On Hold
About Timmy - No more applications please - On hold
TIMMY is now on hold pending his adoption. Thank you to ALL who applied for him...
Timmy came to SCRS as a timid fearful little doggie who was making poor choices due to lack of confidence, no prior training and no behavioural guidance.
As SCRS is run by a professionally qualified behavioural trainer, Timmy has under gone some positive changes in his life via special training which we would like to see continue in his new home.
He is now a different dog who is happy to play with well mannered smaller doggies, socialize with well mannered dogs of any size, seems disinterested in cats and loves to be cuddled gently. He doesnt "love" a bath but will cope if you encourage him in the right manner. He LOVES to go in the car and will peacefully sleep whilst you drive around.
He loves to be where you are but can cope well outside during the day providing he has good shelter and water with a few interactive things to do. He would cope with a small well mannered companion doggie as a friend but he will also cope being the only dog provided he is given lots of love, appropriate guidance/ongoing training and companionship.
To find out more about Timmy you would need to fill out a pre-adoption enquiry form (so we can find out a little more about you and what you are looking for); preferably be an adult family (NO children under 15 years old) or retired single/couple and a have quieter lifestyle to offer him. Having said that if you go away camping or holidaying with your pets he would love to be with you.
A handover training session is included in the adoption fee and ongoing training - for the humans is essential to develop the trust relationship and bond that he has formed here with SCRS trainer and to continue to build his confidence.

Medical notes
One hind leg very occasionally (now) pops out of place but Timmy kicks it back in again. There are no known ongoing issues noted at this point in time to worry about. Since being fed on a raw food diet he has gained weight and his body is much healthier and stronger. Continuing with a holistic diet is encouraged for Timmy's ongoing good health and excellent weight.
