Owl

Beagle · Female · Adult · 4 years

I need a calm and quiet home where I can settle in at my own pace. I need a resident dog to help me settle in and I have met cats fine. I would like a secure garden to spend time in. I am learning to walk on a lead, but it's still very new for me. I have never lived in a home so I will need help to learn house training. Please read my information below. 21-09-26 Owl has come to us from a breeder to find her forever home. She is a sweet girl who is feeling a little worried and overwhelmed by all the changes in her life. When she first meets you, she can be unsure and worried about being touched, but if you spend some time with her and give her the chance to get to know you, she soon starts to come out of her shell and becomes eager for fuss and attention. With love, patience and TLC, we don't think it will take Owl too long to grow in confidence and show her lovely personality. Owl will be looking for a calm and quiet home with adopters who have experience with dogs and understand that she will need time to settle in at her own pace. She will need another kind and confident resident dog in her new home to be her friend and help her feel safe as she adjusts to her new life. We would consider homing her with gentle, dog-savvy teenagers aged 13+. She has met cats at the rescue and appeared unbothered by them so may be able to live with a dog savvy cat. Owl has never lived in a home before, so her adopters will need to be kind and patient as she learns all about home life and new skills such as house training. She is also very new to walking on a lead and harness, so this will need to be introduced gently and she will need plenty of practice as her confidence grows. She will need an extra secure garden with at least 6ft fencing as to keep her safe. Owl is a lovely girl and with plenty of love and TLC, we hope that she will soon blossom into the happy and affectionate girl we know she can be. She has arrived a little overweight, but with a good diet and gentle exercise she should start to shed the excess weight soon. Our vets have noted that she has a fracture tooth, which will need to be monitored. Owl experienced some bleeding following her spay, so further investigations were carried out. Genetic testing identified her as a carrier of Factor VII deficiency, an inherited blood-clotting condition. As she carries only one copy of the affected gene, she does not have the full condition and should be able to live a normal life. However, carriers can occasionally have a slightly increased tendency to bleed, so her new vets will need to be aware of this before any future surgery or invasive procedures Owl has a travel document. Owl has been given the Gift of Life by Pamela Balsam Through the generosity of a Gift of Life sponsor, this dog was able to leave behind an uncertain future in Ireland and find safety and care at Many Tears. Every sponsorship helps us rescue and save more dogs in desperate need. If you would like to become part of a rescue story, please consider donating to our Gift of Life fund. These wonderful souls may be older, have medical needs, or come with a few unique quirks—but they have endless love to give. Full of personality and deserving of a second chance, they come with a reduced adoption fee to help them find the perfect home. Could you be the one to give them the love they’ve been waiting for? This dog can be homed with a resident dog. This dog can be homed with cats.
