Odin is described as a German Shepherd/Collie. Can live with Teenagers Odin is looking for an experienced and active owner who have owned anxious dogs before.

Odin requires a quiet home away from the city centre. Handsome Odin is a sensitive boy who is desperate to find an understanding owner who can give him the calm and stable home he needs. He is very sweet, loving and affectionate with those he knows but is wary of new people and will require a patient owner who are prepared to meet him a few times first to build a good relationship. Odin can become easily overwhelmed, particularly in busy environments and by loud noises, so he needs a committed owner who can walk him in quiet areas and slowly build his confidence of the outside world. When he feels settled, Odin is an active boy who enjoys having something to do, he loves woodland nature walks where he can sniff out the interesting smells and may like to do scent work. He likes treats (even apples!) and thoroughly enjoys his enrichment sessions foraging for them. He is playful, excitable and loves fetching after his favourite squeaky ball!
