Darwin

Darwin is a gorgeous Malinois x Sighthound. Despite Darwin's grey face, he has lovely white teeth, and is 9 years old. In kennels he is a very friendly chap. Darwin will need 6 foot or higher fences and he won't be able to be left in the garden alone. Darwin has not been tested with cats or dogs yet but this can be arranged if needed. He adores everyone he meets. Please don't be put off by his gorgeous frosted face, dogs who are darker around the muzzle/eyes tend to go grey earlier in life. He still loves to run around the paddock. Another one of his favourite activities is sunbathing, we often see him catching a few ZZZs while he's out on the paddock. It's tiring work being so handsome! Darwin has been an angel at dog school around the other dogs and even said hello to Mutt's dog Merlin. Darwin is a superb boy. Always has a smile on his face and rarely lets anything get him down. During his time with us, Darwin has shown himself to be a lovely chap, super friendly to everyone he meets but it appears he can be food possessive. As long as food is kept away and he is left alone while eating, we are sure he can still be the perfect companion for someone as he learns that nobody is going to take his food away. Everyone who has met Darwin in person will tell you how extremely loving he is. All Darwin is looking for is someone to love him and teach him that he doesn't need to worry that his food is going to be taken away. We won't ever know what his past was but we are guessing that he was starved. He was very skinny when he came in to Mutts, which probably accounts for his possessiveness over food. We do know he can have the most amazing future with the right family. Darwin whilst at the kennels, has proved to have an excellent temperament around other dogs. Darwin will need an experienced dog home, to help him feel safe. He does have some resourcing issues but with management and patience we believe he can still be suited to home life. He will need a child free home. Preferably the only dog in the home but we would potentially consider another home where the owner is very experienced.
