ONLY APPLICATIONS WITH ANOTHER FRIENDLY DOG WILL BE CONSIDERED.
Hello. My name is Delilah and I am a gentle pup.
I am very, very sociable with other dogs of any age, size or energy level. I currently live with little Jack Russells and a big Boxer and play perfectly with them all. I REALLY need a friendly dog in my new family to help build my confidence. Do you have a dog who would play chasey and tug of war with me? I would love that!
When it comes humans... well, I am rather shy. I had little to no human contact when I was younger, so I am still getting used to being patted and given affection. You can see by the looks on my face that I really love humans, but I need a special family who will understand that I need time to get to know and trust them before I will come up to them for pats.
I sleep in a crate indoors at night and when my foster mother tucks me in, she pats and pats me. I love ear rubs, under my chin rubbed and have just discovered belly rubs too! I feel safe in my crate so am comfortable with any pats I am given in there. Oh, I should mention that sometimes I have the most adorable little snore. My foster mum loves the gentle sound and smiles because she knows it means that I am relaxed and content.
I walk very well on a lead with the other dogs in my foster home, no pulling or tugging. I don't react at all to other dogs on our walks, but can be nervous when strange people want to pat me. For some reason, I think it's my gentle mushy face, everyone we meet on walks insists on coming up to say hello. I do try hard to be brave. Children are not as scary to me as big grown ups so they can always pat me on our outings.
I am even good in my bath. Actually, I quite like my bath, but don't tell Foster Mum or she would bath me all the time! She has to lift me in but it's all enjoyment from then on.
I nearly forgot to tell you that my favourite place is in the car. I adore going on car rides and watching the world go by through the window.
Are you the special family who will give me time and understanding to grow and blossom into a confident girl? I can't wait to meet you.
Love,
Delilah
