overwhelming for them. He can be a handful when boundaries are not set so please keep this in mind when considering giving him a home. Being back and forth is understandably very confusing and unsettling for Buster, he deserves a wonderful, loving forever home where he can settle in and receive the time and training he needs. Please, we ask if you are considering giving Buster a home, think very seriously about whether you are 100% sure you can be his forever home. He will come with a bed, blanket, toys, lead and harness, a slip lead, a recall lead, food and vaccination and microchip booklets. If you would like to give Buster a home please send us a message with some information about yourself/family/home and why you think you would be able to give him the home he needs and deserves. A video call will be arranged to speak about Buster and his needs before any visits arranged. If you are then sure you are still interested a visit to meet him can be arranged. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to send a message.
