About Lyra

Meet Lyra!  This beautiful girl is looking for an active, experienced home where she can thrive.  She is a lovely, sweet-natured girl with a very giddy and playful personality.  Lyra absolutely loves attention and fuss and is always happy to be involved in whatever is going on.  She has lots of enthusiasm for life and certainly isn’t shy about showing it! Lyra can jump up quite a lot when she gets excited, so this is something her new adopter will need to be prepared to work on.  She is also very strong on the lead and will need someone confident and capable of handling her while they continue training.  As you would expect from a Malinois, Lyra is an active, energetic dog who will need plenty of physical exercise, mental stimulation and ongoing training and socialisation.  Due to the needs and characteristics of the breed previous knowledge and experience of the breed or similar high-drive working breeds is required. Underneath all that energy is an incredibly sweet girl who loves affection and companionship. She will need a private secure garden. Lyra has socialised well with other dogs, and is very giddy and playful with them.  We do feel she could potentially live with another dog of similar size and energy levels following a successful meet and greet. (must be neutered). No cats for her. As she came into the home as a stray, we have no previous history on her so would prefer any children in the home to be 16+ years. If you have a holiday booked in the next 3 months please wait until you return to apply for a dog. *Applications that are successful will be provided with further information on each dog to the best of the charity’s knowledge.
