Introducing Mr Sprinkles!! [Formally, and very briefly, known as Ramon]

Mr Sprinkles is another dog we recently took in from a UK pound down South as his euthanasia date was set and he literally had hours left to live.

We were told that he was completely shut down and hadn't left his kennel in the whole week that they'd had him.

They sent us a video with a lead on him and the workers trying get him out of his kennel, he looked paralysed in fear and he was going absolutely nowhere.

The look of sadness and fear that we saw in his eyes, we knew we had to help him and so before we knew it, he was on his way to us at Oakwood Dog Rescue.

He arrived completely overwhelmed by everything, he was very quiet, moved very slowly and we just let him do what he needed to do, there was no pressure from us.

Within 3 days, Mr Sprinkles had started forming bonds with the staff and became their abolute shadow. His goofy side was already coming out and he was showing us just what a silly and funny boy he is.

His personality had been completely suppressed for who knows how long, but gaining this boy's trust and watching him blossom is just the best thing to watch, we all love him so much and we can't wait for him to find his forever people that will take him home as part of their family and for him to never be passed around again. He is such a little Prince and deserves to be treated like one <3

With other dogs:

Due to just being castrated, we've not been able to dog mix Mr Sprinkles as of yet.

From walking past the other dogs in kennels, he is very avoidant of them and doesn't want any trouble however, when he's met dogs through the fence, he shows us very clearly that he is not comfortable in their presence.

With cats:

Mr Sprinkles is not yet cat tested.

Active energy

Mr Spinkles has moderate to high energy levels

Mr Sprinkles does not like to be left alone.
Any time alone in a home will have to be slowly built up over time. We currently have him on an anxiety supplement to help him settle as he does become destressed by himself and he has caused damage to one of our enrichement room doors panicking to get out because he just wanted to be with his people where he felt safe.
