🐶Name: Karma 🐶Breed: French Bulldog 🐶Age: 2.5 years 🐶Sex: Male 🐶Background: Karma came to us from a UK pound after he’d been found as a stray. He’d been badly treated & was very fearful of people, he struggled in kennels but has thrived in foster. 🐶Personality: Karma is a special boy who’s had a difficult life so far. He’s experienced trauma & abuse that has left him reactive to some triggers. Karma’s improved hugely while in foster by working on building confidence & impulse control, and he’s becoming more trusting every day. New situations & people can still make him nervous but he’s gaining confidence very quickly & we’re confident with continued training this will carry on in a new home. He’s also very smart! He loves training, picking up new commands quickly & is eager to please. 🕓 Left alone: Once settled Karma does well on his own up to 6 hours. 💩House training: He’s done brilliantly house training in foster. With a good routine he has no accidents. 🏃‍♀️Exercise: As a ******************d breed Karma struggles with BOAS & can only endure minimal exercise. He needs an owner mindful of his breathing who is able to manage this & also provide mental enrichment. ✂️Grooming: Karma’s longer coat needs some brushing so he doesn’t get mats, he loves being brushed! He can’t yet be bathed as he’s nervous of water (likely from past experience) but with time & positive experiences he may work up to this. 👀Adopter Profile: We’re looking for someone patient & committed to help Karma with his continued rehabilitation. He needs someone to go at his pace & understand that healing from trauma takes time. Knowledge of brachycephalic breeds would be a big benefit but is not essential. He needs someone who can keep up with positive training & continue his progress. 🏡Home/garden needs: A quiet home with a private secure garden. 👶Minimum age of children: Due to his reactivity & unknown past Karma needs a home with NO kids or ANY visiting kids. 🐕Resident dogs: He would do best as an only dog. 🐈Cat tested: He cannot live with cats. 🩺Medical issues: Karma’s had BOAS surgery & nostril resection. This has improved his breathing but it’s still far from ideal. There’s no further surgery that can help this. Karma’s breathing will always need to be carefully monitored & managed & precautions taken in warm weather. For anyone interested in adopting Karma, we will happily provide further details on his behaviour/triggers & discuss these if your application is shortlisted. Karma is a work in progress & his rehabilitation won’t be an overnight fix; he’s also incredibly loving & rewarding to work with, he would be an excellent project for a dog-savvy owner willing to spend the time to help him flourish. We will remain on-hand throughout Karma’s transition to ensure he settles well into a new home & his adopter will be supported at every stage. All our dogs are neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, parasite treated & come with 5 weeks free insurance. If you live within an hour of L31, please complete an adoption application form to enquire with AS MUCH INFO as possible:
