Wicks (aka Pete)
About This Dog
Wicks (aka Pete)'s ideal home
Handsome Wicks (a.k.a Pete after the lovely Mr Wicks himself!) is a 2 year old Akita X looking for a fairly active family that can take him on lots of interesting walks and the have lots of cuddles to give him. He is a friendly boy and could join a home with children of Older Primary School age who are confident around bouncy dogs as he can jump up when excited. Wicks has walked with other dogs at the centre but can sometimes been a bit much for them as his interaction style is quite full on. He would like to be the only dog in his new home but would benefit from some doggy friends on walks to help build his social skills. We have not seen a prey drive from Wicks so he has the potential to live with a dog savvy cat and/or small furries and/or livestock providing initial introductions are carefully managed. Once settled, he could be left for short periods of time. Wicks can be worried by a crate so would prefer to travel in the boot with a dog guard or on the back seat of the car. Providing Wicks is provided with the exercise he needs, a garden is not essential, though he would love somewhere to play fetch with his new family.
Could you be Wicks (aka Pete)'s perfect match?
Wicks (a.k.a Pete) came into our care through our Chance of a Lifetime scheme having been found as a stray in Ireland. We have found him to be a friendly boy who adores a cuddle as well as the opportunity to get his nose down and sniff and explore new places.
