Heulog *****ADOPTED*****
Heulog D2024-121
- Could be an only dog
- Could also live with another dog
- Dog savvy children over 12
- Would benefit from attending puppy class
Heulog is a 8 month old Bichon who was initially nervous when she arrived in foster. Since being in foster she has improved greatly and although still a little nervous and skittish it turns out she loves people. She follows foster mum around the house and garden and loves attention and is beginning to get excited when she sees her foster family. She is now enjoying cuddles and is relaxing into it.
Signs of a normal carefree puppy are beginning to emerge and she’s starting to play and will suddenly burst into a short zoomy session. She is showing an interest in toys and she particularly likes a good strong chew. She is still shy with strangers but in time this will improve.
Not cat or small furry tested but is young enough to learn.
Heulog is still somewhat nervous so older children 12 and up would be ok but it really depends on the child’s experience of dogs as she’s not a dog that will immediately want to play, cuddle and go out for walks, she will need patience and a quieter home at first so no very small children.
Heulog has just started to show an interest in toys especially strong chews and stuffed toys, which she will also happily unstuff. She will play with the other dogs in her foster home some of which are much larger, she was initially frightened around them and would bark every time she saw hem but now they’re friends although Heulog is not brave enough yet to play.
Heulog now walks on a harness and lead and is enjoying learning that the outside world is safe. She has been walking in quiet areas and building up bit by bit to busier areas.
Heulog sleeps in a crate with her foster sister which is inside a puppy pen, the crate has been her safe space since she arrived in foster and she will need a similar safe space in her new home at least until she has her bearings. I suspect she is also the kind of dog who would eventually like to sleep close to her people when she feels safe around them.
Heulog is house trained as long as she has regular access to the garden. She sleeps all night in her crate with no accidents.
She has been fine eating around others but they are fed separately as she is a very greedy fast eater and will finish anothers food as she is much slower. They have treats together and are very well behaved.
Heulog will need a calm home with kind and patient pawrents who are home most of the time and who are willing to go at her pace to help her feel safe and comfortable. As she is showing herself to be a people lover, in the right circumstances she could be homed as an only dog as long as she has lots of doggy friends. She can also be homed with a similar sized dog who won’t mind sharing the attention with her and is happy to be a friendly role model. She is a very gentle and kind little girl who’s decided she rather likes the love and attention she gets from good humans and is looking for very best home where she can love those humans in return and put all the bad memories behind her.
