Czar in action

This is Czar, Czar came to live with us under false pretences. Czar’s family broke up. Mom (Bunny) and Dad (Doos) got divorced, Doos moved to America and Bunny moved to a townhouse complex. Czar went to live with a family (unknown people) that kept him outside when they were out. They went on holiday and left the security company to feed him.

Czar is a neurotic animal, He suddenly locks up in fear and will not climb the stairs but the worst is Czars fear of lightning. Czar panics and during a storm he escaped from the new home and the SPCA called Bunny, You see Czar is chipped.

She asked if we could look after Czar until the new family came home from their holiday. That was two years ago. Czar destroyed my lounge curtains in the first week, We were out when a storm hit. He was left indoors with the other children, Likkerish, Freddy and Diamond. I was pissed at Bunny as I had not been warned by her about this particular issue.

Majestic and beautiful

I should have sent Czar away then, but I felt sorry for the quivering lump, and tried to work around his fears. When we go out we tie the curtains up in stormy weather, We keep him out of the bedrooms. I have never seen a dog moult like Czar does.

Alert

Last year during storm season we went on holiday and got housesitters in, For the sake of this story, we will call them dumb and fucking dumb.  They were given instructions and yet I got home to 3 sets of ripped curtains.

I considered finding Czar a new home, but once again he was reprieved. On Friday we popped out to the shops, Czar was left outside for the half an hour. He escaped from the back garden when some lightening came up, Broke into the house in my daughters bedroom shredding the curtains in the process.

Relaxed

Czar needs more attention than we can give. He needs a home where he can lie at the feet of some one all day long. He needs a home where there is always someone home. Czar is gentle, he is calm and good with animals and children. He is a damned fine watch dog, He just however is an indoors dog, not a farm dog. Czar has woken me on 3 occassions when the bad guys were still on the driveway. I would not recommend babies and toddlers being around him, because he shows an unnatural fear of the demon toddlers that we seem to have visit us.

If you can give Czar a home, please call us at 013 745 8337.
