Adopt Rhubarb
Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 15 months
Rhubarb's story started in Romania where she was born in a school. The local pound was called and the dog catchers went to round up the full litter. From that day, all she has ever known is a very busy and chaotic life in a Romanian public shelter. It was a large litter that Rhubarb came from and all of her siblings were quickly adopted and starting their new lives in the UK. Rhubarb was left behind with her brother Tato where they both grew ever more fearful of humans. We agreed to take these babies on before they lost their chance of ever being able to find a family of their own as they would have just become numbers over there and lost of the ever expanding faces or terrified dogs. Rhubarb has been with us a few weeks now and is making slow progess, she's going to need a very patient and understanding home to help her settle in and feel safe. Rhubarb's whole world is other dogs, she wont' cope in a home without at least one other resident dog living there, one that is friendly, confident and can show them how to just be a dog. Rhubarb is too fearful to be able to safely cat test at this time. Rhubarb is too scared to see what her real energy levels would be like in a home but she does LOVE to run and play around with the other dogs at the rescue So long as Rhubarb is with another dog, she should be ok to be left for approx 4 hours. Without another dog, she has serious anxiety and will scream the place down. She will need to slowly learn over time that it is ok to be alone and that she is safe, she has never not been around other dogs for more than a few minutes. Rhubarb is too fearful to attempt lead training at this time Rhubarb has no form of basic training
