'Model' Edinburgh dog searching for loving home in the capital

An adorable dog is searching for a loving home to live the rest of his years out in Edinburgh, as he 'models' for the camera.

The Edinburgh Dog and Cat Home posted an adoption request on social media, and joked that Kylo the dog has been "taking his modeling duties very seriously".

The tweet read: "Kylo takes his modeling duties very seriously! This brilliant boy has been with us far too long, and is more than ready to start his new life in a loving home. Interested in Kylo?"

And according to their website, Kylo is looking for an experienced owner who is familiar with nervous dogs and their needs, and can confidently read a dogs body language.

The German shepherd and collie mixed breed needs an adult only home where children won’t be visiting, and will need to be the only pet in the home.

The nine-year-old pup would prefer to live in a quiet area away from the city which has a private garden.

Kylo’s new owner will need to visit him several times before adopting, and they must be prepared to bring him back for a few sessions with the charities training team.

Kylo is a nervous boy who will require several visits to become comfortable with his new owners, and more visits to build up a trust with them.

He is very wary around new people so needs a dedicated person who will help him overcome this. When he gets to know you, he is very loving and is sure to be a great companion for the right people.

He is wary around other dogs and will sometimes bark at passing bikes, but he has been working very hard in his training sessions and is very eager to please.

The charity want to carry on these sessions with his new owner, so they can work together to help Kylo continue to improve.
