Louis – 8 year old male Patterdale Terrier
Louis – 8 year old male Patterdale Terrier.
Homing Requirement: Louis needs a terrier experienced family without young children; he could live with another dog. Louis needs a terrier proof garden and to be retained on a lead whilst out. He needs terrier management during excitable events like post delivery or joggers passing close by.
His Story: Louis has been owned since a pup and has grown up with children in their late teens. He has had his moments like many terriers, but the family are now wary as a daughter visits daily with her baby and they cannot trust Louis around the grandchild as is general with working type terriers.
Advert: Louis is a handsome dog who has a gentle nature and is a loved family pet. He has been a treasured family pet and his terrorisms’ have been accommodated and ‘honed in’ with an aware family. He is managed on a lead and generally is good on his walks unless he encounters too much excitement, like a cyclist coming too close. He mixes well with dogs and befriends them, given gentle introductions to build trust. He has dog friends around in his house and he also stays with a dog minder whilst his family have holidays. He could live with another dog. Louis is neutered and vax’d.
Louis is a really good example of the Patterdale, has had a stable background and is able to be left for periods without event. He travels well in the car. Louis however hasn’t been around very young children and copes with respectful aware visitors, but would behave ‘like a terrier’ with running or crying children around. A new baby is visiting daily. The family have to find an alternative home for him where he can relax and not be ‘put out of the way’ as a risk management strategy. Louis makes a wonderful family pet and presents as an easy terrier to an experienced terrier home. He is loving, sleeps in his bed in the bedroom and generally is there with his family, involved in any activity on the go!
