Breed: Patterdale Terrier Cross
Age: 3 Years
Location: Salisbury

Max is a lively and affectionate 3-year-old Patterdale Terrier cross who is looking for his forever home. Full of energy and enthusiasm, Max thrives on outdoor adventures and would suit an active home where he can enjoy regular exercise and stimulation.

While he’s full of energy outdoors, Max is wonderfully calm and cuddly inside the home. He loves human affection and settles well once is familiar with his environment and the people in it.

Max is dog-social and gets along well with other dogs. He would be well-suited to a multi-dog household and is comfortable around older children. We rescued him from the dogs trust where he came from a home with smaller children and babies - here he became cheeky, stealing socks, children’s toys etc he wasn’t given the attention and exercise he needed therefore these behaviours increased and he was sent to the dogs trust. He is also calm and respectful around horses.

A few things to know about Max:
•He may be initially wary of new/ unfamiliar people, (e.g. by unfamiliar dog walkers), and has been known to run off if unsettled.
•He has good recall most of the time but can become distracted by other dogs, so should be kept on lead if other dogs nearby are on lead. He is much better off the lead and loves running and playing with other dogs.
•He responds well to firm but fair boundaries and is eager to please once he understands what’s expected of him
