Hi, I’m Baxter
Young Baxter, with his beautiful whiskery black coat, is like an old soul in a young body. Friendly & affable, he is a joy to be around, enjoying the company of humans & fellow dogs alike. Baxter is looking for a home where he will be an important member of the family & be included in activities & outings. Wolfhounds can become depressed if left on their own away from their family, so it is important that Baxter does not have too much alone time. He will not thrive being left in a backyard all day.
Baxter is definitely open to meeting the current dog in your life if you have one & could absolutely co-habit with a canine companion.
The Irish Wolfhound is an impressive breed known for their loyalty, affection, patience, and devotion but early and proper socialisation is essential. In 1902, the Irish Wolfhound was declared the regimental mascot of the Irish Guards.[9]
Before bringing a puppy into your home, consider the following:
Puppies are learning how to navigate the human world and need your guidance. Gradual and positive introductions to new experiences will help foster their confidence and resilience. It's important to reward behaviors you appreciate, as puppies will repeat actions that lead to positive reinforcement. Effective rewards include praise, treats, toys, and playtime.
Puppies have a strong instinct to chew! Make sure to provide plenty of appropriate chewing options and manage their environment so they don't gnaw on things they shouldn't. Puppy pens and crates are valuable tools for controlling their access and providing a safe space for eating, resting, and playing.
Toilet training requires patience; it won't happen overnight. Consistency and repetition are essential for raising well-mannered, happy, and healthy pups. Avoid punishing your puppy for accidents; instead, reward them for using the designated area.
Puppies are lively, inquisitive, and energetic. They love to chew and require significant time and effort to help them adapt to a human environment. It's important to teach children how to interact appropriately with puppies, reminding them that puppies are not toys. Supervision is crucial during interactions between young kids and puppies.
The more time, effort, consistency, and love you put into your puppy, the less likely behavioral issues will develop in the future. Always research your chosen breed to ensure they align with your lifestyle.
