About Storm
Meet Storm. Approx. 3 years old, male, desexed, maltese x. Approx. 10 kilos.
Storm was initially surrendered to us as he has significant separation anxiety/barking when left alone. However, he recently returned to care after discovering that he can also be protective of the person in the household he chooses as 'his person'.
So, knowing this information and what has since worked very well back in foster care we haven’t seen this protective behaviour we are now looking for a very specific household :
*Preferably (but not set in stone), a single person & generally quiet household
*Someone home most of the time
*No children, or regular children visitors
*All household members enjoy dog walking, even if its not together
*A household experienced and comfortable with using crates to help settle a dog and give him space
*someone special and EXPERIENCED with anxiety barking.
*A household who can set boundaries, correct as needed, to help Storm realise his humans have it under control so he doesn't have to
*secure fencing
Storm has so many positive attributes - he is affectionate, he is fantastic with others dogs, and is very well socialised. He is a dream on lead and off (where it is safe to be off) even though he has no 'formal' recall as yet, BUT will want to say hello to any dog he sees if allowed.
He is crate trained and his new household would need to commit to this in the short to medium term (esp. if more than one person in the household) . He is nearly (but not quite 100%) toilet trained inside. He will need ongoing training as part of his outings.
Ideally we would like him to remain fairly local but will consider anyone who may sound like the perfect fit for this special boy.
If you are not home most of the time (after COVID), have young children or a busy household he is not the one for you and we wish you luck in your search.
If you applied for Storm previously, please do not reapply unless you can address the profile above, and thank you for your interest.
