Lizzie

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Lizzie is a medium sized crossbreed aged around two to three years old. Not yet cat tested. Needs a resident dog. Adult only home needed. Lizzie was one of multiple dogs seized by the police in Romania from a hoarder who kept about ninety dogs in a caravan and a car. She has been waiting in a private shelter since she was a pup for an offer of adoption to no avail. Lizzie arrived in our care a few months ago and was adopted shortly after. Sadly she was returned to our care a few weeks ago. She’d been doing so well there and they loved her but unfortunately got protective of her female owner against visitors to the home. We feel that she now needs a home with another dog in the hope that she doesn’t feel solely responsible to keep her family safe. We have waited a few weeks to repost her for adoption to reassess her. She has been an absolute joy back in her foster pack. She is friendly and playful with everyone and loves to play with the other dogs and is an absolutely perfect house guest. She will need an adult only environment with experiences adopters. Lizzie fostered Norwich Norfolk If you are interested please message or call between 9am to 5pm Mon – Fri or 9am to 4pm Sat. . Adoption Donation Fees are Puppies already neutered and all adult dogs: £430. Un-neutered puppies on spay/neuter contracts: £530 (You will receive a £100 rebate once you send us proof of neutering). Senior dogs (10+ years): £150–£250 (depending on age and individual needs). Adoption Terms & Conditions When you adopt a Safe Rescue dog, you MUST use a slip lead. This will keep your dog safe: your new dog will be nervous and will not trust you, and you will not know which situations might upset your dog. If your dog panics, then a slip lead is the only way to prevent your dog from escaping (many dogs can escape from a collar and/or harness). It will take AT LEAST 3-6 months for your dog to settle-in and for you to know your dog fully (longer for nervous dogs). The slip lead must ALWAYS be used during this settling-in period. Even after your dog is settled, it is safest to use the slip lead in situations where your dog may become scared (e.g. visiting new places, around unfamiliar people, at the vet), and it situations where unexpected triggers might happen (e.g. around bonfire night). Nervous dogs may always need to wear a slip-lead as a back-up safety measure. The slip lead is a safety device and must NEVER be used as a training tool. Using the lead to apply pressure to the dog’s neck is damaging. If your dog pulls on the lead, then we can advise you on training methods that avoid harm. Once your dog is settled, you may want to consider using a harness (together with the slip lead) if your dog is comfortable with being handled when it is fitted. Most harnesses are not escape-proof, but harnesses with a strap behind the ribcage (e.g. Ruffwear Webmaster or Perfect Fit Harnesses) are safer. Retractable / extendable leads must never be used on our dogs. Adopted dogs must be collected from the rescue and transported straight home in a secure metal crate. Fences and gates must be 5foot minimum in height and secure. Lizzie is a medium sized crossbreed aged around two to three years old. Not yet cat tested. Needs a resident dog. Adult only home needed.
