Jack

Cavapoo · Male · Adult · 8 years

Jack is a sensitive Cavapoo who is looking for a patient and experienced home where he can build confidence and settle in at his own pace. While he has a playful and loving side with those he has bonded with slowly, he can be worried by unfamiliar people and new situations. Jack is seeking owners who have owned or cared for dogs before and have a solid understand of stranger reactivity and can take their time with Jack while introducing him to new people, without placing pressure on him. Jack can bark and growl at people at times and this has been seen in his previous home, as well as here at Battersea Old Windsor. His new owners must be pepared to continue the training and management advice we have put in place to help him so far. He can also find more invasive and clinical handling stressful, so this will need to be worked on slowly in his new home to help continue a positive association to different scenarios. Once Jack is comfortable, his affectionate nature truly shines. He adores attention from his favourite people, he can paw at them for more fuss and becomes a loyal, loving companion who enjoys being close to those he knows best. Jack will need to have multiple owners who will be involved in his care to help avoid any over bonding behaviours and help work on his independance in the home. He is highly motivated by treats and enjoys toys, sometimes becoming vocal and demand barking towards his handlers to either throw a toy for him or if they have taken too long to reward him with a treat. This makes these fantastic tools for building trust, creating positive experiences and supporting ongoing training. Jack would prefer to be the only dog in the home, as he enjoys having his own space. However, he may benefit from walking alongside calm companions who will not overwhelm him. With a predictable routine, plenty of patience and new owners committed to his ongoing training and helping him feel safe and secure, Jack has so much love to give. He is ready to find a home where he can relax, grow in confidence and become a cherished member of the family.
