Max needed a life line just shy of 1 month ago and thankfully the lovely Hannah from Active Animals stepped in. We've been kept up to date on his training and couldn't be happier with the progress he's made - here's what Hannah has to say 👇🏾
Meet Max 1 year old (working line) patterdale
Max is looking for a new home he is a very affectionate and busy little guy (approx 6kg) he has been in foster with us for just over 3 weeks and is thriving, he is an incredibly intelligent boy …..
HOWEVER he requires an experienced, active, quiet adult home, with an interest in training to help him be the best boy
⭐️ Terrier experience essential ⭐️
Can live with an older dog with careful introductions, regular time out and management, but would also be happy as an only dog with regular dog interaction - he has lived with 4 in foster and has his preferences, he needs to be carefully managed as he can get agitated around loud noises and commotion.
Max would make a great cani sport prospect as he enjoys hiking and canicross. With us he gets approx 2.5 hours of exercise a day plus training and play.
He can be nervous, but takes a lot of confidence and comfort from his handler
Max LOVES playing with toys particularly the flirt pole, tug and loves chews - hooves are his favourite!
He enjoys trick training and game based training but needs set boundaries and expectations - give him an inch he’ll take a mile!!
He requires a quiet secure garden, as he has previously had issues with neighbouring dogs along fences, although no sign of this whilst here with us he has been able to relax and calm down in the garden.
He is crate trained and will sleep all night downstairs, also happy to be left for up to 4 hours in his crate with a chew too.
Max is Muzzle trained and has been wearing it for dogs introductions/ handling.
Toilet training - in progress.
Max will not be suitable to live with cats and small animals.
Responds really well to the Clicker and having clear boundaries.
Fully vaccinated and castrated
