Honey

Do blondes really have more fun? You’ll just have to meet our sweet Honey in person and decide for yourself!

This platinum bombshell loves her playtime and snuggles with her foster carers, and is kicking goals at home from managing a full workday alone (with her greyhound foster brother) to showing off her skills with training and learning new cues. She’s such a fun and quirky girl, and will delight a forever home with her silly antics like throwing toys for herself, tap dancing gallops when she’s excited, and suddenly plopping down for a nap mid-play - her carers describe her as “having ADHD” she will start doing something and then get distracted by a fly, or a new toy, or someone speaking. She can be a bit of a sock thief, and a “squidgy” shoe chomper (crocs and slides are her Achilles heel), but she shows no resource guarding and doesn’t mind sharing her treasures if asked to give them over.

Outside of the home, Honey is still working on growing her confidence. She’s not yet a pub dog or a cafe girly, and can be a bit scared of strange men, but although she can be cautious, she always approaches things with an inquisitive attitude - at first if something scary is passing her she might back away from it, but once it’s at a safe distance again she wants to watch and even follow it. Despite her timid nature outside, she is great on the lead and a good walker, her most favourite thing is to meet little dog friends - when she sees a chihuahua it’s a tail wagging delight that fills her with joy!

Because she still needs to take the outside world at her own pace, Honey’s perfect forever home is preferably in a quiet location with an outdoor area for her to comfortably toilet in - ideally there would be another confident dog in the home to help her on walks, or access to other dogs on a regular basis through friends/family. Although she can do workdays without her humans, Honey has never been home alone without another dog.

When asked what they like best about Honey, her foster carers said what a joy it has been to watch her learn and see how far she has come. From spending the first few days camping under a desk and not wanting to leave the study, in a few short weeks she has grown so much and become a vivacious cuddle-bug. A forever home with the patience to let her settle in will be rewarded with all the love and laughs that this girl has to give.
