Fable

Some dogs need a little more time to find their confidence. Some need someone to believe in them. And some, like our beautiful Fable, simply need the chance to discover what kindness really feels like. Fable is a Staffie cross who has had a difficult start in life and, because of the circumstances surrounding her case, she isn’t able to be fully shown publicly at this time. But behind the scenes, Fable has been quietly learning that the world isn’t such a scary place. She has been living with a wonderful foster family who have been helping her experience all the things she may not have had before -gentle voices, patience, comfort, routine and, most importantly, kindness. Fable is a very timid and shy girl. She doesn’t rush up to people or immediately show you her personality. She needs time to trust, and she’ll need someone who understands that her journey will be about small steps rather than big leaps. She can be unsure around men, although she is currently living alongside a male and is gradually learning that they can be safe too. Underneath that nervousness is a girl who wants a home of her own. She wants people to call her family. She wants a quiet, safe place where she can continue learning that she is loved and that she doesn’t have to be afraid. Fable will need: • A patient, understanding family • A calm home where she can settle at her own pace • Someone willing to continue building her confidence • Plenty of love, routine and reassurance • An understanding that trust takes time Fable will need someone who is willing to take things slowly and let her confidence grow, but for the right person, watching her blossom will be incredibly special. Fable seems to thrive when she is around other dogs, and we would really like to get her a home where there is another dog in the home.
