29-08-2024 Socks is a very scared girl who has come to us from a breeder. She is not familiar with being around people so has no idea that hands can be kind and loving and can make the wrong decision when approached because she is immediately on the defensive. This is completely understandable as it comes from a place of fear and we will be working with her to how her that we are here to help her. Socks needs a calm adult only and experienced home where she can get the TLC she needs and there must be at least one kind dog who will allow her to cuddle up to them for support and comfort if she wants to. Socks has never been in a home so this is going to be completely overwhelming at first and she will need owners with endless time and patience to help her learn about house training etc. At first the garden may be as scary and the inside of the home so getting in the garden and then back in the home could take time. She has no idea about lead walking and this is something her new owners will need to work on once they have gained her trust. They will need to start practising in the garden and then progress outside in quiet areas. In time and with owners who really understand her needs Socks will slowly start to flourish and become the happy girl she should have always been. She has a PETS travel document.
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.
