Mister

Meet Mister! – 3-Year-Old Mini Foxie x Tenterfield Terrier

Mister is a lovely 3-year-old Mini Foxie / Tenterfield Terrier who is still finding his feet and adjusting to life in care. While there is limited information available about his previous home life, he is showing that he has the potential to form lovely bonds with people and continue growing in confidence in the right environment.

With people he knows and trusts, Mister can be quite affectionate and enjoys seeking attention. He may approach familiar people, paw for interaction or happily sit on a lap. 

Mister would benefit from patient, understanding adopters who are happy to let him build trust at his own pace and who can recognise and respect his communication.

Mister walks well on lead overall. He may initially hesitate when leaving his kennel and appreciate a little gentle verbal encouragement, but once he gets going, he relaxes and enjoys exploring his surroundings.

He is a curious little explorer who loves stopping to sniff and investigate the environment. He toilets appropriately while out walking and has shown lovely engagement with his handler.

Mister is looking for an adult-only home with a calm, predictable environment. He would be best suited to adults who are patient, understanding and willing to give him the time and space he needs to feel comfortable.

Indoor and outdoor access is recommended so Mister can choose where he feels most comfortable while adjusting to his new surroundings.

A consistent routine, gentle handling and positive reinforcement will help him develop confidence and feel secure. His ability to cope when left alone is currently considered a relatively low concern, although a gradual transition into his new home will be beneficial.

If you have a quiet adult household and the patience to help a little dog find his confidence, Mister could be the special companion you've been looking for!!!
