Personality & Behavior
Attila arrived from a municipal canil with his siblings. After two years living in a small concrete box without the possibility to go out, he, his brother Gengis Khan, and his sister Jenny came to our shelter. First absolutely overwhelmed by all the noises, they kept hiding in their box. Attila is slowly starting to trust humans again.
It will take time until he trusts humans enough to go on walks on a leash.
Adoption Requirements
Home type : Attila thrives in a home with ample space, a secure yard or garden where he can roam and relax without feeling confined. A quiet, structured setting is ideal to help him feel safe and comfortable, allowing him to settle into his new family seamlessly.
Experience level : Attila deserves an owner who understands the value of gentle guidance and the time it takes to build trust with a sensitive soul like his. Owners who are familiar with caring for larger dogs and who can provide the physical space and mental stimulation he needs will help him flourish.
Other pets/kids : A home with no other overly dominant or high-energy dogs, ensuring that Attila can enjoy a balanced environment without unnecessary stress.
