22-01-25 Ava is a very scared girl who has come to us from a breeder to find her forever home. She hasn't been socialised much with humans so is very worried about our presence at the moment and will do everything she can to get away from you so she can run away and hide. She will be looking for a calm and quiet, adult only home with adopters who have experienced of 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 help her to settle in and learn all about home life and new skills like house training. She has never walked on a lead before and this will be extremely worrying at first so her adopters will need to build up to lead walking by first letting her wear a harness around the home and garden until she is confident enough to venture outside. She is a very scared girl who will need lots of TLC as she starts to learn that human hands can be kind, but it will be so worth it when you see her tail wag for the very first time. With love and kindness she will start to come out of her shell and will begin to let her true personality shine through. Ava has a PETs travel doucment.
13-02-25 UPDATE
Ava has been with me for about 3 weeks and the difference I’ve seen in that time has been just wonderful. When I first brought her over to my section, she was extremely flighty, timid, and definitely didn’t want to be anywhere near us humans. Fast forward to now, she greets me with a waggy tail every morning, she puts her paws on my lap to give me kisses on my face, she’s happy and playful, and she’s already getting so much better at being handled.
She is still uncomfortable with being picked up and probably will be for a little while, but she is already making progress with it. So far she has let me trim the hair around her eyes, so I might try and bathe her soon if I think she’s ready for it.
Ava would love a forever home with a playful resident dog who could match her puppy-like energy, and adopters who will give her all the time and patience in the world. Because she’s so young and she’s already coming on so well, I do think that she will absolutely blossom in the right home, but it is still going to take a bit of work. When it comes to things such as walking on a lead, it will have to be done slowly and carefully not to overwhelm her and set her back. Practicing in the garden for a while will definitely be the way to go!
If you have a calm home with no children and a toy box full of chews and teddies … please consider this beautiful girl!!

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.
