	ref: 2007/05743 size: medium age: 3 to 6 months sex: Female		centre: Battersea breed: Rottweiller cross German Shepherd arrived on: 15 November 2007

Cash is a 9 month old Rottweiler cross German Shepherd that came into the Home as a stray in November 2007. Inquisitive and interactive with a quick mind, she will need owners that are active and up for taking on a "working project" by putting some effort in to training and socializing her in the correct manner. She has spent some time with the Behaviour Unit in order for us to investigate her interactions with other dogs and her dislike of formal handling and restraint.    

Cash is looking for:   

• Owners that have experience with large breeds like German Shepherds or Rottweilers and understand their respective breed traits and mannerisms. Ideally new owners will have owned these dogs from puppies and have a good understanding of how to maintain them within a household,


•  A good level of confidence and experience in dog to dog issues, ideally chase related behaviours,


• New owners will need to be prepared to listen to and take advice and follow any ongoing behaviour programmes, 


• Cash will need to be rehomed into an adult only environment due to her wary disposition when meeting new people. Older experienced teens (15yrs +) could be considered depending on experience, 


• A semi-rural to rural environment with a low dog population is essential in order to train her with few distractions and provide consistency, 


•  Cash will need to live in a house with an enclosed secure garden as opposed to a flat due to her reactions to new people,


• Cash will need to be tested with cats,


• Cash could potentially live with a steady robust mature male dog that has no chase related issues or stranger issues. 

  An effervescent busy lady that will make a fantastically loyal companion if provided with the right ground rules and guidelines from day one. Cash is at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home London. Please call the Behaviour Unit on 020 7627 7884 if you are interested in Cash or email us on [email protected] and quote ref 2007/05743.  Potential owners will receive advice and guidance regarding this training from the Behaviour Unit staff that have worked with her, potential owners should be prepared to come into the Dogs Home for a minimum of two visits.
