Name: BERTIE
Age: 2 yrs
Breed: Parsons type jrt

Fostered In: Rhondda Valley
Other Information:
"Bertie is a very fearful little man. He needs a quiet home without lots of comings and goings and with no children or teenagers as he finds them too scary. He finds new people generally quite scarey and he needs to learn to trust people in his own time and to have good associations with people built so he can learn there is nothing to fear and therefore no need to run and hide or to bark at them.
His new home ideally needs to be away from main traffic or with someone who has another dog and can drive them too and from quiet places to walk, at least in the ealy stages as he finds traffic and busy places scary as well. He is also quite scared of traveling, however traveling with other dogs he knows he is much better.
He ideally needs someone who understands about fearful dogs and will not push him or put him in siutations where he might react wherever possible. Someone who will give him time to de-stress and adjust to a move which will be stressful for him, and really not push him too much or ask much of him straight away.
Once he has settled and gets used to his surroundings he will need someone who will be prepared to introduce things and start working on his fears very slowly and making good associations with the things that worry him. He is a very bright and loving boy once he trusts you and will return the work put in tenfold. He is the kind of doggie that will make his owner the centre of his world.
He does love the company of resident dogs and ideally a home with another dog would be great for him as he gets a lot from them and another confident dog. He is happy to share his toys with other dogs and shows no food aggression. He can be reactive towards other dogs while out on a lead.
He is a very sweet little man that loves being in the company of his owner. As is typical of stressy and fearful little dogs, when he bonds he bonds very strongly and can then find being left a little stressful to start with, though again when he settles and feels safe this can be built up without problems.
This little lad just needs a chance to have his own person to love him and show him that the worlkd isn't such a scary place after all"
