FACTSHEET: ALL ABOUT Ralph | |
---|---|
Pictures (click to enlarge previews) | |
Ralph is longing for a home of his own, walks and petting, and just to have company. He is very friendly, but he gets very lonely in the shelter so will really cling to us when we visit. He loves going for a walk and walks really nicely on leash. We expect he will calm down a lot in a good home with regular enrichment and exercise. | |
Ralph was found abandoned as a puppy, along with another of our dogs, Bobbie. They were fostered temporarily but unfortunately did not find homes, so had to move to the shelter. He has now been at the shelter for almost 2 years. Which is far too long. | |

Behaviour around dogs: | Ralph is fine with our other dogs who are calm and polite towards him. Sometimes he reacts when another dog is growling or barking at him through the fence, however this is no indication that he would have a problem in a normal and calm environment. He previously shared a space with another young male dog. |
Behaviour around cats: | Not tested, probably risky |
Behaviour around kids: | Ralph is quite energetic sometimes. He just loves people, he might be too much for small children with his size and energy, however he will probably be much more relaxed in a home. Children who can stay calm around dogs would be good companions for him. |
Could be the only animal: | Yes |
