Bandit is an eighteen month old Jack Russell cross. Not Cat Tested. Can live with another playful dog or as an only dog. Respectful Children 10+ Bandit was recently surrendered into our care because the hectic household he was in was too much for him. On initial arrival to his foster home he was a very nervous little boy. He had not been socialised with other dogs and meeting all the dogs in this new environment was scary for him. However just an hour later he was playing happily with them. Bandit is a very busy little boy. He loves a ball and all toys and will play on his own for hours. Bandit is lead trained, but is nervous out and about due to lack of experience, adopters will need to work on improving his confidence . Bandit can live with another playful dog or on his own as long as he is socialised daily. He can live with respectful children over ten years old . Bandit is fine to be left a few hours a day and is crate trained and will sleep there happily all night.
Bandit fostered Hingham 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.
