GIZMO
Gender: Male
Age: Under a year
Neutered: Not specified
Gizmo is a lively 11-month-old collie/greyhound cross. Sadly, due to a change in circumstances, his owners have reluctantly handed him over to us.
He is an affectionate lad and eager to please, especially if a treat is on offer! He has some basic commands: sit, lay down, and wait but still needs some work with lead training and recall (when distracted by other dogs). He is of slim build and as you can see from the photos his back reaches about knee height ( woman), more collie height than a greyhound.
He has been the only dog in the household but is friendly with others when out and about, wanting to play. He is still a young dog so can be a little wary/anxious when in strange surroundings, but this shows in a more boisterous attitude rather than bad behavior.
He needs a home where he will get plenty of exercise, a fully fenced garden to play in, and where someone can give him the time to finish off the finer points of his training. He is an intelligent dog and a quick learner.
Adoption Process
Step 1: If you see a dog you like then please make an appointment to meet them by following the link on our Web site : www.roystonanimalwelfare.org/rescue
Step 2: Once you have met and decided to adopt a dog a home check will be arranged.
Step 3: Once your home check has passed, the adoption is completed, and you can pick up your new family member!
Our adoption fee is £200 for dogs. They are Vaccinated, Microchipped, Neutered, Flea, and Wormed and also come with 4 weeks of free insurance
If any of the above are not complete upon adoption vouchers covering their full cost will be issued. The adoption fee covers some of these vet costs - the rest is covered by fundraising.
A part of your garden must be enclosed and secure. A minimum 4ft fence/wall is required, depending on the size and nature of the dog this may be higher. Dogs can not be left on their own for more than 5 hours on a regular basis. Dogs must not be left to sleep outside at night or during the winter. If we know a dog is friendly with cats this will be specified. If this is not specified, the dog will not be re-homed with cats.
