20-05-25 Joleene is a very gentle and timid girl who has come to us from a breeder. She’s a true sweetheart and an absolute heart-breaker, but right now she’s carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders. Joleene is currently a little shut down and unsure but is trying her best to understand a world she’s never known and what she needs most is kindness, patience, and love.

She will need an adult-only home where life is calm and gentle, and where her new family understands that trust takes time. Joleene has never lived in a home before, so everything, from house training to walking on a lead – will be completely new to her. She will need a gentle introduction to a lead but for now some sniffs and a stroll in the garden may be a good start.

Joleen has come to us with pressure sores on her hocks and elbows from laying on hard flooring, dermatitis on her skin that is receiving treatment and healing scabs and scaring on her right shoulder.

A kind and confident resident dog is essential to help show her the way, offer comfort, and be the steady paw she can rely on as she finds her feet. With time, tender care, and a lot of love, we believe Joleene will begin to blossom. She may not be ready to show it yet, but there’s a truly special girl in there just waiting for the chance to shine.

Joleene has a travel document.
