Description
Meet Yogi a 3-year old Chow cross who is ready to find a calm, understanding forever home. Yogi would be best suited to an adult home and would prefer to be the only pet in the home, though he could enjoy socialising with dog walking friends out and about.
Yogi has a huge personality and is great to handle when it comes to bathing and grooming. He is the perfect kennel guest and is good in every way for the staff on site but has shown some guarding issues in a home environment when he had a high value treat. Due to this, Yogi needs a home that will manage this well, by having a separate area, like a conservatory, spare room or utility room where he can have his treats away from people walking through. He will need an understanding owner who will allow him space and understand that items cannot be taken from him as he feels threatened when someone approaches when he has food. At the moment Yogi is still ongoing with his lead training and travels well in the crate in the van.
Yogi has not shown much interest with toys whilst in kennels, but he adores going in the paddock off lead for zoomies and does get very excited. Due to his size he will need someone experienced with large breeds and who is able to manage his guarding. Yogi is a truly wonderful boy who we believe will make someone a fantastic pet. He enjoys being groomed and is enjoying meeting new people when out and about on walks.
