Stretch

My breed is unknown, and is listed as mixed, however I can tell you that I am tall and lanky with very soft ears and a beautiful face. I have been told I look quite stunning in the flesh.

I am a very quiet dog so will not disturb your neighbours - or interrupt your good night’s sleep! I love to be patted or brushed and will be happy to sit by your side for as long as you want to do this. I am just as content to lie in the backyard and sun bake or sleep if I am alone (especially when I have a bone to keep me occupied sometimes!).

I am very easy to walk on the lead as I amble along at your pace by your side most of the time. However, I am strong so if I want to smell something I may pull but respond well to being corrected especially if this training involves a small treat. And let me just say – I am very gentle when I eat a treat from your hand, and I don’t jump up when I see you or return to you.

My recall is really very good and I can be off lead when away from roads and in the parks and will come back to you when you call me. In fact, most of the time I will probably trot along 1-2 steps behind you like a shadow even though I am not on the lead. I absolutely love going for walks and have been out with other dogs of all shapes and sizes and had a great time. I look amazing when I do have spurts of running with my long legs and happy face. However, although I am a bigger dog I can be a bit timid of other dogs when not introduced properly. This means that I may growl or bark as I am frightened. I will need a Leader (owner) that knows how to respond immediately to my reaction and will take the time needed to train me and give me back my confidence.

I am excellent in the car. I either sit up and look out the window or lie down and have a snooze. I have a beautiful smile and a very happy and relaxed nature and would love to be part of your home and family.

Please feel free to drop a line to WDR and ask for me. Love Stretch
