Nancy Bell D2024-132
- Needs a resident dog to learn from
- Fine with cats
- Older dog savvy children
Nancy is a 6 year old very cute Caveshon who is currently very shy and anxious around people. She prefers to be with other dogs as the humans she’s encountered in her life so far have not been very kind to her. She has come a long way and is now ready to find that very special person who will show her not all humans are bad. Currently if approached she will sometimes move away but this is getting less and less and she is starting to enjoy being touched. She has met a few people outside the home and has allowed them to touch her but you can see she’s uncomfortable.
Nancy enjoys snuggling in a dog bed with the other dogs and loves to be outside in the garden which is currently her happy place. Although at night when she’s been to toilet, she cries to come back in so she can get back to her nice warm bed. She’s starting to realise that living in a house is lovely.
Nancy is absolutely fine with cats.
She can be rehomed with older teenage children.
Nancy has approached the dog toy box and sniffed and shown some interest in the toys. She watches the other dogs play fetch but hasn’t yet played, but were sure she will eventually.
Nancy will allow you to put a harness on but when you initially approach her with it, she will try to run off. This is being worked on with lots of praise and rewards. Out on walks she follows the others and gets her confidence from them but will stop and freeze if unsure. She just needs encouragement and time to decide if its safe to move on.
Nancy feels safest sleeping with the other dogs on foster mums bed .
Nancy has been absolutely brilliant with her toilet training. She follows the other dogs and goes outside, if the door is closed, she will go to the door to let you know she needs to go out.
Nancy will approach the other dogs bowls and has probably been used to her food being thrown on the floor and then all the dogs scrambling for food and eating from the floor all together. She’s finding it difficult getting used to eating out of a bowl so is currently using a flat plate or the food is put on the floor. This is being worked on and if another dog approaches she will just walk away so she is being supervised to make sure she’s eating enough.
Nancy needs a calm, quite home with patient and kind humans. A home with a special furry friend or two so that she can continue to learn from and go to them for comfort. They will show her that not all humans are bad and that they can be trusted. Nancy is happiest when she’s with other dogs and her tail constantly wags. She will need a kind and very patient person who has the time and love to allow Nancy to get used to her new world in her own time. Trusting is going to take time but the reward will be a life time of unconditional love and the knowledge that you will have helped heal a very precious little dog.
