Lexi is looking for her bestie.

Lexi is a 5yr young female and believed to be a pure breed German shepherd.

Lexi is very shy and timid of life, she will require a family that will allow her time to readjust and earn trust. Her first response is flight and she is easily frightened by loud noises and fast movements . I dont believe she has had much or any experience inside a home as all the normal household noises are new to her.

Same can be said with human and other dog interactions, she will come when called but is fearful of touch and doesn't yet understand the joy of getting petted.

Due to her limited human contact Lexi is learning to walk on lead, this will take a little time to learn as it's a whole new experience for her.

Lexi is currently fostered with 2 large breed dogs and 3 human children (ages 10, 6 and 4) she has not shown any fear based behaviour other than flight.

In the week or 2 that she has been with us Lexi is settling in and occasionally initiating play with the dogs and actively coming up for pats from us. She gently takes food from hands when offered but is still very flighty and weary of her surroundings.

Lexi would greatly benefit from having another dog sibling to learn from.

Lexi has not met many other dogs as yet due to lack of leash training and general fear of life, but she has not reacted in any way to those that have passed the house or were in the area at the time. We have not met any cats or smaller pets so am unsure of her reactions to them, however Lexis' personality is very shy and submissive so I believe she could be ok with smaller pets. (Under supervision )

Lexi is house trained but may take a day or two to readjust to new surroundings.

Once settled and learnt to trust Lexi will make an amazing addition to any family.

Lexi is located in Croydon and YOU MUST COMPLETED AN APPLICATION AT www.all4pawsdogrescue.com.au
