About Achilles
Achilles is a clever dog but with insufficient training so he can be a boof head.
He has displayed aggression towards strangers so he needs a stable home with a firm control who is willing to be patient and work with him over the long term.
Achilles needs a secure home, a lot of patience and no other animals or children in the house.
He doesn't like being left alone, has separation anxiety and he gets spooked by new people easily.
Sadly he was not well treated in his first home and has almost been put to sleep twice because people have misunderstood him and of course being a German Sheperd people have preconceived fears.
He has never hurt anyone or any animal but he scares them when he moves quickly.
He is so eager to love and be a part of a family. He bonded quickly to his last foster parents but they don't have the resources or time to bring out his true potential.
If you think you can help Achilles reach that goal, we would like to hear from you.
Medical notes
Has been assessed by trainers as having a serious problem around aggression towards strangers. Will take a serious commitment to help him through.
Adoption details
All animals are adopted, never sold, and an adoption contract is required in each case.
We generally bring the animal(s) to you and reserve the right the inspect the housing and garden at this time. That marks the beginning of a 30 day trial adoption period.
We are committed to supporting you throughout the life of the animal you adopt, so we are here for advice or assistance where possible. We want you and your new family member to have a long happy life together so we will do what we can to ensure this.
As a guide, the following terms appear in the chicken adoption form that is required to be signed to complete the adoption. Slightly different adoption forms exist for different species but the overall principles remain the same.
1. A minimum of 3 chickens must be adopted unless you have a flock of your own already.
2. The chickens are NEVER to be killed no matter how old they get or if they stop laying eggs - which one day they will do - except for the case of humane euthanasia when all other alternatives have been exhausted.
3. If medical attention is required you commit to taking them to a good vet without delay and without concern for the cost of their treatment.
4. You do not use these chickens to make a profit.
5. You give these ladies the love they deserve. They have come from hell and are entitled to the best you can give them.
6. If the adoption is unsuitable for any reason at any time in the future you will return them to the carer rather than selling them or killing them.
7. They are never to be eaten.
8. Chickens must have a suitable garden area to roam and explore.
9. You must maintain adequate fox-proof housing.
