Adopt Autumn

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 7 months

Autumn is a very sweet bouncy puppy that is ready for her new fresh start. She is a 5 month old puppy who came into us from another Rescue centre. Autumn has a lot of love to give and adores people. She loves treats which certainly helps with her training and she is fond of doing basic training with a clicker. Autumn is learning the basics (sit, down, off etc). Due to being a puppy in kennels, she can get very overexcited when seeing people or playing with them and she does attempt to mouth. Thankfully, she loves frozen meat treats and frozen soft rags which really helps with calming her down in these circumstances. She also loves playing with toys which is perfect to help her redirect her energy onto. She particularly enjoys playing with squeaky toys as she can play with those by herself, but also enjoys playing with you too with any type of toy. We think she will love to be part of a family with children aged 12+. She does tend to jump up and can be quite over exuberant if overexcited when cuddling her on the sofa! We are working with her with this and she’s been doing better at not jumping up and instead doing other things that are more rewarding to her. She is quite an outgoing puppy and puts herself out of her comfort zone, especially on walks and when going into new areas. When meeting new people, she can be very excited but other times quite nervous. She prefers to go over to people instead of them coming over to her, and not to be stroked over the head. Also, she has shown some appeasement behaviours with some staff and vets, which adopters will need to recognise and be able to give her space when this happens. She would benefit from puppy training classes, and would thrive in smaller classes. She gets very excited upon seeing other dogs on walks (pully on the lead, whining and wanting to go and say hello) so would probably appreciate a doggy friend. She would appreciate a home where someone is around most of the day to help meet her puppy needs. She tends to settle and play in her kennel when left alone, but if left alone too long she starts to whine and bark. She will need help increasing her ‘left alone’ time. Overall, Autumn is a healthy, happy medium sized pup with a lot of potential for the right home.
