Adopt Molly

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Molly is a 3-year-old German Shepherd cross who needs an adult-only home due to her worried nature around new people and dogs. She requires minimal leaving hours and would thrive in a quiet but active home in a lower populated area. Molly can see dogs at distance and walk parallel but doesn't appreciate close encounters, so she needs a single-dog household with minimal visitors. She's a wonderful cuddle bug who loves adventures and training. With patient owners using positive reinforcement and treats, she has fantastic potential. Once she knows you, she becomes very affectionate and demands cuddles.

Read original (en)

Molly can walk alongside other dogs and shows lots of positive playful behaviours, but she generally doesn't enjoy close company, so she is looking to be the only dog in the home. Molly is looking for an adult only home as she continues building her confidence around people. She would thrive in a reasonably busy home, willing to continue her training and take her on lots of adventures. She settles really well in her kennel and we believe she could cope with around 4-6hours alone, as long as this is built up slowly and gradually in the home. She has an active mind (and body) and would benefit strongly from a new family to keep stimulating her mentally, teaching her new tricks and help her flourish into the well-rounded dog she is becoming! Home requirements: Meet our striking girl Molly a 3 year old German Shepherd cross with bags of potential! She was quite wary of new people and dogs to begin with, but has come on leaps and bounds in this area. She can still get spooked by unexpected encounters with people, but if allowed to approach on her own accord, she'll soon be rolling around on the ground and asking for a fuss. She is super smart and knows numerous helpful skills, like recall, as well as a bunch of fun tricks. Molly would love to be in a home who can keep working on these areas and continue building her skills! Molly is full of life, love and playful spirit, enjoying squeaky toys, tuggy games and fetch with her humans. She absolutely adores an adventure and would love a new owner to explore the world with, before tucking in to some enrichment and snuggling on the couch. Available at Cardiff, Cardiff
