About Sharon
Sharon is ready to start taking EOI, please note before going any further that she will only go to a home with maremma experience and land.
Sharon is a beautiful girl and since coming into care she is starting to come out of her shell and seek affection.
Before coming into care she was housed with her siblings on property where they were in training to protect sheep and chickens.
True to her maremma nature Sharon will guard the area she is in, she will lay around and survey her surroundings and let out a loud bark to alert if something isn’t right.
Sharon will need further training of course be that obedience or training to protect stock. Please note that she is only 6 months old so can’t just be left out with stock on her own.
While in care Sharon has been sleeping with her siblings in a dog run, she has met children and while cautious she was well mannered.
Sharon is working on lead manners and is doing well with this. She has been around other dogs and has met the farm cats (supervision is of course recommended with any new environment)
If you are looking for a pet that will guard stock at the same time, Sharon might be the girl for you.
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.

Once approved you will be contacted by a team member and can organise a time best suited to meet with the carer and dog. If you have other dogs they must also be at the meeting, including any children in the immediate family.
Before applying please consider the following:
