Bjorn’s ideal home

Bjorn is a handsome 2 year old Dutch Herder/Malinois cross. He is a very energetic boy who loves to be out exploring new places. Bjorn’s favourite activity is doing tracking & scent work, he has a natural ability & it really is his forte, so he needs an owner who is serious about continuing this activity with him. Bjorn would love active owners to go with him on new adventures. He enjoys walks on a longline in the countryside where he can do lots of sniffing. Bjorn’s ideal home would be away from busy roads & walking areas. He can be a bit of a Houdini so a secure garden is a must for off lead exercise – he enjoys a good run. Bjorn’s new owners must be able to come & meet him 5 to 6 times so it’s important that you live no more than an hour away from us. He can be worried when meeting new people & can be reactive. He wears a muzzle for this reason and he will need owners who are comfortable to walk him in a muzzle in public places. Once he is in a new home, Bjorn will need someone around most of the time. He gets upset when left alone, so any time left alone will need to be built up gradually.

Could you be Bjorn’s perfect match?

Bjorn would benefit from owner with experience of Dutch Herders/Malinois or similar working breeds. He is a super bright dog & needs to have mental stimulation as well as physical exercise. Bjorn doesn’t have many manners when it comes to meeting other dogs so he will need dog savvy owners who are willing to continue his training & work on his dog socialisation. Bjorn will need to be the only pet in the home.
