About Dolly
Dolly is looking for a foster family or adopter that has an interest in daily dog training.
Have you an interest in dog training, would you like a dog that has received some great foundation training, and has a good relationship with a trainer that can offer ongoing support (at the new owners expense), we can pass on her training reports.
Her trainer has been working on; crate training, body awareness, respecting boundaries, being ok when left, place, confidence building, touch, basic obedience, loose leash walking, controlling excitement, respecting personal space, name recognition and recall, and much more. Don’t let this long list fool you, she will need ongoing training to build on these foundations and to learn more, Dolly is looking for a new owner or foster carer willing and able and has the time needed to follow up with training.
Dolly is loveable, affectionate and loves her people, and playing with other dogs. She travels well in the car and loves to go on errands and car trips with her people. Dolly was rescued very malnourished and not knowing how to fit in the human world. The trainer has been working on her stubbornness and separation anxiety. Dolly can live with cats.
Dolly’s new family of foster family will need,
- To want a moderate energy dog,
- To have time to continue Dolly’s daily training and someone home often.
- To have experience or interest in dog training or prepared to have lessons with the current dog trainer.
- To continue with Dolly’s Crate training,
- Preference would be to have a playful desexed adult large male dog, as a playmate and role model to Dolly living in the home.
- To have a medium to large yard with secure fences and gates. A bit of property would be great.
A few words from her trainer “Dolly has demonstrated a terrific level of adaptability and resilience, and gained a newfound sense of confidence and serenity.”
The breed is to the best of our knowledge from the information we've been given.
*PLEASE read the ‘profile’ thoroughly before enquiring in detail.*
*Please only apply if you are ready to meet and adopt this pet now, and if all family members are in support of the adoption.*
Medical notes
Dolly has a noticeable lump on her head, we are unsure what cause it but the vet said it feels like a calcification, and is nothing to concerned about.
Adoption details
Please note- we do not work on a first in best dressed basis, we assess all applications to choose the home that we believe will best match the animal.
If you believe one of our animals would be a good match for your home please send us a detailed email us with some information about the people and any other animals in your home as well as the type of lifestyle you can offer a new rescue pet. We are volunteerswho run the rescue around families, paid employment and other commitments so your patience is appreciated.
We do require any other dogs in your home meeting our foster animal before they head home with you. This enables us to assess their compatibility and helps prevent them being returned and creating more confusion/insecurities for the foster animal.
All our animals are available for a two week trial with full refund. They are also covered by a lifetime return policy. If you ever find yourself unable to care for or keep your pet please contact us and they will come back into our care, this is a condition of our Adoptions.
