    I’ve never been on walks before and will need a gentle introduction.

    I need to learn house training, lead walking, and other basics of home life.

Savvy, who should really be called shadow is lovely little lady that likes to trotter by at your feet and watch everything you do, just like a little shadow. Savvy now, compared to the scared and shut down Savvy that came to us from a breeder has come leaps and bounds in the form of small hurdles. For most of her stay here she would not approach you for a fuss, or to be handled. She absolutely hated being groomed and was getting dangerously close to having to be sedated just to trim her hair! However, it is like a switch flipped and she suddenly began to open her heart to the humans around her and to our surprise allowed for us to give her a nice groom, and without being biased can we just say how absolutely amazing she looks after a fresh trim?! Even Savvy has a little more swagger in her step after. Once Savvy trusts and knows you, that is a bond that cannot be broken and it is genuinely amazing to watch the resilience of a once shut down dog flourish into an inquisitive and polished looking lady. Savvy will need another dog in the home as she relies on them heavily for support as well as an adult only home where she can continue to grow her confidence and trust.
