Bedlington Terrier Cross

Stanley – 2 year old male Fell Terrier cross Bedlington Terrier

Stanley is a handsome 4 year old Fell Terrier cross Bedlington Terrier with striking looks and a loving nature. We now know what we are looking for for Stanley. Everything for Stanley rests around his focused comfort zone “being with his ‘beloved’ person” ideally on the lap and having lovely walks.

He needs a home where there is the balance of ‘companion pet’ i.e. sleeps in the bedroom in his crate and living an ordinary relaxed life full of dog activites. Stanley suffers from separation anxiety which manifests in acute anxiety at being apart from his ‘special’ person so a constructive programme with multiple bonding encouraged to avoid the need for ‘weaning’ as he clings and claims his special person soon upon homing. Stanley needs to find his identity independent of merging it into others. Special boy with special needs.

He could live with another or other tolerant dog companions as he is still working through the ‘only dog’ syndrome. He walks beautifully on the lead until he sees a dog or squirrel then he sparkles, but relaxes with confident management. Once his energy is flowing he relaxes into a cheerful chappie! Stanley has a tight non-moult coat which needs attention every 4-6 months. Stanley is neutered, chipped and vaccinated.

Easy to manage in kennels and good in a home. He mixes well with respectful visiting children and visitors in general. Would benefit from a home that understands his terrier nature and makes allowances for it so he can enjoy it also! Stanley is a super terrier.

“Please note that this dog is currently in kennels and is also available for foster until a ‘forever’ home is found”.
