Zola is a beautiful 4 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel described by her foster mum as a beautiful gentle soul. She’s a very nervous little girl who is slowly adapting to home life but it is very much at her own pace. In her foster home she has a safe space which she knows is hers where she can happily sit and watch the world go by while she assesses if it is safe for her to re-join. It’s important for her to have a safe space as it helps her gain her confidence.
Zola has no known health issues and has not been cat or small furry tested.
Zola likes to be near her foster family but only if everyone is calm and quiet. She needs to feel safe while she decides if she wants to come and see you. Once she knows you won’t hurt her, she will happily sit by you and fall asleep. She’s very gentle and wary but also curious for a bit of attention. She likes to be involved with the other dogs in the home and watches them for confidence. She’s a pleasure to have around and it’s wonderful seeing her slowly opening up and trusting her foster family.
As gorgeous as she is, when she is sleeping be aware that she has a very loud snore. She’s learning every day and making great progress in the home but it’s very slow. She needs time, reassurance and tenderness.
Zola has not been tested around young children but from her behaviour any loud noises or sudden movement scares her. She’s nervous around foster mums dog savvy daughter so older dog savvy children or an adult only home would probably be best for Zola.
Zola is absolutely no trouble in the home there were a few toileting accidents when she arrived but once she got into a routine and was encouraged to go out to the garden often, she has much improved. Zola loves a nice comfy bed and seems to have one in almost every room of her foster home. Her bed is her safe place and she goes to it when she’s feeling a little unsure. She hasn’t chewed anything but does like to collect socks or items of clothing and carries them to her bed for comfort.
Zola hasn’t been in the big outdoors yet as she hasn’t had both injections but lead work has started in the garden but again this is a slow process and it needs to be at her own pace so she sees it as a positive experience
Zola needs a quiet, calm home where she can have lots of love and encouragement but it needs to be done slowly and at her pace. She has not been left on her own as she was upset when her foster family tried. She will need a calm resident dog who can help her learn that people are good.
Zola needs a home with calm understanding pawrents who can help her become the dog she was meant to be. She needs a resident dog to follow and learn that humans are good and tummy tickles are the best. She needs a safe place in her home where she can sit and watch the world go by till she feels safe.
