Adopt Dolly

Poodle · Female · Young · 3 years

Dolly is a bright, cheeky little character! Full of curiosity, she loves to know what is happening around her and can often be found watching the world closely before deciding to join in on the fun. She adores fuss and attention, bouncing up with a waggy tail to say hello, and when excitement takes over she is known for joyful zoomies. Dolly is also a huge fan of toys and enjoys playing both independently and with other dogs, bringing plenty of fun and laughter wherever she goes. With her confidence growing all the time, Dolly will make a wonderfully entertaining and affectionate companion for adopters who enjoy a playful dog with lots of personality. Home requirements: Dolly and Elvis are a lovely young pair of Poodle crosses, who need patient adopters that can introduce the world gently and at their pace. A secure garden is essential so they can enjoy safe home and garden time while they settle, build confidence and continue their housetraining. Neither has experience of walking on leads, so any future adventures will need to begin slowly at home once trust has been built, with road walks, busier areas and car travel introduced gradually over time. They would be happiest in a smaller residential or rural location rather than a busy town or city, with low visitor levels initially while they adjust to homelife. They could live with sensible secondary school aged children who understand the importance of giving them space, but most importantly, they need adopters who appreciate that confidence grows best through kindness, patience and consistency.
