About Aytan
This little dog is definitely a 'people' dog. He just loves to be with his human friends and sit up on your lap for a cuddle. Due to Aytan having a few fearful behaviours that need to be worked on, we would recommend he goes to a no children home or with children at least 12YO and above.
Aytan is very gentle and patient. He will sit when asked and wait patiently for his dinner.
Toys are a must! Aytan loves to race around the house with a ball or teddy in his mouth. Sometimes you may find things in his mouth that aren't toys - such as socks, but he will always gives them up easily without getting protective of the item.
Aytan is fine to be left at home with a family that works, however a secure yard is a must. He escaped his first foster home by digging a gap under a fence.
Needs to be a no cat home as he will consistently bark at them.
Aytan was adopted from SAFE a few months ago but unfortunately has been relinquished back into our care due to some issues that arose in his new home.
Aytan has always been a little bit weary. He often will look nervous and sometimes cower when new people attempt to pat him, but within no time at all he would grab a ball and bring it over to his new friend. However, being adopted to a home with just a single lady he has become very attached to her. Unfortunately this means he has also become very protective - getting quite standoff-ish to people that come to her home.
When walking on a lead, he can occasionally pull the lead and lunge while barking at other dogs walking past. This does not happen when he is off lead, so it seems that this behaviour is caused by being on the lead and should be able to be addressed with the correct training.
He can sometimes get a bit funny with other dogs at the park and chase them barking. However, Aytan did spend alot of time in a foster home with 4 other dogs who he bonded with fine. We believe with an owner who is dedicated to working with him and correcting his behaviours this little man will settle in and make a wonderful pet. He would suit a home with a confident dog friend.
If this lovable little boy sounds like the perfect addition to your family, please fill out the below form with as much detail as possible. An application with photos is also much more likely to be considered. Pictures of your yard, home, other pets or family members would be great.
