Description

Bandit is a shy but loving boy seeking his forever home.

Bandit is a shy but loving boy seeking his forever home. He came into rescue due to a change in his owners circumstances. He is a more shy and timid natured boy until he gets to know you, but his confidence is growing daily. He is great with other dogs and would benefit from a home with another dog. He does walk well on the lead, but can get spooked at times, but some gentle reassurance and he walks again, this will continue to improve with time. He has been raised around kids, but given his shy nature a home with dog savy kids 8yrs and older would be best. He travels ok in the car, we use a crate and a cosy bed and he normally just lies down and has a nap. Bandit didn't live inside a home before, his owners had him in a kennel setup. So he will need some house training and patience's to help him settle into a new home. In rescue he is currently inside our home and I'm general is a very calm boy who spends most of his day relaxing on his bed. He will need a secure garden, and ideally someone home alot initially, but he would also be ok with another dog there instead, but you will have to allow for some potty accidents as he settles in and learns how to be house living.
