Bart – 9 year old male Podenco Cross

Bart is a gentle, timid 9 and half year old male Podenco Cross. He is a large Podenco mix boy with a short tan coat and a slim body.

Bart gets along with the other dog in foster called Amora and has always gotten on well with his kennel mates, both in Spain and now in the UK. We need to find a loving home for him with the company of another dog to give him confidence.

Bart has been in the UK for 3 years and has lost his owner, so we need to find him another home with an experienced person used to uncertain and timid dogs. When he spends time with you, his fears subside and he is a lovely playful dog.

He likes to run and will chase furries if he sees any. Bart stands at approximately 29 inches from floor to back and has been used to a large garden and his own living annexe. He is good on lead and confident when out, but he hasn’t been let off lead in open spaces.

Unfortunately, his owner has died, so it would be a treat for him to have a new warm, comfy home with experienced owners, with an existing friendly dog. A large garden would be a great positive for him, and small children would worry him, so no children under 15 please.

His best points are his gentleness and desire to please, helping him build up confidence in new situations. Living in an annexe for the last 3 years did not help with his confidence when he arrived, so we are looking for more integration with family life and gentle walks.

He is now more outgoing, responds well to change, and is happy to meet new visitors. We don’t know about cats, and more exposure to travelling in cars is what we are working on.

Pet Friendly San Antonio: Exploring The River Walk & Beyond

Image
San Antonio is a fun, pet friendly vacation destination. With the famous River Walk park stretching 15 miles, you’ll love exploring all the neighborhoods and historic sites along the way!   Founded as a Spanish mission and colonial outpost in 1718, San Antonio became the first chartered civil settlement in present-day Texas in 1731. For the history buffs among us, there’s a lot to see! Now San Antonio is among the nation’s fastest-growing cities. But the downtown area is still easily walkable with your pet. And our favorite way to explore the city is on foot (and paw). San Antonio’s Pet Friendly River Walk Ages ago, when Rod and I first visited the San Antonio, the River Walk was a fun, slightly seedy, tourist destination. Since then, initiatives have extended and beautified this spectacular urban oasis. The original U-shaped section, packed with bars, restaurants, hotels, and crowds, still anchors the River Walk. But now the park stretches runs 15 miles, following the cou...
