Albert will benefit from a home where someone is around the majority of the time. He is quite puppy like in a lot of ways and will also need to attend training/socialisation classes.
Albert is currently undergoing a 14 day assessment and will be ready for rehoming from 20th December. Applications are welcome during the assessment period and rehoming over the Christmas period will be at the discretion of the trustees.
Please put in an application in the first instance if you are interested in Albert. Approved applications will be home checked.
Details of our adoption procedures/requirements, adoption application form and Privacy Policy are here http://forum.fourpawsanimalrescue.org.uk/index.php/board,21.0.html
This is what his foster mum says about him:
Albert (Bertie Bear) is a delightful, active, goofy boy who wants to be loved but doesn't quite know how. He is full of energy and is quite excitable but calms quickly when ignored. He is quite a tall boy, and probably aged 1-2. He still displays a lot of puppyish behaviour, including some mouthing which we are working hard to address. He is incredibly intelligent. He's the only dog i know that can open cupboard doors and help himself to what's inside! I feel he would do well with a mental challenge-maybe flyball or agility?
He is a bit reluctant to get in the car, but is learning now that nice things happen when you travel. He loves the beach and the woods. He travels very well once in. He walks well on a lead, and will need regular exercise. He can be a bit boisterous when greeting other dogs. Recall is a work in progress because he's only just learned his name!
He sleeps quietly all night (once we learned to secure the cupboard doors!!!) on a cushion. He wasn't keen on a crate but could be trained if necessary. He is now clean and dry in the house, including at night. He is developing some lovely manners.
He eats well (dry food with a bit of chicken or tuna at the moment, cos he's a bit skinny but pretty sure he's not fussy)
He's a really scrumptious boy that is looking for a very special forever home

I'm lucky enough to be Alberts foster mum. He is such a gorgeous boy. He's so very handsome that people actually stop and stare at him! It seems like he has had some training. He can do sit, stay, wait, down and give a paw. I'm sure there's lots more we haven't discovered yet! He is really starting to relax and show his playful nature. He's been with us everywhere we've been over Christmas and has behaved impeccably wherever we've been. He really will make a lovely forever friend
