Apple

08-05-25 Apple is a dainty and adorable little girl who has come to us from a breeder. She is a very scared girl who is feeling very overwhelmed and unsure at the moment. She doesn’t yet understand that human hands can be kind, and her first instinct is to run and hide. But once she’s in your arms she’s easy to handle.
What Apple needs now is time, patience, and love. She will need a calm and quiet, adult only home where she can begin to feel safe at her own pace. Her ideal adopters will have experience with scared ex-breeding dogs and understand that progress may be slow, but every small step will be a huge achievement for her.
Apple will need at least one other kind and confident resident dog in her new home to help her settle. A canine companion will be vital in helping her feel secure and in showing her how to trust, play, and eventually enjoy life as a beloved pet.
Apple has never lived in a home, so she will need gentle support as she learns about house training and home life. She also hasn’t learned how to walk on a lead yet, so will need to practice in a secure garden first to build her confidence.
Apple is a delicate soul, but in the right hands, she will slowly begin to blossom. If you have a quiet home, a gentle heart, and a lovely dog who’s ready to show her the way, Apple could be the one you’ve been waiting for.
