Bronte

Bronte loves people...both big and small. She is very gentle with young children, and doesnt object when they use her as a pillow or pretend she is a pony.
She is good with other dogs, however she can try to dominate them at times...however she has never shown any sign of aggression or bared her teeth at all.
Bronte is great with chickens...but beware of leaving the door of the chook pen open as Bronte likes to sneak in when she thinks you're not looking and steal an egg or 2 as she loves raw eggs...
She is food trained and will eat on command
She is curious of cats but never bothered to chase them or show aggression towards them.
She is an inside/outside dog, and likes nothing more than a good scratch and to lay at your feet or by your side.
Bronte loves the water...loves to run on the beach and splash in the waves, she also enjoys her bath and will happily stand there as you run the hose on her and lather her up.
Bronte came to us with severe anxiety. She would cower when you picked up anything like a broom, mop..etc. She was also scared of loud noises such as the lawn mower and whipper snipper, and would run away and hide. She also hates to be restrained in any way. I have been working on relieving her anxiety by showing her that there is nothing to fear with loud noises and big sticks. She now happily walks by my side when i mow the lawn without any fear.
Bronte still shows signs of anxiety and will cry intermittently for reassurance. She requires lots of love and support to settle her down, especially when she is introduced to a new environment.
Bronte would make the perfect companion to both the young and young at heart, all she needs is to be given the opportunity to show how good a dog she is when she is relaxed and given attention.
