Shelby
Male · Young · 3 years
30-05-26 Shelby is a fantastic boy who came to us from his breeder after he was returned to them from a home. We are told that the children in his previous home were too much for him and were allowed to bother him and didn't always handle him gently, which has left Shelby needing a little extra reassurance and understanding. Due to this, we feel Shelby would be happiest in an adult-only home where he can feel safe, secure, and truly relax. Before arriving at Many Tears, Shelby spent some time in a foster home where he was absolutely fabulous, showing just how loving and adaptable he can be in the right environment. He is a friendly and affectionate boy who loves to be cuddled and enjoys being picked up and fussed. We think in the right home he is going to make the most wonderful companion! We are told that there was one occasion where Shelby got a little too over excited and started to guard his blanket after humping it. We will continue to monitor and assess him, but it may well have been a one-off incident that settles following neutering. However, this is something his adopters will need to be aware of and comfortable managing. As Shelby has previously lived in a home, he may already be house trained, although he may need a few reminders and some patience while he settles into his new routine. Shelby could happily live with other dogs or enjoy life as the only dog in the home, provided his adopters are around most of the time and have plenty of time to spend with him. He can walk well on a lead and will love to go on walks and adventures with his new family. Our vets have noted that Shelby has a Grade 2 luxating patella, this may improve with time and gentle exercise, but would not be coverable by insurance. Shelby has a travel document. Shelby has been given the Gift of Lift by Nicola Harper-Gibbons This dog can be homed with a resident dog.
