About Dusty
Diesel is one of the sweetest boys and he has come a long way from being a shy kid to being a sweet, bouncy and playful guy.
Diesel is still learning how to be confident with his surroundings so a quiet and calm household would definitely continue growing his confidence without pressure.
Diesel needs a mature family aged 16 and up with an experienced owner that is able to read his signals and understand his body languages. Diesel can be avoidant of touch at times by moving himself away - which is a positive reaction! In this case, he needs a family that can respect his boundaries and let him move to someplace he feels more comfortable.
That said, he is a playful dude who loves making dog friends to go on walks with. If you have a dog at home that you think will be a good match with Diesel's playful nature - maybe an older dog who can teach him about the world - please speak to our staff to organise a match up!
As Diesel can be shy at first, he must meet all family members to ensure that he feels comfortable interacting with them and be able to build a bond with each and every one.
Please allow him indoor and outdoor access that way he can spend lots of quality time with his family indoor - and also be able to leave an area or situation where he is feeling overwhelmed and go outside to chill-out on his own.
Diesel gets too tempted to chase small animals so it is best that you do not have any pocket pets at home. He loves soft toys and rope toys, and will play tug-a-war with you!
If you think you are the perfect family for Diesel, please come in and meet him at the shelter!
