Zach came in to our care following a sheltered start in life. He has not experienced the full wide world and he is a shy and nervous boy as a result. Once he gets to know someone he will warm up and be affectionate but he is shy around new people. He will be looking for a paitent new home who can bring her out of her shell with love and patience. Due to his nervy nature he would not be suitable for a home with young children.

Zach is living with two other dogs as well as his sister Kia and is very good with them. He could be rehomed with canine company or as the only dog.
He is living with 6 cats from the age of 6 months upwards and is very well behaved with them.

Zach is not yet fully housetrained and this is a work in progress. He has been introduced to a crate and will settle in it nicely when he has been left for short periods by his foster mum.
Please note we do not rehome puppies to full time workers.

Zach is due to begin training classes with his foster mum very soon to lay the foundations for walking nicely on a lead and learning basic manners. It is recommended that his adopter attend training classes for further help and socialisation.

All Hope Rescue dogs are neutered (if over 6 months), vaccinated, flea treated, wormed and micro-chipped prior to adoption. If a puppy is not old enough to be neutered then this must be carried out at the owner’s expense when old enough, and the relevant form completed by the vet and returned to Hope Rescue. A homecheck will be required, and you will need to come and meet the dog with your own dogs and family. Hope Rescue rehomes throughout the UK. A Pre-Home Interest Form can be downloaded from the Hope Rescue forum.
