04-12-2024 This pretty lady is Twinkle and she is an oversized lapdog! Twinkle has come to us from a breeder and is a very affectionate girl wanting nothing more from you but your attention and love and she loves to give it back. Twinkles tail is always wagging and she is always happy to see us with a pretty smile of her face. Twinkle is a confident girl and could go as an only dog in the right circumstances, she could also be homed with older dog savvy children. Twinkle will need some time and patience to learn house manners such as toilet training, walking on a lead and also adjusting to house sounds such as the TV and hoover. Twinkle is going to make a perfect, loving addition to a household and she deserves her own bed to sleep in before Christmas. Our vets feel like Twinkle may have some arthritis so she is currently taking pain relief to help with this, which will likely need to be ongoing in her new home.
08-12-24 UPDATE
Twinkle is now in foster care and is slowly settling in with 2 other resident Bernese. She was diagnosed last week with arthritis which has led to significant muscle wastage in her hind quarters and she is currently on pain relief and supplements to see if this helps her movement. It is likely that she will be on these medications indefinitely. Twinkle is also undergoing physio sessions to help alleviate some of the stiffness. She is a happy, friendly girl but just a bit slower than her playmates and loves attention but drops to the floor when faced with unusual situations. She is still not house trained or able to walk on a lead but we will start her with this over the next few weeks. Another resident dog would be beneficial with her development as she will not leave her playmates side at the moment and constantly seeks their support.
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.
