25-11-2022 Millie has come to us from a breeder.  She is a bit reserved at the moment but does allow you to pick her up and stroke her and we don't think it will take her too long to come round.  Millie will need an adult only, calm and gentle home where there is at least one other dog who is very kind and who will allow her to cuddle up to them for comfort and support if she wants to.  This will help raise her confidence with people and she will watch them and start to copy what they do and this will also help her learn new skills like house training and lead walking.  These may take her time to learn as the garden may be as scary as the inside of a home at first but with love, gentle words of encouragement and praise she will gradually start to realise there is nothing to fear and her adopters will see her become the happy little dog we are sure is just waiting to come out.

Millie has been in here in her foster home for a few weeks. When she first arrived she was very frightened and traumatised. She had learnt that humans are not trustworthy. This poor little girl needed kind, gentle patient handling, so she could come to realise she was not going to be hurt. She is doing much better, but her confidence is fragile. Considering all this she is doing amazingly well.
She loves the car, especially as she now knows trips in the car usually mean a visit to my secure field where she can enjoy having a free run and some fun times (see video) She is loving home comforts, being warm, comfortable and well fed. At night, she sleeps contendly in her own warm bed in the family bedroom. Millie has come into foster with her friend Josie, they love to do everything together and would happily be home together. Millie will need other kind, welcoming dogs in her adoptive home and sensitive adopters who are already experienced with scared dogs like Millie.

Millie has been here in foster for six months now.
She was very scared and fear reactive to begin with, but has gradually gained confidence and composure.  She is a happy girl, most of the time, but she does still need to gain confidence as the world is still quite scary to her.  She is a sweet little lady, but when overwhelmed by her anxieties, she can still react if she feels she has no option.  She doesn't want to do this, she just gets really worried.
She has accomplished a lot over the months.  She can walk on the lead in quiet areas, loves a free run in my secure field , loves a ride in the car.  She can now do the stairs, pops herself up on to the sofa, and really enjoys home comforts.  She is pretty much house clean and generally easy going in her manner.  She has NOT yet reached a stage where she would enjoy a cuddle - this would be far too much for her at this stage.
Millie is here in foster with Josie.  I believe these two are sisters.  They are incredibly alike in all respects.  They really love each other and would happily be homed together.
She will need very kind, gentle & understanding humans with a quiet peaceful home.  Millie loves other dogs, and will need  supportive tactile canine friends in her adoptive home.
