We are looking for a foster home in Scotland for one of our larger dogs, Sahara, who is a desert dog cross breed and in residential boarding in Scotland. She comes with her own individual issues, so we are looking for an experienced foster home within specific criteria.
Sahara is available to adopt or foster. She is a stunning big dog with a lovely presence and she is just under 3 years old. She is in the UK already and is receiving excellent residential care and training at Garromuir Kennels in Aberdeenshire as she arrived in her original foster home exhibiting some behavioural issues. She has had lots of training and is now ready to be fostered again or adopted. This would be a supported foster or adoption with further professional advice available in her new home after arrival just to make sure everything is getting off on the right foot, so that the behaviours they have resolved do not come back. Sahara has lived in boarding kennels her whole life, she is clean in her kennel but may need support with house training. Her past life has contributed to her nature of self-preservation and she is a naturally dominant character, therefore she needs a firm but positive handler. Sahara is highly intelligent and a big foodie so she’s very trainable. Originally born in Saudi Arabia she is typical in nature to the desert dog types so she is quite independent and very alert.
As she is looking for an experienced home within specific criteria, the adoption fee would be on a different tarriff to our normal fee. This would be discussed during the application process. Fostering would be a separate process and comprehensively discussed with a potential foster on application.
Sahara's trainer reports would be available to view privately as part of any serious application to her foster or adopt her.
Full information on Sahara is on her individual page in our Available Dogs section. She will be available for collection in north Aberdeenshire to the right foster or permanent home.
