Introducing.. handsome Aneglo!

Angelo's Story:

Angelo is just 10 months old and has spent his short life growing up in a shelter in Romania and at Oakwood Dog Rescue, he has never before lived in a home :(

Several months ago, we had a plea from a volunteer rescuer in Romania stating that there were 13 extremely vulnerable puppies in the shelter that were going to struggle to make it through their harsh winter with minimal shelter and minimal food. We agreed to take the 2 most vulnerable which was Angelo and his very skinny friend Lewis [who has now been adopted].

As Angelo has never lived in a home before and so will require time, patience, understanding and lots of positive based training to help him learn the ropes of home life.

Bio:

With other dogs:

Angelo does enjoy playing with other dogs but unfortunately has some guarding traits that have started to escalate. He will guard food, toys, bedding, anything he doesn't want the other dog near and he will chase them off aggressively / start a fight. For this reason, we can not allow Angelo to live in a home with a resident dog. He could have dog friends though for play dates / walks.

With cats:

Angelo is untested with cats but from his behaviour with other dogs, we are not looking to cat test him

Active energy

Angelo is showing to have moderate energy levels but this could increase once he is settled in a home

0 -2 hrs to start

Angelo has spent his entire life being surrounded by other dogs and so has never been left alone, completely by himself. He will need a home where someone is around for most of the day and that can slowly build up his alone time to prevent creating separation anxiety and to show him that it is ok to be alone sometimes
