gillbear Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Meet the gorgeous Ubu who after being cared for at the shelter for more than 1 year he has been surrendered for rehoming. At almost 10 years old Ubu is still an active boy who is just a delight and the staff adore him. He is looking for an owner who is prepared to be owned in the way that only Blueys can, Ubu wont want to share you so he will need to be an only dog. Plenty of balls and toys are an absolute must. I am absolutely gobsmacked that Ubu hasnt been snapped up already. http://adoptapet.com.au/animal/animalDetails.asp?animalType=3,16&statusid=3®ionID=7&task=search&tpage=1&animalid=291199 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ubu had a failed adoption recently where he was returned after a few days, poor babe has been depressed ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheilaheel02 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I will spread the word about Ubu. Unfortunately we have had ongoing issues with our website which has prevented us from loading up new dogs, but a new one is under construction and hopefully will be live soon. We will then put Ubu up. I'm sure there is a home out there for him, he looks like a very cool character. S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baifra Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Ive been looking for an old cattle boy but he wouldn't be an only dog. Such a shame as he is just my type of boy.... Good luck Ubu. What a handsome boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a handsome boy. Just a thought ..... if Ubu has been kennelled for over a year (obviously he would have been having play and exercise sessions) how do you know for sure the he isn't good with other dogs. In another situation, with another person (particularly someone as experienced as baifra), he might be completely different from how he presents in the shelter. I do understand that it would take a huge leap of faith to try to discover that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeelerLove Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Ubu is gorgeous unfortunately I do not have room for any more My Cattle girl sounds very similar in that she does always not like to share us with our boy but as long as the attention is equally divided (or she gets a little bit more :p) she is pretty happy. And if she feels like she is being left out she'll just head nudge you until the focus is back on her lol :) I hope Ubu gets the best home to live out the rest of his days.

I think it was a case of the adopters having another dog and Ubu didnt get along with it. Ive been looking for an old cattle boy but he wouldn't be an only dog.

I am sure your boy is out there waiting for you. :) Ive been looking for an old cattle boy but he wouldn't be an only dog. Such a shame as he is just my type of boy.... Good luck Ubu.

I do understand that it would take a huge leap of faith to try to discover that. I agree absolutely. I am not sure of the exact circumstances, but the shelter would be able to give more information. I have sent them an email, just awaiting reply Edited June 3, 2013 by gillbear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheilaheel02 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Baifra, I'm wondering if Woody who is still with me might suit you? Can you PM me your requirements and I will let you know if it might be an option. S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have sent them an email, just awaiting reply That's great, gillbear. My thinking is that as much information as possible just might help tip the balance in Ubu's favour. I am firmly of the opinion that there is a home for every adoptable dog - it is just getting the information "out there" so that person can be found ...... and that is where you do such a wonderful service for these dogs.

jezzabel Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 (edited) Is he listed on petrescue? Has anyone considered AWDRI for this boy? I am in Queensland with a GSPx an ACD bitsa and a grumpy cat. If he could get along with the cat, then I would sort out the other two nutters. Sorry I cannot read without specs. Honestly, the RSPCA should hand him over to AWDRI. He would be in foster care within days and they could promote him properly. Edited June 6, 2013 by jezzabel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
