Nina

Nina is the tiniest, cutest little button you could ever meet!

This little cherub is a happy, affectionate girl who loves cuddles & sitting on laps. \ She loves being carried around like a baby, & being showered with kisses & cuddles from her humans :)

Nina just adores being out & about. She looooves going for walks & rides in the car, & makes new friends everywhere she goes. She is in her element when on outings, & her little tail does not stop wagging.

She adores people and is soooo happy to see her foster mum when she gets home, that she excitedly twirls around & around in a circle on the spot, so cute!

Nina would love a home with someone who is at home a lot, where she could spend all her time inside with her human, with someone who could take her with them on their daily outings. She is housetrained, & very well behaved in the house, so is also fine to leave inside alone at home at times when you are unable to take her with you.

Nina is good with cats & small to medium dogs (as she is so tiny, she is understandably scared of larger dogs), but she doesn’t really mind whether they are there or not, so could also live happily as your only furbaby.

Nina has a common behavioural issue where she aggressively guards her bed.
She growls & barks when approached when she is in any of her beds. When she first arrived from the pound as a petrified little girl, she also sometimes nipped if when in her resting place. With the implementation of a very simple desensitization technique, she has dramatically improved in the very short time she has been in our care and she now rarely does this. This only happens when she is in her bed, at all other times she is a loving little poppet. However, this may reoccur as she settles into her new home, \ so she will need an understanding owner who is willing, able & comfortable to live with this, & continue to work on this issue with Nina. .

Nina has recently had surgery to correct luxating patellas (knee caps which move in & out of their normal location). This was done in order to decrease the chance of Nina developing arthritis later on and she is now very healthy and recovering perfectly. She should be checked for any signs of arthritis at her regular vet check.

Nina is currently in foster care in the Reservoir area.
