About Stormy Seas
Girls girls girls. Are you looking for a bestie?
Look no further as I would like to introduce our beautiful girl, Stormy Seas.
Wolfhound x Labrador
32 ki Stormy Seas will be adopted to a female only home due to her extreme fear of males.
One on one she is filled with affection and love for her human. She bonds easily to her female carer. A loving affectionate sweetheart she will shower you with cuddles and wet nose nuzzles. She will become a girl's best friend and will share your love of pupachino’s, beach, Netflix’s and lazy couch days. She loves to be spoiled just like any girl does and this girl totally deserves a loving home
Stormy has unfortunately had some trauma in her life and is extremely cautious around males, she will go up to them out at a park for a sniff but not for a pat. Inside the house she will stay away, retreat and be extremely fearful.
Stormy will welcome you every morning with lots of tail wags and boundless energy, being young she is still quite excitable and will jump up when you arrive home or see her in the morning but we have found holding a short stick stops her from this behavior immediately.(Absolutely not for physical use) but for whatever reason holding this will stop her from jumping in her excitement when she first greets you! We strongly believe that Stormy was manhandled by a male in her previous home and it seems this is why she has a dislike of boys and men until she can trust them which can take a while........ You can’t resist this beauty. She will never say no to a cuddle on the couch or in bed. She will shower you with affection, she will try and sit or lie all over you just to be close. Stormy is such a happy girl in a home she feels comfortable.
Stormy has a fairly good recall, she does like to say hello to all dogs down at the oval
When it’s time to go out Stormy doesn’t really like putting on her harness, I think from previous trauma as she will jump on the couch and shy away and submit on her back. Once her harness is on though she’s excited to head out the door.
She travels well in the car and jumps in eagerly as she knows it means a trip to the park with her friends. When home she is sometimes hesitant to jump back out so her foster mum just gives her a bit of extra time.
She is treat oriented so ongoing training will be fairly easy.
Stormy walks well on the lead but if sees another dog may bark and pull as she wants to say hi. She makes a great running buddy as she is quite happy to trot along beside you on lead. She likes to stretch her legs at the oval with a rough and tumble or chase with similar size dogs. In the dog world she is a social puppafly. Another one of her favorite outdoor activities is water. Spending hot days wallowing in the shell pool but also water zoomies in the local park creek chasing and splashing around with her buddies.
During the day she is happy to laze outside with her furry mates and enjoy a bit of R and R on the deck. She rarely barks and has been content outside during the day with another dog. She enjoys treats and playing with toys, has had some resources guarding so it’s best to let her be when she is eating or enjoying a treat as if you try and remove it she can snap.
Currently Stormy is living with three other dogs so hasn’t been tested on her own. We would like her rehomed where people are not away from home for long periods. Stormy must be in a family where she can be inside when they are home as she craves affection and attention. She just wants to hang in her girls gang
Ideal home
A home with at least one or two females in the house. No cat home please
A home where her family are committed to ongoing training with patience and love
Possibly a male dog of similar size for company Any males will need to be introduced slowly until she feels comfortable
A home near water would be a bonus
Stormy comes with one of our adoption packs including' Harness,Lead
