MORE INFORMATION ON SCOOBY
Scooby is currently in foster in the UK and is a wonderful boy who absolutely adores people and is so affectionate and loving. He loves human contact and snuggles and truly relaxes in the company of people. This does mean he can struggle a little without people present so we are looking for a home where his humans will be around most of the time, and for the times they are not, they are happy to continue working with Scooby on this (with the help of our trainer). He is a clever boy and loves to learn - he’s learnt sit and paw very quickly, and also knows to sit down before crossing a road. He walks well on the lead and will happily and calmly pass most other on lead dogs but doesn’t enjoy off lead dogs coming into his space (totally fair enough!) so will need an adopter than is happy to advocate for him in these situations and continue his training.
He’s really good in the home - clean and non destructive and happily settles down and snoozes. He travels well in the car too. Scooby can become a little overwhelmed by lots of new and stimulating situations - so we’re looking for a home in a less urban environment (smaller towns, villages and anything more rural would be ideal) where his walks can be a little more relaxing. Or where an owner is happy to drive him to a quieter area for his walks. He will need time to settle and adjust once he is adopted - like many podencos he is a sensitive, loving soul who needs time and patience but will reward you with the most loving bond and be your best friend for life. He certainly has ‘soul dog’ energy about him!
Scooby was previously adopted very briefly to a busy home and reflecting back, we can see that the environment and routine was a little overwhelming for him and as a result he had a couple of incidents with family dogs when he was visiting them (no issues with the resident dog that he was living with). We can discuss these in more detail with any prospective adopters. As a result he is looking for a home either as an only dog where he can have all that wonderful love and affection to himself, or with another very well balanced dog where intros and interactions can be calmy managed and supervised. He’s not as keen on smaller dogs or bigger fluffy dogs (shepherds, husky types etc) in particular when out on walks, so we think we’re best to avoid homes with those breeds. As he’s in the UK he is available for meet and greets which will be supervised by the team. He could live with older children that are 12+ and calmer and respectful.
Scooby is neutered, vaccinated, and tested negative for all Mediterranean diseases. He is passported and available for adoption now.
