Travis

Travis came from Romania into our rescue along with his 2 siblings in 2018. He has not yet been rehomed due to his disability but now we would love to find a very special home for this very special boy! Travis was born with issues in his hips and many vets in Romania diagnosed many different things, but it was only when he came into our care and saw our vets (and had more X-Rays) that we confirmed a diagnosis. Travis does not have any hip sockets – they never formed. So his hips do not stay in place and move about when he moves. He has never needed any pain relief and is a strong dog and copes very well and isn’t in any pain. Initially our vets said he should be PTS but after seeing him playing very happily, in no pain, and with the strength that he has in his front end, the vet agreed Travis has a great quality of life and deserves a chance to live it to the full! He loves running around the garden and playing, so needs a nice big garden and lots of space. We do need his home to have an understanding vet who is willing to work with us, if necessary, for any decisions on his future treatment and this would be part of our adoption contract. Travis is fabulous with other dogs, especially boy dogs. He loves to play out with the other boys here! Travis can be a bit funny with new people and can be a little barky. It doesn’t take him long to warm up and we think it’s a bit of territory guarding as he is fine when out and about. Travis walks fine on a lead and travels well in the car and has been well behaved at the groomers. Travis is looking for a cat free and child free home (older children only). Travis would be perfectly happy in a home where he never goes for a walk, as long as he has a big garden to run around and people to give him love and attention. He is a very sweet soul. If you this you can offer Travis the extra special home and family he needs, please complete the 'pre-adoption application form' at the top of this page. (Please note a homecheck and adoption donation of £500 applies). Thank you xx For more photos of the handsome Travis, please see his album on our Facebook (link below).
