Biarn - Foster or Adopt

Biarn is a beautiful 7-month-old boy who has a rough start, recently finding himself at risk of euthanasia in a rural pound. Biarn has been in foster care the past few days but is not getting along with the male dogs in the home, we are looking for a foster or foster to adopt home for Biarn. Biarn can be a little shy at first, however once he has realised that people can be kind, he has latched onto humans and is an affectionate sweetheart that just wants to be loved. Biarn adores his humans and is happiest when he is by their side. Biarn is a big puppy, and whilst he knows his basic commands, has perfected toilet training and is quickly learning leash manners, he can still show puppy-like behaviours such as jumping up and mouthing when he is overexcited or over-stimulated. Biarn is looking for a confident handler that will continue his training and put rules in place, he is entering his teenage era and will test boundaries. Biarn is best suited to a home where everyone is over the age of 12. Biarn was previously a very frightened pup that was wary of new people and environments; the pound staff and his foster home have done an incredible job of giving Biarn positive experiences, and he is already a different dog, however he could regress over the next few months as he matures and enters his next fear period. We are looking for someone with breed experience that will help Biarn become a confident adult dog, who will put in the work now and get on the front foot with his training and social skills. Biarn is motivated by both food and toys and enjoys working for treats, he is very clever and only has to be corrected or shown how to do something a few times before it clicks. Biarn would thrive with additional training, attending group obedience classes so that he can work on his socialisation and exposure in a controlled environment would be ideal for this boy. Biarn is unsure around other male dogs, he becomes very nervous and agitated in their presence, he is much more accepting of female dogs and has done well living with the older female shepherd in his foster home, even accepting corrections from her. Biarn is looking for a home where he can be the only dog, or with a large-breed older female dog. Biarn will need to work on his socialisation around other males overtime, he currently isn’t showing any reactivity out on walks. Biarn is not suited to a home with cats or other small pets, he has a strong prey drive and fixates on cats. This sweet boy has become the ultimate cuddle bug that just wants to be with his people and will do anything to be the centre of your world. Biarn has so much potential and in the right hands, will become a confident, loyal companion.
