Chili - ist auf einer Pflegestelle

Female · Senior · 9 years

Chili - a watchful and people-oriented Shepherd, who wants to work with her human. Chili has been guarding a property for many years and lived quite isolated. Despite this, she is easy to manage and control. She enjoys walks. She doesn't cause trouble, doesn't attack anyone and also walks past other dogs without problems. Chili likes to work with her human and please him. She still occasionally has the idea to chase a mouse. If you tell her to stop, she accepts it. Her earlier pronounced territorial behavior can now be well controlled. Visitors can be received without problems. Chili shows good compatibility with other dogs. Being alone, or the separation from her human, is still a bit difficult for her. She is also stressed by car rides at the moment. We are already working on this and want to give her the necessary time. We are looking for a home for Chili, where she can enjoy her twilight years, get enough exercise and activity and simply be with her human. If you would like to give a home to an older, watchful but manageable Shepherd, you are welcome to get to know Chili.

menschenbezogen, möchte mit ihrem Menschen zusammenarbeiten, wachsam Über Chili - ist auf einer Pflegestelle Chili hat viele Jahre ein Grundstück bewacht und lebte recht isoliert. Trotzdem lässt sie sich gut führen und kontrollieren. Spaziergänge machen ihr Freude. Dabei sucht sie keinen Ärger, greift niemanden an und läuft auch an anderen Hunden problemlos vorbei. Chili möchte gerne mit ihrem Menschen zusammenarbeiten und ihm gefallen. Hin und wieder kommt bei ihr noch die Idee auf, einem Mäuschen hinterherzugehen. Wenn man ihr sagt, dass sie das lassen soll, akzeptiert sie das auch. Ihr früher ausgeprägtes territoriales Verhalten lässt sich inzwischen gut steuern. Besuch kann bei uns ohne Probleme empfangen werden. Mit anderen Hunden zeigt Chili sich gut verträglich. Das Alleinsein, beziehungsweise die Trennung von ihrem Menschen fällt ihr noch etwas schwer. Auch Autofahren stresst sie momentan noch. Daran arbeiten wir bereits und möchten ihr dabei die nötige Zeit geben. Für Chili wünschen wir uns ein Zuhause, in dem sie ihren Lebensabend genießen kann, ausreichend Bewegung und Beschäftigung bekommt und einfach bei ihrem Menschen sein darf. Wer einer älteren, wachsamen, aber gut führbaren Schäferhündin ein Zuhause geben möchte, darf Chili gerne kennenlernen.
