Jake arrived from Romania over two years ago. He had been picked up as a street dog at about 3yrs old & spent 3-4 yrs in a safe shelter before we could bring him to the UK. Jake was so terrified of humans & the environment when he first arrived that he was not rehomable.
He spent some time at kennels where he was struggling to cope, & has been in foster for over a year. In foster Jake has been exposed to many different environmental stimuli & he is confident in most outdoor situations. He is also now used to living in a home environment & loves doing puzzles & clicker training. He is still worried around people but he will approach anyone for treats & will allow stroking in exchange for a reward. Although Jake has improved significantly, it is tiny steps forward with him, he may never be a dog that trusts enough for cuddles but he does like to be with you & lay at your feet. He LOVES his walks, & will walk for miles. He has a really good recall, but does need to wear a trailing line in order to catch him due to his worry of people trying to grab at him. There is no malice in Jake, he will just choose to move away if worried. Because he is a work in progress, he needs a quiet home with people that understand behaviour, his adopters will need to commit to continuing with his rehabilitation.
He has other doggie friends in his foster home & has benefited from being around them. Therefore another confident dog is a must in his new home. Any potential adopters will also need to commit to multiple meets & greets with Jake prior to adopting him. Jake has a cheeky side to his nature & is becoming very nosey, he wants to be involved in everything. He is such a lovely boy & has started to really enjoy his life.
Adoption fee applies.
