Elmo

Elmo, enzo and emma were a small litter of dane/lab/kelpie cross which were surrendered to happypaws haven at the middle of last year. The mother got out and fell pregnant while the owners were away. They are lovely natured pups who get on with other pups, a bit timid with adult dogs but love people and cuddles. They are well adjusted normal healthy playful mischievous pups looking for a loving home. They will grow to be medium to large dogs going by the size of their paws. All three got homes and all was well for sometime. We have a policy that we will take the dogs back should circumstances change. Not long ago we received a call from elmo’s owner saying that they were not able to take care of him anymore as work requirements had changed and he was not getting the walks and attention elmo needed. Elmo has not been to training, he has not given him consistent rules and boundaries nor given him consistent leadership this causes confusion as it does in all children and they do not know what is expected of them. Since he has been back he has been a delight to have, he is gentle with children, does not jump up, only barks when someone comes, he gets on with the other dogs, occasionally can be a little apprehensive rather than timid and like all big dogs he is a gentle giant with a lovely nature, he does not have a mean bone in his body. He is a big boy weighing in at over 30kgs. He is very human centric and wants to be a part of what is ever happening. He may become possessive of his human in regards to other dogs on his territory. He is fine here and plays well in his pack
