We would like to re-home our 6 year old male beagle, Bertie. We will be
very sad to see him go as he has been a wonderful family pet for 6 years.
We have recently moved from London to Geneva and since we have arrived
Bertie has been suffering from separation anxiety. Whilst in transition,
when we were spending time in the mountains, Bertie got himself lost in the
deep snow for a number of hours and came close to freezing, it took us a
couple of weeks to get him up and about again. We are not sure whether
Bertie's problems have come from the move or getting lost or both. He gets
very stressed when we leave the house and whilst we are gone he has started
to turn out the bins, get into all of the kitchen cupboards and the fridge.
To prevent him from doing this we are putting him outside but he is
barking constantly which is not good for him and not fair on the
neighbours. The separation anxiety seems to be getting worse rather than
better and a couple of days ago he snapped at one of my children.

We recognise that he is going to need a lot of time spent with him
retraining him and getting him over these issues and unfortunately with 3
toddlers and no family in the country to help us, we are not going to be
able to dedicate that time. Bertie needs a home where he can be given lots
of time and attention to work through these issues. Until a year ago we
also had a labrador who sadly passed away and i think Bertie liked having
the company of another dog - they were inseparable! Bertie also lives with
cats, although he does chase them so only recommend with confident cats.
We have young children and so Bertie is very used to having them around
although since this anxiety has started he is not tolerating (possibly
frightened) of the children pestering him.
