Coapy
DerbyshireCoapy is a handsome fella who originally came to us for rehoming due to a house move. He’s a Border Collie x Munsterlander… meaning he is intelligent, and likes to be kept busy!Prior to coming to us, Coapy wasn’t walked much. This has left him with anxieties about the outside world, and he will react to sounds etc. He gets very stressed and would need a home where he can get plenty of exercise in the garden and mental stimulation to keep him busy… until he feels more comfortable. It was reported that Coapy was reactive to cars when out on walks – whilst we haven’t seen any signs of this whilst he’d been in out care, it is something that his adopters would need to be aware of.Coapy seems to be good with other dogs, and has lived with cats in his previous home.. so may be able to share his home with other pets again. He has lived with children, and could live with children again (8yrs and over).Coapy is incredibly friendly, and affectionate… he loves people and will do anything for a cuddle! He really enjoys spending time with our volunteers, and he’s a firm favourite amongst them! He gets lots of enrichment activities including puzzle feeders, snuffle mats and noise boxes.His previous owner reported that Coapy did have some separation anxiety, so he would be better in a home where he wont be left for long periods… he would need further work to help him to feel comfortable being left alone.We did rehome Coapy, but sadly it didn’t work out for a couple of reasons – mainly his anxiety when out on walks, causing him to be very pully and not focus on anything. But separation anxiety was also a problem too. He did share the home with several cats and another dog that he was fine with.
