About Nanny **Adoption in progress**
Rhodesian ridgeback 5. 5 year old large female - meet beautiful mature nanny rescued out of the albury pound. The poor girl seems like she has never been trained even the basics because she wouldn’t sit for the carer. She is learning though and will need ongoing, consistent training which comes down to 10 minutes a day. Nanny had a very strong reaction to a stick being thrown and she dropped down to the ground. She was terrified. Sadly she might have been hit with sticks before to cause that kind of reaction, but she absolutely loves toys!when it comes to food she gets very excited. Wow. . . She goes crazy. She is like a vacuum cleaner with her dinner. . . She will steal food from another dog so it is important she is fed somewhere safe where she doesn’t feel like she has to scoff her food down. When there isn't food around she is an absolute delight. She is gentle and doesn't want to ever keep her carer out of her sight, meaning she follows him everywhere. She is house-trained and will bark if there is someone outside. However, she will only need to be told once and she will cease barking. At the park she is being kept on the lead, she walks beautifully - doesn't pull and just sticks to my side, as her recall needs work. The good thing with a food motivated dog like nanny is that training for recall is a lot easier! when she isn't doing any of the above she is sleeping.
