Pearl’s foster mum describes her simply as a “sweet little thing” — and that seems to sum her up beautifully.
Pearl was reluctantly surrendered and has experienced some enormous changes in her young life. In the short time she's been in our care, she has adjusted well, though is understandably still a little timid. What she needs now is a kind, reassuring home where she can settle at her own pace and discover that life is safe and predictable again.
❤️ A LOVELY LITTLE COMPANION
Pearl loves cuddles and pats and is already showing what an affectionate little companion she is.
She is:
✓ House-trained
✓ Great with children
✓ Good with other dogs
✓ Good with cats
✓ Affectionate and gentle
✓ Happiest when included as part of the family
🐾 ABOUT CAVOODLES
Cavoodles are a cross between the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and Poodle, combining two breeds well known for their intelligence, affectionate nature and strong attachment to their people.
They generally thrive on companionship and enjoy being involved in family life. Their coats can vary considerably, but regular brushing and professional grooming are usually part of life with a Cavoodle.
🏡 PEARL’S IDEAL HOME
Pearl would suit a warm, settled household where she will be treated as a much-loved member of the family.
A home with children, another friendly dog or a cat could all work well for her. More important than any particular household configuration is a gentle approach, plenty of companionship and people who understand that Pearl has had a lot of change in a short time.
She has already shown that she has all the makings of a delightful family companion.
