Adopt Malibu

Collie · Female · Adult · 5 years

Malibu is a sweet but shy girl who came to the centre via an inspector as part of a multi dog prosecution case, after legal proceedings have been finalised we are now able to find Malibu the loving, stable home she deserves. Malibu has sadly led a very sheltered life before she came to the centre, this has left her quite nervous around new people and adjusting to new environments. Malibu is very anxious near busy roads and spaces, we have been working hard building up her confidence alongside our behaviourist. She will need experienced adopters who are willing to continue with her training. Adopters will need to do multiple meets at the centre with Malibu to build up a bond with her before taking her home. They must also agree to meet with the centres behaviourist to help make the transition in to a new home run as smoothly as possible. We are looking for adopters who live in a village / rural location, away from busy roads, she needs a home where she will have her own secure garden to play in as she will need to be kept on lead until her confidence has grown and she has settled. Once Malibu knows you she is an extremely, loving and loyal girl, she will always look to you for support when she is feeling a little anxious. Malibu will make a wonderful pet for the family lucky enough to adopt her Malibu is best suited to being the only dog in an adult only home.
