Loucky

Border Collie · Male · Young · 3 years

Lucky arrived at the shelter after a transfer from the SPA of Saint-Omer. He is an energetic, intelligent dog who forms close bonds with humans when he feels safe. Accustomed to herding in the south, he enjoys regular activity and will not thrive in a sedentary home. His future adopter must be able to provide him with adequate physical exercise as well as mental stimulation tailored to his needs to challenge his intelligence and build trust. Adopted once before at his previous shelter, he unfortunately returned because of fear; however, once reassured, he reveals a beautiful sensitivity and genuine attachment to those in his inner circle. Sociable with dogs, Lucky enjoys the company of other canines. Due to his sensitivity and fear-related reactions, we will avoid placing him with young children.

Arrivé au refuge suite à un transfert de la SPA de Saint-Omer. Loucky est un chien dynamique, intelligent et proche de l'humain lorsqu'il est en confiance. Habitué à suivre des troupeaux dans le sud, il apprécie avoir une activité régulière et ne pourra pas s'épanouir dans un foyer trop sédentaire. Son futur adoptant devra être en mesure de lui offrir de bonnes dépenses physiques, mais également des activités mentales adaptées à ses besoins afin de stimuler son intelligence et de renforcer sa confiance. Adopté une première fois dans son ancien refuge, il est malheureusement revenu car, par crainte, il peut se montrer réactif envers les personnes étrangères à son cercle de confiance. Une fois rassuré, il révèle pourtant une belle sensibilité et un réel attachement à ses humains. Sociable avec ses congénères, Loucky apprécie la compagnie des autres chiens. En raison de sa sensibilité et de ses réactions liées à la peur, nous éviterons en revanche un placement avec de jeunes enfants.
