Arnold

More about me

Get to know me…

Arnold came into our care following welfare concerns in his previous home.

When he first arrived at the centre, it was clear that he’d had very little socialisation with people. He’s perfectly happy entertaining himself—playing with toys, exploring his surroundings and generally keeping himself busy.

With the combination of time, patience, hands-off socialising and his love for food, Arnold has begun to grow more comfortable around us. He no longer hides away, and we’re delighted to see these positive steps. However, Arnold still has a long journey ahead before he’ll feel fully confident around people.

Because of this, Arnold is looking for patient, understanding adopters who will place no pressure on him to be touched, and who can provide a calm, predictable environment. He’ll need the freedom to choose when he interacts, allowing his confidence to continue to build at his own pace. Any affection Arnold may offer in the future should be viewed as a bonus, not an expectation.

Arnold is currently on a sensitivity diet due to previous stomach upsets, and this will need to be continued in his new home. As his breed may be prone to certain health issues later in life, potential adopters should also be prepared to manage these with veterinary support if needed.

Do you have the right home for Arnold to thrive in?
