About Flossy
Hi, I'm Flossy.
I'm a quiet, gentle girl with a sweet nature and a heart that's just looking for someone to love.
I'm still learning that the world is a safe place, so I can be a little timid at first. Sudden movements can startle me, and I like to take life at a slower pace. Once I get to know you though, I'll happily follow you from room to room, keeping you company while you go about your day. I like to think of myself as your little helper.
I'm definitely the indoor lap dog type. I'm not much of a barker, and toys haven't really won me over yet. I'd much rather spend my time curled up beside you for a cuddle or simply being wherever you are. Your company is my favourite thing.
I've been told I get along well with other dogs, and I'm toilet trained too, which makes settling into a new home that little bit easier.
I came from a farm, but I wasn't suited to life around the horses. My owners made the difficult decision to take me to the vet to say goodbye. Thankfully, the vet saw what a lovely girl I really am and knew I deserved another chance. They contacted GPAWS, and that's how I found my way into foster care.
Being left alone or riding in the car can make me feel a little anxious, but that's only because I love being close to my people. I'm still building my confidence every day. I do seem to feel more comfortable around women at first, although I'm slowly warming up to the man in my foster home with a little patience and kindness.
I haven't learnt all the basics like "sit" and "stay" just yet, but I'm eager to please and with gentle, positive training I'm sure I'll get there.
If you're looking for a calm, loving companion who will quietly follow you around the house, enjoy peaceful adventures, and curl up beside you for cuddles at the end of the day, I might just be your perfect match.
All I need is someone willing to be patient with me while I learn that this big world isn't so scary anymore. I promise I'll love you with all my heart.-
