About **Special Needs-Hubert**
Hubert is a special needs boy, looking for a foster to adopt home.
Hey there, my name is Hubert, and I am a very special boy looking for a very special home to call my own.
I have come from a traumatic background where I was physically abused. This has made me a very fearful dog when I meet someone new. However, there are a few special people that I love and trust, but I really need a permanent home to call my own. I also regularly take some medication to help me so I need someone that can keep up with my vet visits to monitor my progress.
I need a person or people willing to work with me and my trainer to help me learn how to feel safe in this big wide world. You don’t need any special skills, but you do need to be willing to make a commitment to me and have time and compassion to see things from my point of view.
I need a home with no other pets please. I have been working on meeting other dogs, but I am not quite up to living with another dog. I am a terrier mix and I love to chase cats, birds and other small pets so to keep them safe. I will need a home where I am the only pet.
I cannot live with children as I am fearful of them and I need a quiet environment. I may be suitable for a family with older children. When I am feeling overwhelmed and unsafe, I jump up a lot and mouth people. I do not mean any harm, but it can be scary for some people but please remember I am scared too.
I am still learning about the world and I become distressed when I am left home alone. I am so scared I do not eat or go to the toilet. If you work from home or are home most of the time, then that would be perfect for me.
So, I guess you are wondering what you will get from me if you let me into your home? You will get a funny scruffy little guy that snores in his sleep and loves to do zoomies in the backyard. I will adore you and follow you and I am always up for a game of tug with my favourite rope. When I feel safe, I am a bit of a clown, you will see my sense of humour and my affectionate side. My current foster carers adore me, but it is time for me to find my forever home.
I have come so far, and I still have long way to go. If you think you can stick by my side and help me grow in confidence, please send an email to scrufferlovers@gmail.com
