Basmati
About This Dog
Basmati's ideal home
Basmati is looking for an active, quiet home who are willing to continue his training in confidence building and handling. He has limited life experience, however, has been tackling each day head on!
Due to his limited early experiences, Basmati would benefit from a home who had a private garden or secure outdoor space where she can safely explore at his own pace. Busy public environments can feel overwhelming at first, so having a quieter environment to settle into will help him feel more secure.
Basmati is looking for a family where someone is home most of the day to begin with to help him settle in. however, once settled leaving hours could be increased slowly.
Basmati could live with secondary school aged children who are calm and able to give him space when he requires it.
Basmati is looking for a home who is willing to continue with positive reward-based training and support him as he begins experiencing the world.
Could you be Basmati's perfect match?
Basmati is a gentle, sensitive young Shih Tzu cross who’s only just discovering what a safe and loving home feels like. After a tough start in life, he’s blossoming in foster—showing his sweet nature, curiosity, and love for being close to his trusted people. Once he knows you, he’s affectionate, cuddly, and happiest right by your side.
He’s still building confidence with new experiences and will need a calm, patient home willing to continue his training. Basmati is learning about housetraining, walking on a harness, and settling alone, and he’s making brilliant progress every day. He can be unsure with new people at first, but with gentle introductions (and a few treats), he soon relaxes and enjoys fuss.
Basmati enjoys toys, exploring the garden, and snuggling up with his foster carer. He would suit an active, quieter home with secondary school aged children and older, and he’ll need minimal leaving hours while he continues to gain confidence.
This lovely boy is ready for a family who can offer reassurance, routine, and plenty of love. With patience and understanding, Basmati will make a devoted little companion.
