Name: Shaddow
Breed: Saluki x
Age: 2 years and 6 months
Dog Friendly: Shaddow has been nervous of meeting new dogs at the centre but has made good improvements so far. He prefers meeting dogs when he has a lot of space to move away from them and make his own choice.
Cat Friendly: ? Possible high prey drive due to breed.
Small Animal Friendly: ? Possible high prey drive due to breed but this also can’t be tested at the centre.
Has been around Children: Not able to test this but based off our assessments and his previous owner’s feedback, he would prefer to be in an adult only home.
Crate Trained: Not yet been completed, needs assessing but we will update any potential adopters
How long can the dog be left without issue: Fine in kennel environment, doesn’t seem too worried about being left but normally people around most of the day. Was worried to begin with due to his previous circumstances prior to rescue.
How do they walk on lead: Shaddow needs further lead training but has improved gradually in the time he has been here at the centre. We will update any potential adopters on his current training plan.
Any reactive behaviour seen: Doesn’t like dogs in his face or too close to him, he needs to have enough space to move away if he is unsure.
What are they fed: Mixture of wet and dry food twice a day
Weight (kg): Around 23kg
Shaddow was in a difficult situation with is previous owner who loved him very much but unfortunately due to personal circumstances, he could no longer continue with Shaddow and it was for both of their welfare interests.
