About Bubbles
Bubs is a total gentleman, sweet, affectionate, intelligent, loving, loves food, in fact, he is VERY food motivated so that will be the way to his heart for sure! He has good manners, sleeps quietly through the night, is toilet trained and enjoys learning new tricks.
Bubbles would like a human who will spend time walking him, training him and entertaining him. He enjoys car rides (preferably with his head over the human’s shoulder), sleeping at the feet of his human and Balls! He loves balls. He can fit three in his mouth at once and will happily carry them as he walks along or rides in the car.
He loves to spend time outside in the garden however he needs a house where he will be invited inside to be a part of the family.
Bubbles learns very quickly and responds well to consistency and encouraging cues. He is very responsive to training, super intelligent and will make a great canine partner for a person who suits him.
He is very excited when he sees other humans and dogs on his walks. He needs to be directed to carry on and distracted with chicken while he is forming trust and a solid bond with his handler. He is not a dog park dog. He needs a person who understands his introverted nature and will follow the BAT protocol of counter-conditioning to help him gain confidence around scary things and see that scary can equal chicken so that soon scary things are no longer scary, but indicators of imminent treats! He has been good with other dogs in the past but learnt how scary they can be in the pound and hasn’t quite regained his confidence yet. He is a dog who would be happy not being walked, but being entertained at home with games, treat-based training and food toys.
Bubbles hasn’t lived with young children, dogs or cats so we are seeking a home without them for him.
Bubbles is a real sweetie. He is handsome, travels well in the car, is obliging and keen to please his people.
He is a lovable boof, with a broad and pattable head and soulful eyes. He has a sad story and deserves a happy ending and to have all the comfort, bones and love he desires!

Medical notes
Bubbles is desexed, microchipped and up to date with vaccinations and parasite control.
Bubbles is a mature lad and has some arthritis in his hips. It isn’t slowing him down but it would be wise to moderate his exercise and jumping. He would do well to continue his monthly cartophen shots and have 4cyte supplements daily.
