Spice – 9 month old male Parson Russell Terrier
Spice needs a terrier experienced family who are going to respect his needs as a ‘working type’ terrier and work with him in partnership to build his trust. Spice would do best living with other dogs, but no cats or small furries/feathers.
Spice needs to be around aware adults and needs a non-confrontational approach, ideally distraction, to lead into desired behaviours. He gains continual approval and ‘good boys’ shaping his behaviour. If pushed or overexcited he can nip. Not to live or be unsupervised around young children.
Spice was found stray in April. He was saved from the pound by the kennel owner and terrier rescue have taken on his care and rehoming. He was homed briefly, but couldn’t cope with knowing there were caged rats in the house.
Spice is a super looking terrier who is ‘hot’ and game for fun. He will create his own entertainment so a sense of humour is required to delight in his antics. Don’t take him too seriously or take his mistakes personally. We are looking for a family who really ‘get’ terriers and understand the main task is to develop Spice’s repertoire of skills so he engages in meaningful dialogue rather than resorting to retort. He is by nature extremely loving.
Spice is a easy mixer with dogs and really needs at least one other companion to share his life with and to offer him a role model “stay cool; treat them like this and the cheese pieces just flow”! Spice needs a dog centered family where his needs are foremost, whilst not allowing him to call the tune. He is fun to walk on an extender and as he matures will learn to gauge his excitement levels and feelings of joy. Care should be taken when he meets children inside and outside with his energy kept calm and all contact supervised, as his instincts are still a little feral. Lovely, lovely Spice needs a warm bed of rice to soften and relax on.
“Please note this dog is currently in boarding kennels and is also available for foster until a ‘forever’ home is found”.
