Luca

Meet Luca!

Luca is a 5 year old terrier who truly embodies the classic terrier spirit. He loves playing with his toys, following his nose on exciting scents and happily digging or rolling around when given the chance. Luca is a fun, intelligent boy who enjoys engaging both his body and his mind.

Luca is looking for a calm, understanding home where he can continue the positive progress he has already made with the team here at the centre. His ideal home would be a quieter household with no more than two or three people and no other pets. This environment will help Luca settle, feel secure and build confidence as he gets used to his new routine.

Luca can feel worried around other dogs and unfamiliar people, and he values having his own space where he can relax and decompress. Our team has been working closely with him, teaching him valuable skills to help him regulate his emotions and cope better in situations he finds challenging. To set Luca up for success, his new family will be required to attend multiple visits at the centre. These visits will help Luca gradually build a positive relationship with his adopters and allow our team to guide you through the training and strategies he has learned.

To help manage his anxieties, Luca is currently on long term behaviour medication, which his new family will need to continue under veterinary supervision.

Luca promises to make you laugh and will be an incredibly rewarding companion for the right home. He is a very smart boy who learns new tricks quickly, and ongoing training, enrichment and mental stimulation will be key in helping him build confidence and feel fulfilled.
