Adopter Rupert
Labrador Retriever · Mand · Voksen · 8 år
Rupert er en stor guldretter ældre omkring otte år. Rupert er kommet til vores omsorg for nylig fra Botosani offentlige dyrehospital i Rumænien. Han har været der i en periode sammen med sine tre voksne sønner, som stadig er der. Rupert er en bestemt gammel gejse, som sandsynligvis har levet et ret flygtigt liv inden for dyrehospitalet, vant til at gå, hvor og når han vil. Han fandt ledetræning ret udfordrende og har kun nu (på det meste) accepteret, at han skal gå, hvor menneskerne leder ham nu. Dog går han kun på korte ture for tiden, fordi når han beslutter, at han er træt og det er tid til at lægge sig, er der ikke meget, man kan gøre for at overbevise ham om noget andet. Ved ankomst til sin britiske fostermor boede han første halvanden dag simpelthen og prøvede alle grænser for at se, om der var en vej ud, og når han bliver sat i nye situationer gentager dette habitudes. Kun når han har beviset for sig selv, at han ikke er super hund og ikke kan hoppe over fem fod hæk med sine ældende ben, vil han give et stort suk og sætte sig ind i en mønster, hvor han næsten hele dagen sover. Han er tilfreds med sit lot, men må først se, om der er bedre på den anden side af hekken. Det er ikke en proces, der varer længe, men det ser ud til at være en ritual, der kan forventes, når han flytter. Rupert bor gladeligt sammen med andre hunde, men er ganske uvidende om dem. Han ville være lige så glad som den eneste hund og har levet gladeligt sammen med katten og deler endda sine behandlinger med ham. Selvom han ligner en blød, undergående gammel labrador, er han ikke i øjeblikket på jagt efter omsorg eller apprøver det, selvom han tillader det og virker hverken bekymret eller bange for det. Jeg gætter på, hvis han har levet det meste af sit liv uden elsk og venlighed fra mennesker, er begrebet om en klem stadig en misterning for ham. Han vil sandsynligvis ikke ligge lojal ved dine fødder eller bringe dig dine slippers snart, men med tiden og nok behandling, ved vi ikke? Rupert vil have et voksenfamilie-miljø uden for meget aktivitet for hans pensionstid. Rupert blev fosteret af Norwich Norfolk. Hvis du er interesseret, skriv eller ringer mellem 9:00-17:00 mandag-fredag eller 9:00-16:00 lørdag. Adoption Donationsgebyrer fra 1. december 2025 er Puppies allerede kastrerede og alle voksne hunde: £430. Ukastrerede puppies på kastrationsskjemaer: £530 (du får en rabat på £100, når du sender os bevis for kastration). Ældre hunde (10+ år): £150–£250 (afhængigt af alder og individuelle behov). Adoptionspolitik Når du adopterer en Safe Rescue hund, skal du bruge en slip-lead. Dette vil holde din hund sikker: din nye hund vil være nervøs og ikke stole på dig, og du vil ikke vide, hvilke situationer, der måske vil irrite din hund. Hvis din hund panikerer, så er en slip-lead den eneste måde at forhindre din hund i at flække (mange hunde kan flække fra et halsbånd og/eller sadel). Det vil tage AT LEAST 3-6 måneder for din hund at sætte sig ind og for dig at vide din hund fuldt ud (længere for nervøse hunde). Slip-lead skal ALDRIG bruges under denne indpassningsperiode. Endda efter, at din hund er indpasset, er det mest sikert at bruge slip-lead i situationer, hvor din hund kan blive bange (fx besøg nye steder, omkring ukendte folk, hos dyrlægen), og i situationer, hvor usædvanlige trigger kan opstå (fx omkring bonfire night). Nervøse hunde kan altid behøve at bære en slip-lead som en sikkerhedsmæssig reservation. Slip-lead er en sikkerhedstilpasning og MÅ ALDRIG bruges som træningsværktøj. At bruge leden til at anvende tryk på hundens hals er skadeligt. Hvis din hund trækker i leden, så kan vi råde dig til træningsmetoder, der undgår skade. Når din hund er indpasset, kan du overveje at bruge en sadel (tillsammen med slip-lead), hvis din hund er komfortabel med at blive håndteret, når den er påsat. De fleste sadler er ikke flygtensikre, men sadler med en bånd bag ribben (fx Ruffwear Webmaster eller Perfect Fit Harnesses) er mere sikre. Retractable / udvidelige led kan aldrig bruges på vores hunde. Adopterede hunde skal hentes fra dyrehospitalet og transporteres direkte hjem i en kasse. Hejre og døre skal være minimum 5 fod og sikre. Alle hunde er vaccinerede, mikrochippede og kastrerede (undtagen hunde, der er for unge til at blive kastrerede).

Rupert is a large golden labrador aged around eight years old. Rupert has come into our care recently from the Botosani public shelter in Romania. He had been in there for some time along with his three adult sons who are still there. Rupert is a determined old goat who has probably led a pretty transient life prior to the shelter, used to going as and where he pleases. He found lead training rather a trial and has only now (mostly) accepted that he has to go where the humans direct now. However he is only going on short walks currently because when he decides he is tired and it’s time to lie down there’s not an awful lot that can be done to persuade him otherwise . On arrival in his UK foster home he spent the first half day just testing all boundaries to see if there was a way out, when placed in new situations this is a habit that he repeats. Only when he has proven to himself that he is not super dog and cannot jump five foot fences with his aging bones will he give a big sigh and settle into a pattern of pretty much snoozing most of the day. He is content with his lot but has to just see first if there’s better on the other side of that fence. It’s not a process that lasts long but seems to be a ritual that can be expected when he’s moved. Rupert is living happily with other dogs but is quite oblivious to them. He’d be just as happy as the only dog and has been cohabiting happily with the cat and even shares his treats with him. Despite giving the appearance of a soppy, docile old lab Rupert is not currently approaching for fuss or appreciative of it, although he will allow it and seems neither distressed or scared by it. I guess if he’s lived this far in his life without the love and kindness of humans the concept of a cuddle is still an enigma to him. He certainly won’t be lying devotedly by your feet or bringing you your slippers anytime soon, but in time and with enough treat bribery who knows?!? Rupert would like an adult family environment without too much activity for his retirement years. Rupert fostered Norwich Norfolk. If you are interested please message or call between 9am to 5pm Mon – Fri or 9am to 4pm Sat. . Adoption Donation Fees From 1st Dec 2025 are Puppies already neutered and all adult dogs: £430. Un-neutered puppies on spay/neuter contracts: £530 (You will receive a £100 rebate once you send us proof of neutering). Senior dogs (10+ years): £150–£250 (depending on age and individual needs). Adoption Policy When you adopt a Safe Rescue dog, you MUST use a slip lead. This will keep your dog safe: your new dog will be nervous and will not trust you, and you will not know which situations might upset your dog. If your dog panics, then a slip lead is the only way to prevent your dog from escaping (many dogs can escape from a collar and/or harness). It will take AT LEAST 3-6 months for your dog to settle-in and for you to know your dog fully (longer for nervous dogs). The slip lead must ALWAYS be used during this settling-in period. Even after your dog is settled, it is safest to use the slip lead in situations where your dog may become scared (e.g. visiting new places, around unfamiliar people, at the vet), and it situations where unexpected triggers might happen (e.g. around bonfire night). Nervous dogs may always need to wear a slip-lead as a back-up safety measure. The slip lead is a safety device and must NEVER be used as a training tool. Using the lead to apply pressure to the dog’s neck is damaging. If your dog pulls on the lead, then we can advise you on training methods that avoid harm. Once your dog is settled, you may want to consider using a harness (together with the slip lead) if your dog is comfortable with being handled when it is fitted. Most harnesses are not escape-proof, but harnesses with a strap behind the ribcage (e.g. Ruffwear Webmaster or Perfect Fit Harnesses) are safer. Retractable / extendable leads must never be used on our dogs. Adopted dogs must be collected from the rescue and transported straight home in a crate. Fences and gates must be 5ft min & secure. All dogs are vaccinated, microchipped and neutered (unless the dog is too young to be neutered). Rupert is a large golden labrador aged around eight years old.
