Introducing Jenson!!
Jenson has spent all of his young life living in a council shelter in Romania.
These shelters are extremely overcrowded and sadly, there are just not enough workers to spend 1-1 time with these dogs and so they slowly just disappear into the background as numbers.
We had a message asking if we'd help get him out and give him a chance at finding his own family and home, something that he has never experienced before.
We agreed to take him and when he arrived, he was extremely nervous of us, he kept his distance but we could see him watching when some of our current residents were coming over to us for fusses. He was very intrigued and he has slowly been approaching to see what these strokes and fusses are all about.
Jenson is still a young boy and has so much potential to be an amazing dog for someone that is willing to be patient with him and teach him that the world is not such a scary place.
Bio:
With other dogs:
Jenson really gets his confidence from other dogs. He's mixed with most of ours at the rescue and he has show to be playful & respectful, he will also listen to the other dogs body language amazingly. He will need a dog that is kind to him and that will show him the ropes. Jenson is super submissive and so a dog that would be snappy and / or not share their things with him, would be very worrying to him and could set him backwards.
With cats:
Jenson is new into the rescue and so we've not cat tested him as of yet.
Looking for:
Active energy
Jenson is just a young timid pup trying to gain some confidence. We've not yet seen his true personality but we belive he's going to be a dog with moderate to high energy levels once he's fully settled
2-4 hours
Jenson has never been in a home before so we don't know how he'll react with being left completely alone. This should be built up slowly over time.
With another dog for company, we believe Jenson could be fine for up to 4 hours
Lead trained
Jenson is still very timid and so we've not yet started lead training
Training required
Jenson doesn't yet have any kind of basic manners, he needs to gain confidence in himself and his people before any of this can be taught
