NEEDS AT LEAST ONE RESIDENT DOG IN THE HOME
GOOD WITH CATS
OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN
NEEDS PATIENT, LOVING FAMILY AS SHE IS A WORK IN PROGRESS
Halloween is a 6 year old Bichon Frise described by her foster mum as a happy delightful little girl whose quirky character is beginning to show as she gains her confidence. She is very much a work in progress and any potential adopters need to give her time and lots of love.
She has only been left with the other dogs for a few hours and been really happy to see her foster family return. Halloween or Hally as we call her is quite happy around the house and will sleep cuddled up to the other dogs for company.
She sleeps in the bedroom sometimes in a bed on the floor but will end up on the bed with the other dogs where she will sleep all night. If you don’t want her sleeping on your bed or sofa then she isn’t the dog for you as she will love her humans and want to be as close as possible to them.
Being handled and groomed is a work in progress.
Halloween has started to lay with her stomach exposed when sleeping on the pillows on the sofa which shows that she is beginning to trust.
Going for walks is also still a work in progress. She gets excited to have her harness on and jumps around with the other dogs but once she’s out in the big wide world she needs the others for confidence. Halloween is still very wary of people but is desperate to trust. If she sees people out on her walks she will freeze and try and run the other way.
Her medical history will be discussed with potential adopters
Halloween hasn’t met any children yet, but has been very wary of the children in the park. So, we would recommend older dog savvy children.
Halloween is in foster with a cat and is totally uninterested.
Halloween is still getting used to the noises around the house and any loud noises outside. Toilet training is a also a work in progress and she will go in the garden if taken often but she needs company as she doesn’t like being out there alone.
Travels well in the car using a seat belt restraint and will lay down quietly or sleep.
Halloween’s new home will need to be a quiet home where she will be allowed to take her time to gain her confidence and find her way. She will need at least another small dog that likes to cuddle up for company and if she had her choice, it would be another bichon. She could be in a home with older dog savvy children who will allow her time to relax and grow. She will need to time to adjust before being taken out or taken to be groomed and the groomer will need to be told that she’s a nervous little girl. Experience or knowledge of having a nervous rescue dog would be great, but not essential. She just needs time and love
