Adopter Reece
Cocker Spaniel · Mand · Ung · 1 år
En ung, flot hund som er i sin ungdomsfase, men som er en intelligent, hengiven og meget træningsbar hund med stort potentiale til at blive en vidunderlig følgesvend.Hans vurdering viste ham at være en dejlig, engageret dreng, der hurtigt kan danne relationer. Da vurdereren først ankom, gøede han på hende, men inden for kort tid var han lykkeligt i kontakt med hende og var overalt på hende. Selv om han kan trække i snoren og gøe på mennesker, når han er ude, gør han det, mens han vifter med halen, og vi mener, at dette er meget mere sandsynligt at være en defensiv/reaktiv reaktion end aggression.Der er ingen historie om Reece der har bidt eller forsøgt at bide en person, og ingen kendt historie om ham, der angriber eller forsøger at angribe et andet dyr.En dejlig, intelligent drengReece er huseskolet og kører godt i bilen. Han kender nogle grundlæggende kommandoer, herunder sidde, stå og vente, og hans vurdering viste, hvor lydig og træningsbar han er.Han er meget god til håndtering og var glad for at have alle dele af hans krop rørt, herunder ører og hale. Der var ingen problemer overhovedet med håndtering.Han er også meget god til at blive plejet og ser ud til virkelig at nyde det.Reece viste ingen problemer med mad. Han var glad for at bytte godbidder, have godbidder forsigtigt taget væk, blive strøg, mens han spiste, og have mad dækket og fjernet. Han havde heller ingen problemer, da et legetøj blev fjernet.Alt dette giver os et meget positivt billede af en ung hund, der er lydig, intelligent og villig til at lære.Ude på gåtureReece er en energisk ung hund og kan trække i snoren. Han kan også gøe på mennesker, når han er ude, og er reaktiv over for andre hunde.Men hans kropssprog er vigtigt. Han vifter med halen, mens han reagerer, og efter at have taget alt, hvad vi har set i betragtning, mener vi, at hans opførsel er mere i overensstemmelse med usikkerhed og defensivitet end aggression.Han havde ingen problemer med trafikstøj under sin vurdering.Hans tilbagekald er ikke blevet testet tilstrækkeligt til at betragte ham klar til fri bevægelighed i travle eller ukendte områder, så dette skal arbejdes på med hans nye familie.MenneskerReece kan være forsigtig med nogle mennesker i starten og kan gø, når en ukendt person ankommer. Men hans vurdering viste, at han hurtigt kan falde til ro og opbygge tillid.Når han har haft lejlighed til at lære nogen at kende, er han en kærlig og engageret dreng.Vi mener, at en hundevenlig familie ville være at foretrække for Reece, hvilket giver ham mulighed for at falde til ro i en rolig og forudsigelig omgivelser, hvor han kan fortsætte med at opbygge sin selvtillid.Andre hundeReece har haft nogle konflikter og spændinger med den anden hund i hans nuværende husstand og kan være beskyttende over for legetøj og ressourcer omkring andre hunde.Han er også reaktiv over for andre hunde, når han er ude.Selv om vi ikke mener, at dette nødvendigvis betyder, at han aldrig kan leve med en anden hund, mener hans vurderer, at en passende tævehund kunne være en god følgesvend for ham, forudsat at introduktionerne blev håndteret korrekt, og hundene blev betragtet som en god match.Dette vil derfor blive overvejet fra sag til sag.Træning og tilpasningReece er ikke trænet i at være i en kurv og er ikke vant til at bruge en kurv.Han kan blive ængstelig og højlydt, når han er adskilt, så hans nye familie bliver nødt til at være forberedt på at arbejde på dette gradvist og positivt.Han er også meget ophidset, når besøgende ankommer, og kan springe op, når han er ophidset. Fortsat træning og konsekvente grænser vil hjælpe ham med at lære mere passende måder at hilse på mennesker.Hvilken slags hjem ville passe til Reece?Vi mener, at Reece ville passe bedst til:Et hundevenligt hjemEt roligt og relativt forudsigeligt miljøEjere, der er villige til

Reece is a handsome young boy who is going through his adolescent stage, but he is a bright, affectionate and very trainable dog who has lots of potential to make a wonderful companion.His assessment showed him to be a lovely, engaging boy who can form relationships very quickly. When the assessor first arrived, he barked at her, but within a short time he was happily interacting with her and was all over her. Although he can pull on the lead and bark at people when out, he does so while wagging his tail, and we feel this is much more likely to be a defensive/reactive response rather than aggression.There is no history of Reece biting or attempting to bite a person, and no known history of him attacking or attempting to attack another animal.A lovely, bright boyReece is housetrained and travels well in the car. He knows some basic commands including sit, stay and wait, and his assessment showed just how responsive and trainable he is.He is very good with handling and was happy to have all areas of his body touched, including his ears and tail. There were no issues at all with handling.He is also very good to groom and appears to really enjoy it.Reece showed no problems around food. He was happy to exchange treats, have treats gently taken away, be stroked while eating and have food covered and removed. He also had no problem when a toy was removed.All of this gives us a very positive picture of a young dog who is responsive, bright and willing to learn.Out on walksReece is an energetic young dog and can pull on the lead. He can also bark at people when out and is reactive towards other dogs.However, his body language is important. He wags his tail while reacting and, taking everything we have seen into consideration, we feel his behaviour is more consistent with uncertainty and defensiveness than aggression.He had no issues with traffic noise during his assessment.His recall has not been sufficiently tested to consider him ready for off-lead freedom in busy or unfamiliar areas, so this should be worked on with his new family.PeopleReece may initially be wary of some people and can bark when someone unfamiliar arrives. However, his assessment demonstrated that he can settle and build trust very quickly.Once he has had the opportunity to get to know someone, he is an affectionate and engaging boy.We feel a female-only home would be preferable for Reece, giving him the opportunity to settle into a calm and predictable environment where he can continue to build his confidence.Other dogsReece has experienced some conflict and tension with the other dog in his current household and can be protective of toys and resources around other dogs.He is also reactive towards other dogs when out.That said, we don’t feel this necessarily means he could never live with another dog. His assessor felt that a suitable female dog could potentially be a good companion for him, provided introductions were handled correctly and the dogs were considered a good match.This would therefore be considered on an individual basis.Training and settlingReece is not crate trained and is not accustomed to using a crate.He can become anxious and vocal when separated, so his new family will need to be prepared to work on this gradually and positively.He is also extremely excitable when visitors arrive and may jump up when excited. Continued training and consistent boundaries will help him learn more appropriate ways of greeting people.What sort of home would suit Reece?We feel Reece would be best suited to:A female-only homeA calm and relatively predictable environmentOwners who are prepared to continue his trainingSomeone who understands young dogs and canine reactivitySomeone who can help him build confidence and learn appropriate responses when he is unsureA family who can provide plenty of exercise, mental stimulation and positive interactionSomeone prepared to work patiently on his lead walking and reactions to other dogsA home where his separation difficulties can be worked on graduallyA suitable female canine companion may be considered, subject to the usual introductions and assessment.Reece is not considered cat-friendly.Reece is ready for his next chapter Reece has now completed his assessment and is ready to find his new home.He is a young dog with lots of energy and enthusiasm, but underneath the excitement is a very affectionate, clever and loving boy. His assessment showed that he is extremely responsive to people and very willing to learn.We believe that with the right person to guide him, Reece has every opportunity to flourish.He is available for foster, adoption, or foster with a view to adoption, depending on what is considered the best option for him and his new family.We are looking for someone who will see the lovely dog behind the barking and adolescent exuberance and who is prepared to give Reece the time, consistency and positive training he needs.Reece is a very loved boy who clearly loves his family very much, and we want to make sure that his next home is the right one for him. ❤️Please note that the information above is based on Reece’s assessment and the information provided by his current family. As with any rehoming, we will discuss his individual needs with prospective adopters/fosters to ensure the best possible match.
