MORE INFORMATION ON SHADOW
Shadow is a clever, affectionate young dog who has had a tough start in life. He’s already been adopted and rehomed more than once, not because he isn’t a wonderful dog, but because he needs a special kind of home to help him thrive. What he really needs now is someone patient, committed, and ready to work with him so he can finally settle and blossom.
He is a playful boy with a big heart, and when he relaxes, he brings joy to everyone who meets him. He has some lovely calm moments where he chooses to snuggle up with humans and other dogs, enjoys play, and is quick to learn new things. Like many Podenco Manetos he is quite the character and has a cheeky side - a big personality in a small package! He currently shares his home with another dog, who he gets along with very well. He could live with other dogs or as a solo companion.
Shadow is currently working through some challenges, including anxiety, shadow chasing in the home, and lead reactivity towards unfamiliar dogs on walks. He is already making good progress with a behaviour plan and anxiety medication (which the rescue can cover), and we have a behaviourist who will continue to provide ongoing support to anyone who adopts or fosters him. With consistency and commitment, Shadow is showing that he can really succeed.
We are looking for a home set in a rural or small-town setting so his walks can nice and quite/calm. He has lived happily with children before, we feel a home with children aged 12 or over would work best for him.
Above all, Shadow needs stability and someone who will stick with him through the ups and downs as he continues his journey. He is vaccinated, and tested negative for all Mediterranean diseases, and his neutering will be reviewed with us at the right time in the future. He is ready to go to his next home now!
