Irla ^
|
12-09-24 Irla has come from her breeder to find a loving home but she is feeling very overwhelmed at the moment. She has arrived with sore ears and skin that our vet will be treating and she needs a dental when she is spayed. She will try her best to get away from you as she has no idea why you want to be going towards her but once you pick her up she is gentle and will wait quietly in your arms. This girl needs some TLC in a calm and quiet home where she can learn all about the new world she has found herself in. Irla will need an adopter who is experienced in scared ex breeding dogs and understands how to gentle encourage her forwards. She will need at least one kind resident dog in her new home that can reassure her in the only way she understands at the moment as well as show her the ropes of home life. She will need to learn from scratch about house training and eventually how to walk on a lead and harness and will need safe areas to practice this before she can walk confidently and enjoy her walkies. She has much to learn but a dog like Irla is so rewarding and you will be so proud as she starts to let go of her fears and begin to enjoy her new life.

Irla has now had a dental and needed to have ten teeth removed. She may need another dental in the future. She had her ears flushed as they have been extremely sore and she is on medication for severe ear infection and possible pseudomonas and this treatment will need to continue for some time until her ears are comfortable.

Irla is an extremely timid little lady who will shake when approached by strangers. She heavily relies on her kennel pals for confidence and will 100% need at least one resident dog (ideally a friendly & confident) in her new home to show her the ropes of home life. When you’re outside her kennel she comes across as somewhat confident but as soon as you enter she will run and hide in her bed. She will allow you to pick her up and fuss her but doesn’t understand why but shows no signs of fear biting, she just freezes. Irla very much mirrors other dogs around her and therefore is more nervous when mixed with other nervous dogs. I believe kennel environment is also making her more timid as it can be quite overwhelming here for some dogs and a home would be a much better place for her to decompress
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.
