About Wiggles
Wiggles is a calm relaxed dog with people he knows and is social with other dogs. He is best suited to a single person household with few visitors and is much more comfortable around women. He can get very anxious if left alone or in a crate. He needs to be introduced carefully to visitors to the house and he can bite. He needs a very patient experienced groomer or he needs to be clipped under sedation. Wiggles is on some anti-seizure medication.
This is what his foster carer says: "He is not accepting anyone else at home. I have tried him with friends and he is just not friendly even people he knows like my neighbours. He is also not good for longer drives in a car as he gets anxious. Definitely not safe around kids as he bites and does not have filter. I do not give him any opportunity to bite as I keep distance from people. He is the sweetest dog ever to his person but unfortunately doesn't not trust other people. He needs a very quiet home as he is very sensitive to sounds. He is the most happy when there is peace, quiet and he is with his person and during walks in a dog park meeting other dogs. I avoid walking him on the street as much as I can as he is very reactive to anyone passing by. I am correcting him all the time but it is just his nature. Anyone walking him has to be alert at all times as he is not predictable."
He has a non-shedding coat and weighs about 7kg
Apartment Friendly: Could cope in an apartment environment. Regular walks or use of an artificial grass patch is suggested.
Adult Home: Nervous or not tolerant of children. And/or too high a level of excitability for children to control.

Adoption details
DoggieRescue is a charitable organisation and as such we rely very much on volunteers to manage our adoptions. We answer initial adoption enquiries by email or phone and then arrange an appointment for you to meet some of our rescue dogs.
At DoggieRescue we believe our dogs deserve to find that special someone who will love them and look after them forever. We know that there are homes out there that are willing to accommodate one more little member of the family and dedicate time to their well being.
