Wotsit

Male · Puppy · 2 months

Meet gorgeous Wotsit, one of our adorable Crisp Pups! Wotsit arrived at Battersea with his brothers and sisters as part of an accidental litter, so unfortunately we have no information about his background or parents. He is easily recognisable thanks to the rather lovely stripe running down his nose! Wotsit enjoys a fuss but is also happy snoozing in a comfy spot. He is the cheekiest of the litter, though, and can become frustrated when things don't go his way. He has shown the strongest working-breed characteristics of his siblings and has growled and snapped when frustrated, so he will need an experienced home that understands these behaviours and can help him learn to manage his emotions as he grows. We believe Wotsit may be a Lurcher cross Belgian Malinois. While we can't be certain of his breed, his new owners should have experience with working breeds, and understand the needs of an intelligent, potentially high-energy dog who will require plenty of mental stimulation, training and appropriate outlets for his energy. As Wotsit is still very young and hasn't been able to meet many dogs while awaiting his vaccinations, we're still learning how he feels about them. He has played and snoozed alongside his siblings and could potentially live with a confident, tolerant adult dog who can cope with puppy behaviours and act as a role model. He may also be able to live with cats or other pets, provided they can tolerate a playful puppy and introductions are managed carefully. Although Wotsit has been happy meeting people and has shown no general sensitivities to handling, he has been particularly mouthy during play and has shown frustration towards handlers. For this reason, he would be best suited to an adult-only home. Wotsit will need a private garden where he can begin toilet training, practise his training in a secure space and gradually get used to the outside world as he becomes fully vaccinated. He could live in a range of locations, provided his owners can give him gradual, positive exposure to things like traffic and public transport. Wotsit has lots of growing and learning ahead of him, and will need patient, dedicated owners who understand working-breed traits and are ready to put time into his training and development. With the right experience and support, he has the opportunity to grow into a wonderful companion.
