HANS
Hans is a 3yr old fawn greyhound boy. He is in lovely condition now and is quite a striking lad.
Sadly Hans has had a very tough start to life and is still recovering from it. He arrived with his friend Helga (recently adopted), both of whom were complete nervous
wrecks. Hans was the more timid of the two, and after several months of TLC is now starting to trust people again. He is still a very nervous lad and is easily spooked by
loud noises or sudden movements, though he is making slow and steady progress.
Dear Hans will need a very dedicated, patient owner to help him continue to learn about the outside world. Hans is not yet cat tested but this can be carried out prior to
adoption if needed. Ideally he will need doggie friends in his new home as he is more settled when other dogs are around, and an adult only home will be best. Hans has the
potential to be a very rewarding addition to the right family, who can help him realise that people can be trusted and teach him how to relax.
He is currently in a foster home in Norfolk where he is getting used to living in a home environment with home comforts.
**UPDATE**
Hans has improved vastly over the last few months. He is now becoming a confident, cheeky boy. He has discovered the joys of toys, and his new passions include balls and squeaky soft toys! Hans adores cuddles from people he knows and is a lovely gentle boy, quite undemanding and mannerly. He also walks well on the lead, has a good recall offlead, travels well in the car and is completely housetrained. He can also be left for up to 5 hrs and is non-destructive. Just give him a rawhide chew and he's in doggy heaven!
We feel that now Hans has come out of his shell, he could settle down as an only dog with the right family, as he loves his people so much. However, Hans gets on very well with all other dogs, including small ones, and could fit comfortably into an existing pack or provide a quiet companion for another pooch. He is currently living in a foster home with several other dogs, including
a small terrier, and is great with all of them.
He can still be unsure with people he doesn't know but this will continue to improve. Once you have gained his trust, you have a friend for life in this boy. He is a loving, loyal fella who lives to please. This gorgeous boy is most definitely ready and waiting for his forever home now, and will be an extremely rewarding member of the family.
