He is
about 7 yrs old and spent the first 5 yrs of his life in squalid
conditions with a number of other dogs.He was neglected in every way and spent most
of his time on the flat roof of a house with little or no
socialisation with people.He has been in the dog shelter for last two
years.He can now be patted and have a collar and
lead put on - he was previously too frightened of people.He will only go a few yards from his kennel
and then wants to run back in for safety.He needs an extremely patient and
understanding owner who will give him lots of time and love.
Eventually, we hope he will wag his tail
and that will be the greatest reward.

All our
dogs are prepared in conjunction with the Pets Travel Scheme and
have carried out their quarantine period in Greece.This means that
they are able to enter the UK
and go straight to their new homes.We do not home where all family
members are in full time employment and we also require a secure
garden with, in most circumstances, a surrounding 6ft fence. In most
cases we have video footage of the dogs and we are always happy to
show this during the home visit. If you think you would like to
adopt one of our dogs please call
