Adopt Lemmy

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 6 months

Say hello to Lemmy the giant puppy! Lemmy is a Caucasian shepherd that was brought into our care as a fake stray. He was in an awful condition when he arrived with us and his coat was completely matted and he was covered in urine and faeces. Poor Lemmy is only around 5-6 months old and was terrified when he arrived , he had to be carried to and from his kennel for the vets and groomers because he was so scared he would plant himself on the floor. Thankfully Lemmy has been making amazing progress in the last few days … He’s had a trip to see the girls at salty pawz and they all teamed up to save as much of his coat as possible. Lemmy was amazing for his groom and enjoyed every second (including all the cuddles!) and the team managed to keep most of his coat which is a big win considering how matted he was! Lemmy can be quite nervous of new things, especially men! But once he has had some time to sniff and slowly say hello he quickly comes around and that butt is doing a wiggle like no tomorrow! Lemmy has been having slow socialisation sessions, meeting new people, saying hello to dogs and having play dates with them, exploring new noises and sights and smells and he has been doing absolutely wonderful. With continued work on this and training he will continue to thrive and become a well rounded adult boy. Caucasian shepherds are livestock guardian breeds that come with a lot of hard work, he will be looking for a home that has experience with larger working breeds so that he can have the best chance at thriving in his new home . He will need to attend regular training classes to continue working on his life and social skills. Giving Lemmy canine friends to play with and Learn from has been essential for his growth! We believe he would be best suited to a home with a neutered resident canine that likes to play but also has a chill side , to help boost his confidence. Lemmy could also potentially live with cats and children 12+ depending on intros done at the centre .
