Evian

Bichon Frisé · Female · Adult · 4 years

13-08-26 Evian is a sweet little lady who has come to us from a breeder. When she first arrived, she was very flighty and would grumble when approached out of fear. However, as she has spent more time with us, begun to trust the people around her, and settled into a routine, she has come on beautifully and has really let her sweet personality shine through. Evian is now starting to come out of her shell and is beginning to approach us on her own. She is becoming much easier to handle and is showing just how much she could thrive in a loving, patient home. She is a sweet little girl who simply needs the chance to build her confidence at her own pace. She can live with older, dog-savvy teens, aged 16+ who understand that she needs time to settle in at her own pace. Evian will need at least one kind and confident resident dog in her new home that she can rely on as she learns about life in a home. She will need patient adopters who understand that she has never experienced normal home life before and who will help her with house training, walking on a lead, and all the other basics. However, given the progress she has already made in such a short time, we don't think it will take Evian long to blossom into a wonderful companion in the right home. Evian has arrived with a fused hind leg. She has been assessed by our vet and this doesn't appear to be causing her any issues. She gets around well and shows no signs of pain or discomfort. She does walk with an abnormal gait, as she is not able to bend this leg, but this doesn't seem to bother her. Although she seems to cope fine now, we are unsure how this may effect her in the future. It is possible that she will always manage perfectly well but there is also the possibility in the future she may need further investigations, x-rays or to visit a specialist, which would not be covered by insurance. Evian has a travel document. This dog can be homed with a resident dog.
