Bobby

Meet Bobby Bobby is a big French bulldog, he weighs in at a whooping 15kg but he is not overweight. He has previously attended training classes with his previous owner to help with his socialisation around other dogs. He knows “look at me”, “sit” & “paw” Bobby can be left for around 4 hours alone with not destructive tendencies. He is house trained. Loves a car journey. Bobby’s ideal home: Only pet. No children. Active home as he loves his long walks. He needs an owner willing to continue with his training & socialisation around other dogs & new people – WE WILL PROVIDE GUIDANCE & ADVICE FOR THIS. Poor Bobby just cannot catch a break 😢. Please do not apply for Bobby if you are not willing to help him continue the work we have been doing with him in overcoming his difficulties with strangers & other dogs. Bobby can be reactive with strangers & reactive with other dogs. With a calm patient handler, the correct command words, he can overcome these issues, he’s proved this time & time again at the rescue but he needs time to settle before introducing him to new to new people, he needs to know he can trust his new owner!! This takes patience & time, we are talking weeks maybe months. Bobby spends time with one of our lovely volunteers in their home with no issues. As a new owner this is not going to come straight away, but we can promise this will come. Every time this gorgeous boy gets returned to the centre he loses his trust & confidence with people, which in turn means the next home, he won’t trust & this process gets longer & longer. I cannot stress enough how much of a gorgeous boy this dog is but we really need someone willing to put some work in. Bobby does also have some medical issues that we will discuss with any potential adopters but please be aware this would not be covered by pet insurance as it is a pre-existing condition.
