Adopt a Dog

Sally

Age: 2

Breed: Border Collie x Labrador

Vaccinations: Up to date

Suitable environment: Adult Only Home, Possibly Dog Friendly: see description, No Cats

Personality

Sally came to us last year as she had an altercation with the other dog in the home and the owners thought having her put to sleep was the only option. Luckily she ended up coming to us for rehabilitation as she was so young she didn’t deserve to die.

Kennel staff have become very fond of Sally and she’s really begun to shine since coming to us.

Health & Behaviour

When Sally first arrived with us, she was unapproachable and absolutely terrified. She would kennel guard, snap and shake in fear. After an hour or so she started warming up to the team, rolling on her back for belly rubs and her puppy like behaviour started to show. She quickly built bonds with people in the team and we really saw a different side to her.

Don’t let this put you off – as once Sally knows you she is the most affectionate and loving girl ever.

Perfect Match?

Sally needs a home with no children. As she’s so nervous she can panic when put into difficult situations. She can still occasionally guard but this is only ever over food, and a lot of the time with a stern voice she will leave and become submissive. The improvements she’s made since coming to us is amazing – she really is a different dog. However her new home will have to work on this and show Sally she isn’t the boss.

In return you’ll have a loyal companion who really will adore you!

Sally is currently in a foster home on the Wirral
