Handsome boy Russell is a medium sized cross breed 8-9 years old reserved chap, currently in foster in Norfolk under the care of Safe Rescue who are seeking a child free home with at least one other dog, to become besties with our boy.
If there was ever a dog that needs to be shown love, and to understand what its like to live in a caring and warm home, it is Russell…..although he wouldn’t want you to know this ! His fosterer says he’s funny, in that he always seems grumpy, but never reactive, so perhaps its just his face and he’s still coming to terms with domestic life and being around people that care.
Russell came to the UK from Romania about a year ago and has slowly become accustomed to being groomed and stroked, never having had any of these things done to him before. It must all be so strange, so little wonder its a gradual process, and will only go on improving as he starts to understand and trust his new owners.
He’s such a good boy, loves his food, and gets on with other well behaved dogs, so its felt that Russell would benefit from living with another dog from whom he could gain confidence and trust and learn that life in a home can be good.
Russell can be left for short periods on his own, requires a child free home, and is not cat tested. At the moment he doesn’t seem enthusiastic about going on walks, or for anything else for that matter, but with time and with another doggy chum, it would be brilliant to see this darling boy come to life, and bring a smile to his face.
Safe Rescue have a policy that all dogs adopted from them must wear a slip lead on walks. Please only enquire about Safe Rescue dogs if you are happy to always use a slip lead – extendable leads are not acceptable to Safe Rescue. All dogs have to be collected and a crate must be used. Further details around Safe Rescues rehoming policy can be found here.
If you have room in your heart, and the loving home that Russell is seeking, or just want to know more, please contact Safe Rescue
