Saffron
Saffron D2025—51
- Needs a resident dog
- Not cat or small furry tested
- Older dog savvy children
Saffron is a 7 Year old Cavashon described by her foster family as a nervous little lady. She is getting better every day and will now sit beside her foster family on the sofa. She is scared of being grabbed but will allow foster mum to pick her up for gentle cuddles and reassurance. Despite being nervous, she is a clever little girl and loves nothing more than sitting in a window or by a gate watching the world go by and getting used to the noises.
Saffron will give a little bark at new people entering the foster home but she is not a noisy dog. She will retreatingto a safe distance to work things out. Once she feels safe and is guided by a resident dog she will come and see what’s happening. This little lady’s confidence is growing day by day and she is now asking for attention and loves a gentle stroke and tickle under the chin. Treats are always at hand and given in moderation. She has given foster mum some lovely hand licks and waggly tails.
Saffron loves being in the garden. She is unsure of how to play with toys, foster mum has sat and rolled a ball, but she just looks at it as if to say what is that. However, we are confident that with a little more encouragement and a resident dog to show to her she will get there.
She hasn’t met any children in the foster home but could be homed with dog savvy children age 10+ who will give her space and not overpower her.
Not cat or small furry tested
She has worked so hard on her harness and lead walking in the garden that she has now graduated to going for short walks outside but she needs to be with another dog to feel safe and to learn from.
She sleeps all night in the kitchen on the dog bed with the other dog in the home. During the day, it’s anywhere she feels comfortable settling down.
She is now toilet trained and been going in the garden with the other dogs.
Saffron is fine to eat around other dogs as long as they leave her alone. She does however, prefer to eat away from them if she had a choice. She gets excited when she sees the treat bag and will take treats gently from your hand.
Saffron needs a a quiet family home with a resident dog who can help her learn and settle. She needs time to be allowed to adjust and a family who will help her practice her lead walking in the garden.
