Jasper's Story

Hi, I'm Jasper! ๐Ÿพ I'm an active, social young boy with a big personality and an even bigger heart. I'm looking for a calm, structured home where I can settle in, feel safe, and show you just how awesome I really am! The shelter has been a bit overwhelming for me, so I might need a little time to decompress in my new home-but once I do, I'm ready to be your loyal companion. I'd love to be included as part of the family and spend time indoors with you. Having my own cosy space (like a crate or bed) will help me relax and learn when it's time to switch off. One of my favourite things? Enrichment! I LOVE snuffle mats and using my brain, so feeding me through fun puzzles and activities will keep me happy and busy. I'm a strong boy on lead, so I'll need a front-attach harness and some continued training-but I'm keen to learn! Starting in quiet, low-distraction areas will really help me succeed. I'm best suited to a calm home (teens are okay!) where everyone understands the importance of staying relaxed and helping me feel secure. I can get a bit bouncy and cheeky-especially since I've discovered I can jump onto tables-so I'll need a secure yard with solid 6ft fencing. Sometimes I can feel unsure with handling, especially around my feet, so I'll need gentle, positive interactions while we build trust. The good news? Once I'm comfortable, I love calm, gentle massages-talk about the good life! ๐Ÿถ Dog friends? I'd do best with a calm, social female who matches my vibe. ๐Ÿšซ Busy dog parks and crowded places aren't really my thing. If you're patient, kind, and ready to guide me, I promise I'll bring lots of fun, personality, and love into your life. Love, Jasper ๐Ÿ’›

What should I feed my dog?

Your dog's diet should be based on a high-quality, balanced premium commercial dog food that is suited to their specific life stage (puppy, adolescent, adult, pregnant, senior) and health condition.

The amount of food your dog needs will depend on factors like their size, breed, age, and activity level. However, itโ€™s important not to overfeed or underfeed. Your vet can weigh your dog, assess their body condition score, and offer feeding recommendations.

To prevent bloat, which can be life-threatening, adult dogs should be fed at least twice a day and should not engage in exercise right before or after meals. This is especially important for deep-chested breeds like Boxers and German Shepherds.

Make sure fresh drinking water is always available. Do not give your dog milk as it can lead to gastrointestinal issues.

Should I feed bones to my dog?

Bones offer dogs nutrients and mental stimulation while helping remove tartar from their teeth. However, bones can also break teeth, cause blockages, and carry harmful bacteria. Consider these factors to make an informed decision for your pet and familyโ€™s wellbeing.

Dental chews are a good alternative if you wish to provide your pet with entertainment that assists with teeth cleaning. Visit RSPCA World for Pets for a range of quality dental chews for your dog.
