Bee

I could live with dog-savvy teens who respect my space. I would like to be homed with another canine friend. I've not met cats so I'm unsure! I would like a secure garden to spend time in. I haven't tried walks just yet and will find this a bit overwhelming at the moment. I have never lived in a home so I will need help to learn house training. I am spayed and ready to find my forever home. Bee is a gentle, shy little lady who has come into our care from a breeder. She is still a timid girl who can find the world around her a little overwhelming, but she has been making some lovely progress since arriving with us and is really trying hard to be brave. Bee can be handled and picked up as long as you take things slowly and carefully. She is beginning to show us that she wants to build a bond with people, and she has started getting very excited to see her favourite people in the mornings, running over to say hello and even giving little kisses on their fingers! She is still a little unsure about accepting fusses, but we think she is getting closer to letting her guard down and learning that human attention can be a lovely thing. Bee has always lived with the company of other dogs and gets on wonderfully with her kennel friends. She relies on their company for comfort and reassurance, so she will need at least one kind and confident resident dog in her new home who she can learn from, follow and look to as she settles into home life. We think having a friendly dog or two around will really help her find her confidence and make the transition into a home much easier. Bee has never lived in a home before, so there is still lots for her to learn. She has recently had her first little introduction to wearing a harness and did brilliantly! Although she only managed a few steps, she was happy to have a sniff around, take some treats and explore without becoming overwhelmed. We will continue building on this little by little, and her adopters will need to be patient as she learns about lead walking, house training and all the other things that come with home life. Bee will be looking for a calm and quiet home with adopters who have experience with worried ex-breeding dogs and understand that she will need time to settle and gain confidence at her own pace. We think she will really benefit from being away from the busy kennel environment and having the chance to learn about life in a quieter setting. She can live with sensible teenagers who understand that she will need to be given space and allowed to settle without pressure. Bee is such a little sweetheart, and it is lovely to see her starting to show us the happy little girl hiding underneath all those worries. She is trying so hard to be brave, and we think she has so much potential to blossom in the right home. With an experienced ex-breeding dog home, kind canine companions to guide her and plenty of love and reassurance, we are sure Bee will make a wonderful addition to the family. Please don't keep this lovely girl waiting any longer for her chance at home life!
