Tery

‘He stole our hearts with his need for affection and cuddling!'

Tery is the sweetest little terrier cross, and handsome too. Born c. 2023, 12kg, neutered and partially sighted, Tery was once a stray who was caught and dumped in the state shelter. Now he lives in a foster home in Serbia.

During his time in the shelter, Tery was picked on by other male dogs and attacked repeatedly. Shortly before his rescue, the poor chap was bitten all over his head.  One of his eyes was so badly damaged that it needed to be removed.  Hence Tery is now partially sighted. 

Due to his horrific and repeated ordeals in the shelter, Tery is now wary of coming into close contact with other male dogs. He is not reactive on sight - as you can see from his videos, he’s not bothered by the presence of other dogs out on walks or in the distance.

As for female dogs, he is sometimes fine with close contact (again, as you can see from his video), but not always. Sometimes Tery’s trauma gets the better of him.

Tery is tolerant of cats but like many terriers, wants to play with them and can be too rough.

Therefore, we think the best home for Tery would be as the only pet in the home.

We know it can take longer for only-dogs to find a home. Please help us find a home for this dear little chap.  He adores people; he absolutely craves affection and cuddles.

Tery is very active and playful and will need an active home. He also needs people who will put in time to training him, guiding him, reassuring him and providing for his needs, helping him feel safe and secure.

Tery loves long walks.  He can walk on a lead but does need extra training as he does pull hard sometimes.  Currently Tery loves to dig holes - this could be due to boredom and lack of exercise in his foster home.  Tery needs regular physical and mental stimulation like any young terrier but sadly isn’t getting it currently.

Tery is very well behaved in the car and public places - look at him hanging out at the cafe! 

He is used to living in a home environment.  He really is a cracking little dog - let’s not let his past get in the way of finding him the home he deserves. 

As his rescuer says, ‘if you give Tery love, patience, and guidance you will get the most loving, loyal, and happy dog’. Sounds like he might be worth it.
