About Stanley Skarsgard is checking out his new home!
Stanley Skarsgard is a very reluctant surrender. A real sweetheart that just loves you, with eyes that just melt your heart. He has lived with a smaller dog and had training when he was younger. He does have some separation anxiety so does appreciate company. He has never been exposed to cats.
He is a happy go lucky boy who loves snoozing on the couch and will burrow under the covers for extra comfort. He love a good butt scratch and walks very well on lead.
Stanley soaks up his environment. If those around him are calm and relaxed so is he. When he is in a noisy excitable group he acts accordingly. He absolutely loves his ball and fetch. He has been known to squeeze three balls into his mouth rather than let one go!! His obedience was great when he was younger and allowed off leash but he could do with some refreshers in this area.
The same applies to his friendships with dogs. He enjoys laidback dogs but not those that get in his face. He likes to play on his terms and will tell an annoying dog politely to back off.
Stanley will flourish in the right home with the love and humans he needs to make his life complete.

Adoption details
We are a community fostercare network, not a shelter, and our dogs and cats are cared for in private homes. Note that we are very careful where we rehome our dogs and cats and we have an intensive process. If you want a quick turnaround we are not the group for you. If you seem like a good match for the dog of your choice we will organise a telephone chat, a meet and greet and a property check. We offer a six-week full refund, free assistance for six weeks for any issues, and a lifetime takeback policy with a fifty percent refund of the adoption fee, and of course an invitation to our adopters’ Christmas party.
We care for our dogs and cats and we want you to as well. We know that genuine applicants have no trouble with this process and understand that if we refuse you a dog or cat, it is because you are not the best match for that pet.
Our commitment to the dogs and cats in our care is total and we treat each one as if we are passing on a family pet. This may not suit you so we point out that there are equally great dogs and cats available in pounds, shelters and with other rescue groups.
