About Bambi ~ 18mo Kelpie X(On Trial 6/11/21)
This gorgeous girl is Bambi, an 18 month old Kelpie X. She is an affectionate, energetic yet timid pup looking for a family who will include her in all family activities as she loves her human company.
A daily walk is not enough for Bambi who has energy to spare. She also needs a big back yard to run and play, as well as opportunities to expel her energy at places like the beach and off leash dog parks where she has good recall. Typical of a Kelpie, she likes to play ‘bitey face’ with other dogs. Bambi can be quite reactive to other dogs when she is on the lead and training will need to continued in this area. Once she has made friends with another dog, she loves to play chasing and will do so for ages. She also enjoys chew toys, pigs ears and is learning about enrichment toys that contain yummy treats ( these were quite scary to begin with).
Bambi can become anxious if left alone for long periods of time. For that reason she will need to go to a family where someone is home most of the time or there is another compatible dog for company. When people are home she needs to be able to be inside and happily curls up at your feet or next to you on the lounge if allowed. Crate training has been started but she still much prefers to sleep on the end of your bed. She is house trained. She is also very smart and very responsive to food rewards.
Bambi would benefit from being with a quiet and calm family as she does not respond well to loud noises and gets very nervous if she thinks she’s done something wrong. Her forever family also need to be committed to continuing her training and who understand that she will need exercise and mental stimulation. Her forever home will need secure fencing with no areas that could be dug underneath. While she doesn’t show any signs of wanting to escape, she does bark at other dogs passing by.
