Adopter Xando
German Shepherd · Mand · Ældre · 9 år
Xando blev fundet af politiet, som vandrede rundt med en mikrochip, tynd og med det kraftige huden omkring ansigtet i dårlig tilstand. Vi kunne kontakte ejeren, som bor i et bådhus og sagde, at han ikke ønsker at have hunden tilbage, så han har bare forladt sin gamle hund. Xando er en flot gammeldags tysk bittesoldat med relativt ret ryg, ingen hængende hofter og sortbrun langpuder. Hud omkring øjnene var skader fra at have været udsat for inflammation i en lang periode, men det har helet godt - bare puden vil ikke rigtig vokse tilbage omkring øjnene mere.... måske i et hjem.... Xando kan være lidt ældre, men er stadig aktiv og elsker at tage ud på eventyr med vores frivillige. Xando går meget godt i snor, og i afdelingen går han ofte sammen med nybegyndere og familier. Han har klart spillet meget med bold og elsker det, dog anbefaler vi at skifte boldspil ud med noget mere mildt for hans ældre knogler, lidt blød jord gravning, søgningsspil, gåtur i sand, svømning - disse aktiviteter vil være meget sundere for Xando. Han er flink til mennesker, elsker at blive berørt og kommer, når du kalder ham. Han er også madmotiveret, så det er god til træning for et liv sammen! Han er en meget, meget flink dreng, og lærer hurtigt, så han vil sikkert komme igang hurtigt med et nyt miljø! Han kører også rigtig godt i bilen, hvilket giver mening, da hans tidligere "menneske" boede i et bådhus. Xando tager snacks lidt for entusiastisk, og han er ganske energisk for sin alder, så vi anbefaler Xando til hjem uden småbørn, og helst uden andre hunde i øjeblikket, da vi ikke har prøvet ham med anden hund, dog kan en rolig, social kvinde overvejes og afdelingsholdet vil udføre testene. På ture passerer han andre hunde roligt, er mere interesseret i nogle end andre, men laver ingen skandale, især når han er væk fra afdelingen. Han elsker at tage på tur, og er en ekcelent kompanjon til hverdagen. Xando har rigtig god sundhed, så vidt vi kan se, og han er negativ på mediterrane sygdomme, inklusive Leishmania. Xandos skulderhøjde er omkring 65 cm.

Xando was found by the police wandering around, with a microchip, skinny and with the skin on his face in bad condition. We were able to get in touch with the registered owner, who apparently lives in a caravan and said he doesn't want the dog back anymore, so he just abandoned his old dog. Xando is a beautiful old-school German Shephard, with a relatively straight back, no hanging hips, and a black-brown long fur. The skin around his eyes was damaged from being left with inflammation over a long period of time, however that has healed well - just the fur won't really grow back around his eyes anymore.... maybe in a home.... Xando might be already older, but he is still active and loves to go for adventures with our volunteers. Xando walks very well on the leash, and in the shelter he often walks with beginner volunteers and families. He has clearly been playing a lot of fetch in his life and he definitely loves it, however we would recommend switching the fetching games for something more smooth for his aging bones, a bit of soft soil digging, searching games, walking in the sand, swimming - these activities will be much healthier for Xando. He is lovely with humans, likes to be touched, and comes when you call him. He is also food-motivated so that's great for training him for a life together! He is a very very clever boy, and learns really quickly, so he will surely get used to a new environment quickly! He also drives very well in the car, which makes sense, since his previous "human" was living in a caravan. Xando takes snacks a bit enthusiastically and his is quite high energy for his age, so we would recommend Xando to homes without small children, and preferably without other dogs at the moment as we have not tested him for co-living with other dogs, however a calm, social female could be considered and the shelter team would carry out the tests. On the walks he passes other dogs calmly, is more interested in some than others, but makes no drama, especially when he is away from the shelter. He loves to go on hikes, and is an excellent companion for everyday life. Xando is in very good health as far as we can tell, and he is tested negative on Mediterranean diseases, including Leishmania. Xando's shoulder height is about 65cm.
