Raisha is a 10 month old pup who will grow to be no more than medium size. Raisha is from, what followers of Safe Rescue know to be, the Barking Bush in Crivatu, Romania. It is an area of shrub land known to be used to dump rubbish, furniture, and unwanted dogs. We have a history of busting a gut to catch dumped dogs from this area before anything bad happens to them. In Raisha’s case her and one sibling escaped death by only twenty four hours. The day after volunteers managed to catch them and get them safe, the rest of the litter were mercilessly slaughtered and left in the rubbish. Whilst their siblings were being given a respectful burial, Raisha and her brother were being taken to a private shelter where they remained safe and cared for until we could take them here in the UK. Raisha is a playful, affectionate girl who is ready to find her forever home. She loves the company of other dogs and would enjoy a canine companion, but she’ll also be perfectly happy as the only dog in the home as long as she has plenty of love and attention from her people. When she first arrived, Raisha was hand-shy and unsure how to ask for affection. The world was a little overwhelming, but with patience and care, she has blossomed into a more confident, loving soul who now seeks out tummy rubs and enjoys being close to the people she trusts. Watching her come out of her shell has been so rewarding, and she will continue to grow in confidence with a family who shows her the same patience and love. She walks well on the lead, making her a joy to take out. She’s housetrained and well-mannered, and her love of treats makes her both easy to win over and fun to train. Raisha has come such a long way already, and now she’s ready to take the next step on her journey: finding a forever home where she can feel safe, cherished, and loved for who she is. Raisha could live with dog savvy children 10+
Raisha fostered North Walsham, Norfolk.

Adoption Terms & Conditions
When you adopt a Safe Rescue dog, you MUST use a slip lead. This will keep your dog safe: your new dog will be nervous and will not trust you, and you will not know which situations might upset your dog. If your dog panics, then a slip lead is the only way to prevent your dog from escaping (many dogs can escape from a collar and/or harness). It will take AT LEAST 3-6 months for your dog to settle-in and for you to know your dog fully (longer for nervous dogs). The slip lead must ALWAYS be used during this settling-in period. Even after your dog is settled, it is safest to use the slip lead in situations where your dog may become scared (e.g. visiting new places, around unfamiliar people, at the vet), and it situations where unexpected triggers might happen (e.g. around bonfire night). Nervous dogs may always need to wear a slip-lead as a back-up safety measure. The slip lead is a safety device and must NEVER be used as a training tool. Using the lead to apply pressure to the dog’s neck is damaging. If your dog pulls on the lead, then we can advise you on training methods that avoid harm. Once your dog is settled, you may want to consider using a harness (together with the slip lead) if your dog is comfortable with being handled when it is fitted. Most harnesses are not escape-proof, but harnesses with a strap behind the ribcage (e.g. Ruffwear Webmaster or Perfect Fit Harnesses) are safer. Retractable / extendable leads must never be used on our dogs. Adopted dogs must be collected from the rescue and transported straight home in a secure metal crate. Fences and gates must be 5foot minimum in height and secure.
