Adopter Reece
Cocker Spaniel · Hann · Ung · 1 år
Reece er en pen ung gutt som er i sin ungdomsfase, men han er en lys, kjærlig og veldig trenbar hund som har mye potensial til å bli en fantastisk følgesvenn.Vurderingen hans viste at han er en hyggelig, engasjerende gutt som kan danne relasjoner veldig raskt. Da den vurderte først ankom, bjeffet han på henne, men etter kort tid var han lykkelig i kontakt med henne og var overalt rundt henne. Selv om han kan trekke i snora og bjeffe på folk når han er ute, gjør han det mens han vifter med halen, og vi føler at dette er mye mer sannsynlig å være en defensiv/reaktiv respons enn aggresjon.Det er ingen historie om at Reece har bitt eller forsøkt å bite en person, og det er ingen kjent historie om at han har angrepet eller forsøkt å angripe et annet dyr.En hyggelig, lys guttReece er innendørs trent og reiser godt i bilen. Han kjenner noen grunnleggende kommandoer, inkludert sitte, stå og vente, og vurderingen hans viste hvor responsiv og trenbar han er.Han er veldig god til å håndtere og var glad for å ha alle deler av kroppen hans berørt, inkludert ørene og halen. Det var ingen problemer i det hele tatt med håndtering.Han er også veldig god å stelle og ser ut til å virkelig nyte det.Reece viste ingen problemer rundt mat. Han var glad i å bytte ut godbiter, ha godbiter forsiktig tatt bort, bli klappet mens han spiste og ha mat dekket og fjernet. Han hadde heller ingen problemer når et leketøy ble fjernet.Alt dette gir oss et veldig positivt bilde av en ung hund som er responsiv, lys og villig til å lære.Ut på turerReece er en energisk ung hund og kan trekke i snora. Han kan også bjeffe på folk når han er ute og er reaktiv mot andre hunder. Imidlertid er kroppsspråket hans viktig. Han vifter med halen mens han reagerer, og etter å ha vurdert alt vi har sett, føler vi at oppførselen hans er mer i samsvar med usikkerhet og defensivitet enn aggresjon.Han hadde ingen problemer med trafikkstøy under vurderingen.Hans tilbakekall har ikke blitt testet tilstrekkelig til å bli vurdert klar for fri løp i travle eller ukjente områder, så dette bør jobbes med med sin nye familie.FolkReece kan være forsiktig med noen mennesker i begynnelsen og kan bjeffe når noen ukjente kommer. Imidlertid viste vurderingen at han kan roe seg ned og bygge tillit veldig raskt.Når han har hatt muligheten til å bli kjent med noen, er han en kjærlig og engasjert gutt.Vi føler at et kvinnelig hjem ville være å foretrekke for Reece, noe som gir ham muligheten til å bosette seg i et rolig og forutsigbart miljø der han kan fortsette å bygge selvtillit.Andre hunderReece har hatt noen konflikter og spenninger med den andre hunden i sitt nåværende hjem og kan være beskyttende for leker og ressurser rundt andre hunder.Han er også reaktiv mot andre hunder når han er ute.Det sier seg selv at dette ikke nødvendigvis betyr at han aldri kan leve med en annen hund. Den vurderende mente at en passende kvinnelig hund kunne være en god følgesvenn for ham, forutsatt at introduksjonene ble håndtert riktig og at hundene ble vurdert som en god match.Dette vil derfor bli vurdert på en individuell basis.Trening og bosettingReece er ikke trent i bånd og er ikke vant til å bruke et bånd.Han kan bli engstelig og vokal når han er skilt, så hans nye familie må være forberedt på å jobbe med dette gradvis og positivt.Han er også ekstremt opphisset når det kommer besøk og kan hoppe opp når han er spent. Fortsatt trening og konsekvente grenser vil hjelpe ham til å lære mer passende måter å hilse på folk.Hva slags hjem ville passe Reece?Vi føler at Reece ville passe best til:Et kvinnelig hjemEt rolig og relativt forutsigbart miljøEiere som er forberedt på å fortsette treningen sinNoen som forstår unge hunder og hundens reaktivitetNoen som kan hjelpe ham med å bygge selvtillit og lære passende responser når han er usikkerEn familie som kan gi mye mosjon, mental stimulering og positiv interaksjonNoen

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.
