This precious puppy was found with its two siblings by a family at the side of the road in a town near Alcañiz. Thankfully, these people didn’t look away, they picked them up and brought them to the shelter. Sil’s two siblings have already been adopted. It has been a bit hard for poor Sil to accept that his siblings have found a family while he remains in the shelter, but little by little, he is making new friendships and bonds with the caregivers. We believe he is a mix of Mastiff and Shepherd dog, both herding breeds, but we’re not entirely sure yet. This means he’ll need to be exercised both physically and mentally. For now, he’s still a bit shy since everything is new to him, but he’s opening up quickly. Besides playing and receiving treats, something he loves is lying belly up to soak up the sun. We believe he’ll be a medium to large-sized dog.

Sil needs a family that can teach him how to be a grown-up dog, that can help him grow up balanced and become a happy adult dog in a home filled with understanding, patience, and love. Could you be that family?

* Until complete adaptation, adult supervision with small children is essential.

** This means we have tested the dog with cats in the shelter and has shown no reactive behaviour, but this does not guarantee 100% compatibility with cats. Therefore, we always advise that cats and dogs are together only under surveillance.
