Adoptujte Luca

Luca is an incredible boy who has come into our care from a breeder in search of a fresh start. He already knows his name very well, so his new adopters should keep this the same to avoid confusing him as he settles into his new life. Luca was previously used as a fake security dog and spent most of his life living outdoors, but beneath his impressive appearance is a real softie. He is easy to handle and genuinely enjoys human company, although he understandably found kennel life quite stressful when he first arrived and would often pace his kennel and the exercise yard, struggling to settle. As Luca has become familiar with the routine, his surroundings and the staff at Many Tears, his confidence has grown enormously. One of the biggest changes we've seen is his newfound love of toys. For the first couple of weeks, he showed no interest in them at all, but now he absolutely adores them! His favourite game is a good game of fetch in the big yard, where he happily charges after his ball with great enthusiasm. Like many large, playful dogs, Luca can occasionally become overexcited during play. He may jump up to catch the ball or become a little mouthy in his excitement, but this is never intended to cause harm. He is an incredibly gentle boy who simply gets carried away having fun. Because of his size and strength, we are helping him learn commands such as "sit", "wait" and "drop", as well as encouraging calmer play so he can enjoy himself without becoming overstimulated. This training will be important for his future adopters to continue, as an overexcited Luca could unintentionally knock over someone who is less steady on their feet. Although he loves chasing a ball, Luca's absolute favourite toys are cuddly toys! He delights in carrying them around and showing off his softer side, which perfectly sums up his character. Luca would be happiest as the only dog in the home, where he can enjoy all the attention, settle into a routine and build a strong bond with his new family. He will need adopters who have plenty of time to spend with him and who have experience of the breed or similar breeds. Luca cannot live with cats, small furries or small dogs. As Luca has spent most of his life outdoors, he will need to learn about house training and the other basics of home life. With patient guidance and consistency, we are sure he will adapt well and enjoy all the comforts that a family home has to offer. Luca already walks on a lead, although he can pull initially, so this is something his adopters will need to continue working on. He is an active, intelligent boy who would love a home where he can enjoy plenty of adventures, enrichment and quality time with his people. He is also a strong dog who can jump and even open gates, so he will need a very secure garden and confident handlers who can safely manage his strength. Luca is an affectionate, loyal and wonderfully characterful boy who simply wants to be part of the family. Now that he has settled and his playful personality has begun to shine, it has been a joy to watch him embrace life. In the right home, with structure, ongoing training and plenty of love, Luca will make an incredibly rewarding companion. Luca has had one tooth extracted at the time of his neuter. Luca has a travel document.
