Fred, Red Fell Terrier, DOB 07 - Suffolk



Homing Requirements: Fred's future family will own at least one other fluent dog. They will understand the patient, slow and understanding needed to enable Fred to develop skills, with staged exposure to life commenced within foster. Fred is not to wear a collar until February and always to have a harness for walking so no pressure is applied to his throat. Fred needs to attend our vets in Teddington in May so Rescue Remedies can review post operative outcome, we will pay.

His Story: Fred was held back as a Fell Terrier stud dog within breeding kennels. He sustained a bad throat injury needing surgery within the kennels and came to us with very restricted breathing and exercise tolerance. We did a major op, a one-off corrective procedure and he has made a very good recovery.

Advert: Fred is 4 years old and has just come out of his breeder’s kennels where he has been all his life. He is dog fluent and non-aggressive, has always shared a kennel with a bitch and enjoys the company of other dogs. Fred is enjoying human company and is receptive to approach and touch. He loves to be stroked behind his ears and tummy: naturally clingy, just can't get enough of what he has never had before … human companionship! Tolerant of household objects and noises as novel as they must seem. He has heightened awareness to movements rather than to noise, shying away. Fred has just had a major throat operation and made a very good recovery. We are using a harness, taking care not to involve his throat in walking. Fred has yet to start vaccinations, though is neutered and chipped.

Fred is a Red Fell terrier. He has a soft wire-ish coat which seems a contraction but true. He is learning to walk tall and is a hundred miles away from the original picture on his thread where he was walking with a stooped submissive back, though his nature remains submissive. Fostered in with a Terrier bitch who is getting used to having another dog in her house and Fred has been brilliant in sending no threatening vibes! Now beginning to walks outside, beginning to use the garden and enjoying love, both the giving and receiving.
