Bess

Meet Bess - a beautiful Shepherd mix with a gentle heart and so much love to give 🤍

At 5 years old, Bess is a sweet and sensitive soul who is looking for a patient, loving home where she can truly blossom. She's an active girl who enjoys getting out and about, but her favourite moments are the quiet ones-once she feels safe, her affectionate nature really shines through.

Bess can take a little time to build trust with new people, but with kindness and consistency, she forms strong, loyal bonds. Watching her come out of her shell is incredibly rewarding, and she'll be a devoted companion to those willing to give her that chance. She would benefit from continued work on her confidence and foundation skills to help her feel more secure in the world around her.

Bess is best suited to a family home with school-aged children who can understand her need for space while she settles in. She would prefer to be the only dog for now, so she can focus on building her social skills at her own pace. She has previously lived with a cat, though slow and thoughtful introductions would be important if she were to share a home with one again.

With moderate daily exercise and plenty of mental enrichment, Bess will thrive in a home that balances activity with calm reassurance. In return, she'll offer quiet companionship, gentle affection, and a bond that only deepens over time.

If you're looking for a loyal friend and are willing to help her grow in confidence, Bess could be the perfect addition to your family.
