Adopt Asta
Podenco · Male · Young · 2 years
Asta was left behind by his family who could not have him anymore, because he grew too big. Apparently the elderly woman of the family got him as a puppy and thought he will be a Yorkshire. Well, Yorkshire he is definitely not, and his tail is bigger than a Yorkshire! Asta is a WOW dog, he looks so stunningly special, like a mixture of a wolfdog with a bit of Podenco Ratonero but also Dogo Argentino. We don't really know what breed he is but he looks so beautiful and mighty, like a dog that you would see in epic fantasy movies, walking in the wild forests. Asta's shoulder height is 64cm, and even though he is big, he walks very well on the leash, and most of the time stays calmly walking by your side. When he sees another friendly kind dog, he is happy to say hello both to nice male and female dogs, and he is planned to live together with a group of females soon. Asta listens well to his name and comes to you when you call him. He does like snacks, but he does not get obsessed about them, so it is very nice to do little training exercise with him, without him getting overly excited. Asta was left in the shelter with a long list of things he likes and how he has lived before in a home, but what the family did not mention, is that Asta has a femur bone malformation on his back right leg. He lives well with it, walks and runs well, but to give him a long happy life ahead, traumatologist has advised to operate on the leg, which will be followed by physiotherapy, so he can grow muscles on that side of his body, and soon to run more comfortably. The shelter will be taking care of his operation and therapy, he is also available for adoption before the surgery, that is not a problem.
