MILLIE WILL NEED A HOME WITH HER SISTER JOSIE
18-04-24 Millie and Josie are sisters who are delightful little Dachsy ladies who love each other. They originally came to us from a breeder and were sadly returned after a short adoption but have thrived in foster and are now able to walk on the lead, travel in the car, are house trained (with the occasional indiscretion) and are easy going girlies who get on well with other dogs. They love having a free run around in my secure field and never stray far, choosing to know they are near the safety of their 'human'. They sleep contentedly in the family bedroom, loving to be snuggled up with warm coverings (they both feel the cold). Millie and Josie will need kind, gentle adopters who will be understanding and able to provide love, security and empathy. They would find young children and a busy household too intimidating Millie and Josie are available by donation.
11-08-24 UPDATE
These two sweethearts, Millie and Josie, continue to make steady progress. In so many ways they are 'normal' little Daxies but sadly still harbour their scary demons from their past. This can make them worried and distrustful at times. They enjoy their lives, take comfort in the familiarity of the established routines, the fun times (running about in my secure field), reliable friends and the comforts of home. They adore cuddling with each other and other kind dogs too. They will need a quiet, relaxed home with ideally just one gentle (but confident) adopter who will have experience, empathy and sensitivity.
20-11-24 UPDATE
It's hard to understand why these two little darlings have not yet found their forever home. They are the dearest little souls who just need a gentle, patient understanding person to care for them and allow them to feel safe and happy.
They have already come such a long way, now knowing about living in a home, walking on the lead and so on. They are still unsure about our intentions at times. They get concerned about new and unfamiliar situations and people. Of course, it will take time and empathy for them to make the gradual adjustment to living in a new home.
They love other dogs, so the presence of a gentle welcoming resident dog or dogs in the adoptive home will be very helpful.
Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
PLEASE NOTE: We nearly always home dogs who have come from breeders where there is ALREADY A RESIDENT DOG living in the house. They have usually never lived in a house before and are only used to canine company. They usually get their confidence and learn faster with another dog to copy from. This also helps with house training and learning how to walk on a lead. They will make lovely pets but do need a lot of love, time and patience. If the ex breeding dog you are interested in can be an only dog it will say so in its write up. Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
