Hal

Male · Adult · 5 years

Hal is a medium to large German shepherd cross aged around two years old. He has an unhealthy interest in the cat. Hal is ok with some dogs but seems to like his own personal space and doesn’t have much patience for the youngsters in the pack. respectful children of any age. We found Hal on our honeymoon after he turned up at the complex we were staying in under quite mysterious circumstances. His coat was congealed with some kind of sticky substance and he’d been shaved in places. He was the easiest stray ever to catch and rescue as he would literally befriend anyone. Hal is ok with some dogs but seems to like his own personal space and doesn’t have much patience for the youngsters in the pack. He also has an unhealthy interest in the cat. He is amazing with people and loves men, women and children alike. He was a hit with the holiday makers at the complex who all stopped us and told us how happy they were that we would take him at the end of our holiday and find him a proper loving home. He could live with respectful children of any age but he does currently jump up for cuddles (we are discouraging this) so may knock over very small children. He’s just a super handsome dog with so much love to give and any shepherd lover would be lucky to adopt him. Hal fostered Norwich Norfolk If you are interested please message or call between 9am to 5pm Mon – Fri or 9am to 4pm Sat. . Adoption Donation Fees are Puppies already neutered and all adult dogs: £430. Un-neutered puppies on spay/neuter contracts: £530 (You will receive a £100 rebate once you send us proof of neutering). Senior dogs (10+ years): £150–£250 (depending on age and individual needs). Adoption Terms & Conditions When you adopt a Safe Rescue dog, you MUST use a slip lead. This will keep your dog safe: your new dog will be nervous and will not trust you, and you will not know which situations might upset your dog. If your dog panics, then a slip lead is the only way to prevent your dog from escaping (many dogs can escape from a collar and/or harness). It will take AT LEAST 3-6 months for your dog to settle-in and for you to know your dog fully (longer for nervous dogs). The slip lead must ALWAYS be used during this settling-in period. Even after your dog is settled, it is safest to use the slip lead in situations where your dog may become scared (e.g. visiting new places, around unfamiliar people, at the vet), and it situations where unexpected triggers might happen (e.g. around bonfire night). Nervous dogs may always need to wear a slip-lead as a back-up safety measure. The slip lead is a safety device and must NEVER be used as a training tool. Using the lead to apply pressure to the dog’s neck is damaging. If your dog pulls on the lead, then we can advise you on training methods that avoid harm. Once your dog is settled, you may want to consider using a harness (together with the slip lead) if your dog is comfortable with being handled when it is fitted. Most harnesses are not escape-proof, but harnesses with a strap behind the ribcage (e.g. Ruffwear Webmaster or Perfect Fit Harnesses) are safer. Retractable / extendable leads must never be used on our dogs. Adopted dogs must be collected from the rescue and transported straight home in a secure metal crate. Fences and gates must be 5foot minimum in height and secure. Hal is a medium to large German shepherd cross aged around two years old. He has an unhealthy interest in the cat.
