More about Axel
Meet sweet little Axel!
Axel came to Battersea due to a change of owners circumstances.
He has a lovely history in his previous home both with people, children and other dogs. His owners said he was an excitable boy that loved to be in the presence of people and have a good play with other dogs on walks and in the home!
Since coming into Battersea, we have seen a very sweet, friendly boy with a sensitive side to him. He has really struggled to settle alone in kennel and has found being on his own stressful, often howling throughout the day for attention. He's been quite stressed on walks around our busy London site - whining at times but is building in confidence each day. He's been independent when interacting with other dogs so far but does have some friendly greets.
Axel could live with first time owners that are willing to put in some training around his time alone. He could live with another dog of a similar size and temperament to him that won't pester him too much in the home! He can live with sensible children that won't overhandle him and respect his space when having a rest. While a garden would be beneficial, it is not essential for lovely Axel.
Axel has shown to be such a sweet boy that wants nothing more than to be curled up in the lap of his favourite people, he will be a lovely addition in his new home.
