Beautiful big dog, 4 years old, looking for loving family home
This is Boots, she is a black Mastiff/Labrador cross breed. Boots is an amazing family pet whose temperament around people, including children, is perfect. She has never as much as snarled an either of my two young daughters in the three years we have had her, and my children see her as a Pony as much as they see her as a Dog. She is a loyal, happy, silly animal, and a bigger soft lump you'll struggle to find anywhere. I am rehoming Boots as, now that my children are only around on weekends, she is missing out on more regular contact with people as I am not able to pay her as much attention as she deserves during the week. She needs a happy family home in which to thrive with lots of hustle and bustle. Boots needs a home with no other dogs, although she can be integrated with cats. Unfortunately her temperament around other dogs is the opposite of her temperament around people and she can become very aggressive if confronted with another canine. When I took her on it was clear that she had not been treated properly by her previous owners, and I believe that she was either allowed to be mistreated by another dog when she was a puppy or she was not actively socialised. As such I am only willing to let Boots go to a home that will fully understand this caveat and what it entails, and are able to commit to walking her at times when she is least likely to encounter another Dog. I do, however, firmly believe that if her new owner is so inclined this behaviour could be therapised out of her. It's also important to note that she will eat literally anything that she considers possible to digest. You've been warned. She is fed twice a day and needs to go for at least one walk a day, preferably two. Boots currently has a poorly paw that is being treated, and so I'll only allow her to leave me when this is fully healed, which should be in the next couple of weeks. Before I let her be re-homed I'll need to arrange a visit both to mine to meet Boots and for me to come and see that her new home is suitable. Ad ID:
