Freddie
Male
7 1/2 Years
Cavalier x Bichon
Freddie has had numerous stays in the sanctuary. We are determined that Freddies next adoption will be successful.
Freddie has displayed aggression on numerous occasions in the past.
Most of these incidents have been around resource guarding of items he considers valuable to him, or reacting fearfully when being interrupted where he is resting. Our behaviourist has indicated there may have been a pain element to this.
Freddie has now been on a pain relief and hopefully he will be more comfortable in future.
Cute things about Freddie –
His little underbite.
The way he waddles when he walks.
His fave toys- dinosaur, octopus and caterpillar.
His enthusiast morning greetings to his fave people.
Freddie is the most clearest example we have seen of a dog preferring women over men.
With having had so many unsuccessful adoptions we will now saying that Freddie should live in a female only home.
There must be no children living or visiting the home.
Prospective adopters should be prepared to work with our behaviourist and staff at the sanctuary to help set the home and Freddie up for success.
Adopters should be tuned in to dog body language and have experience of dealing with similar behaviour issues.
Some small dogs feel the need to shout louder to be listened to so it is important we listen to Freddie’s communication.
Assistance will be provided by way of our Aprils Wish program to help with behaviour.
Further assistance will be provided by our supported adoption scheme where we will continue to pay for Freddie’s pain relief.
Freddie may be able to live with another dog pending successful meet and greets.
