Lol

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Lol is a medium sized crossbreed aged around five years old. Not been cat tested. Can live with or without resident dog. Respectful children 12 plus. Lol has joined us recently from the Botosani public shelter in Romania. The first thing you need to know about him as that he ‘grins’. At first you have to look twice as it can be mistaken for a snarl but he just grins every time you speak to him. This, combined with his under shot jaw, makes him a uniquely cute chap that we just had to name Lol because he appears to be laughing. Somewhere along the line he has also lost most or all of the sight in one eye. Lol is the most cuddly and affectionate boy. He can be submissive at first and shows signs of an abusive past as he will cower at sudden moves and sounds. He gets on very nicely with the other dogs in his foster home but could also live as the only dog. He would like a quietish and calm household with no children under the age of twelve. Lol 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. Lol is a medium sized crossbreed aged around five years old. Not been cat tested. Can live with or without resident dog.
