Oolong

Oolong is a gentle and sensitive boy who is slowly discovering that the world can be a safe and happy place. Oolong is a worried soul who hasn’t had much experience of life in a home, so indoor spaces and all the sights and sounds that come with them can feel very overwhelming. Things like household appliances are likely to be a little scary at first, and he’ll need patient adopters who can introduce him to these things gradually and allow him to settle at his own pace.

Once he knows and trusts you, however, you’ll see a very different side to this lovely boy. He forms strong bonds with his people and looks to them for reassurance. Oolong has even recently discovered the joys of playing, picking up toys and throwing them around by himself, which is a wonderful sign that his confidence is growing! He is also a fantastic social dog and has mixed beautifully with a variety of dogs, happily matching their energy whether they want to relax or have a playful romp.

Oolong would love a calm, quiet household with people who understand that building trust takes time. He is currently more comfortable around women and may need longer to bond with men, but with patience and consistency he has shown that he can build wonderful relationships.

Oolong may need a little extra time and understanding, but for the right person, watching this sweet boy grow in confidence and discover his playful, affectionate side will be incredibly rewarding.
