07-07-24 Dotty has come to us from a breeder ready to find her forever home. She is quite frightened at the moment and will try her best to run away from you and hide. Once in your arms, she is is easy to handle but she will need kind and patient adopters who will let her settle in at her own pace as she learns that human hands can be kind. She will be looking for a calm and quiet, aduilt only home with adopters who have experience with scared ex-breeding dogs. She will need at least one other kind and confident resident dog in her new home to be her friend and take her under their wing and help her learn all about being a loved family member. She has never lived in a home before and so her adopters will need to be kind and understanding while she settles in and learns all about home life and new skills like house training. She will also need to learn all about walking on a lead and harness, first around the home and garden until she has built up enough trust and confidence to venture outside. Dotty is a sweet girl who so deserves to find her forever home and it will be so worth it when you see her little tail start to wag for the first time.
20-07-24 UPDATE
Dotty has had 6 teeth extracted at the time of her spay and is also currently being treated for a ear infection. She has a Grade 1-2 heart murmur, which she doesn't currently require any medication for, but it is something her adopter and their vet will need to monitor.
01-08-24 UPDATE
Dotty has been in foster for just over a week and is settling into home life very well. She sleeps through the night downstairs with the resident dogs and is clean through the night. With the hot weather she has access to the garden all day and does all her business outside. Dotty eats well and will take treats from my hand. She is still very nervous around humans as she is unsure of their intentions but it is early days, she will get there. She has not had a harness or lead on her as yet but this will be tried in the next week or so. Dotty definitely needs a friend in her new home to help her confidence and to teach her how to become a family pet.
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.
