MORE INFORMATION ON TOKIO

Tokio was rescued by our partner association Refugio San Anton Moron and has sadly been in kennels with them for a few years now. This is through no fault of her own but is sadly the reality for many podencos in Spain, they are just overlooked. She was found with another dog named Rio, and their litter of puppies. Their puppies and Rio have all found loving homes but unfortunately Tokio is still waiting.

On our fist visit, Tokio was very held back and nervous when we approached her kennel, hiding behind Rio. Even when approached one on one her anxiety got the better of her and we chose to give her space. We can see their is a curious side to her as when we have visited since she has allowed us to give her a stroke and has been inquisitive to pass us and sit near us. She did still shake however if pushed too far and default to Rio for guidance.

Now that Rio has been re-homed and Tokio has been paired with different kennel buddies we are seeing her blossom her way, she is finding her feet and and its wonderful to see! She wasts to engage and interact, she enjoys her outside walks on the lead and free time playing with the other dogs. Its not uncommon for unhealthy dependencies between dogs to form, and we are seeing that with a resrt its doing her and her confidence the world of good!

Tokio needs a rural home with a garden where she can learn her new world at her own pace, another dog is a must as we can see this helps with her confidence. An adult only home would give her less stimulation and unpredictability as she’s learning life as a pet, but we have not noticed a preference towards men or women.

We know that all she needs is time to come around, someone to introduce her to the big world slowly and show her that she is always safe now. Tokio will be one of those dogs that are SO rewarding when you bring them round and we can’t wait to see her really blossom in a home!

Tokio is neutered, vaccinated and tested negative for all Mediterranean diseases, excluding Leish - as already stated she has previously tested positive but with treatment is now presenting as negative. She is passported and available for adoption now.
