Oswald urgently needs a forever home!
** 10 DAYS ON, A GOOD NEWS UPDATE – OSWALD is SETTLED in HIS PERFECT FOREVER HOME! **
See: https://pugwelfare-rescue.org.uk/oswald-already-in-his-forever-home/
Oswald is a 7.5 years old neutered, male pug who is looking for his forever home with humans who understand him.
Oswald is an anxious boy and hyper vigilant, so needs a home where his humans can comprehend and accommodate this little pug’s world.
We would like to find someone who is very calm and understanding with experience to know how to make this little man feel secure. The right person would need to show him behaviour boundaries and know how to work with those, and consistently carry them out.
Oswald is responsive to his foster parents’ commands most of the time, as with them he is in no uncertain terms confused as to who is in control. 😊
His foster mum tells us he is friendly with other dogs in the house, however if they are bossy with him he finds it hard to forgive and does not like to be around them. He has never shown aggression in this foster home only his form of anxiety.
Oswald would very much need a home away from traffic and too much noise as it can trigger his anxiety. A farm or smallholding or house in the country would be perfect for him.
He would prefer a home where he has company most of the time but he can be left for a couple of hours. He is good in the car and well behaved at the vets, and has shown no food aggression at all.
He is a very fit and active pug and loves long country walks where he can be off lead, obviously once there is that bond with his new human/s.
At home, he loves to sit with his people and chew is bones/antlers whilst they are nearby and would prefer to have no young children in residence and he loves a routine.
We feel Oswald would do well as an only dog or possibly with another placid dog, if the human has the experience needed as described above.
Oswald will make a wonderful companion once you understand his little issues, and has no known physical issues or medical needs, and is in very good shape.
If you feel you can offer a sensitive pug like Oswald or any other, a loving home like this, please apply here: https://pugwelfare-rescue.org.uk/adopting-a-pug/
