Adopt Petunia

Podenco · Female · Young · 3 years

Two little girls arrived to the shelter, so shaky and scared, without a microchip, but surprisingly in a very good physical condition, we were surprised! Usually when we receive Podenco type of dogs, they normally arrive in bad conditions, starved etc, but Kamille & Pegonia were fine physically. After the first shock, they very quickly started to trust the staff and volunteers, and by now they make sommersaults, with their tails falling off from wiggling so happy and fast, when they see people they like, approaching them. First we thought maybe they are sisters, but the veterinary says that according to the teeth, Pegonia seems to be a year older than Kamille, so maybe mother & daughter, but we believe they are related. They are very affectionate with each other, care for one another. Pegonia is a bit bigger, and also more courageous, comes up to humans to say hello and to ask for snacks too! Pegonia also has a bit more independance to go looking around, while Kamille is cuddling with her favourite humans. Pegonia loves to eat! Fresh meat meals and natural snacks are her favourite, and if you don't give it to her, she will make sure you know what she wants, by going for self-service in your pocket! While Kamille was panicking heavily on the leash at first, then Pegonia is much more relaxed on the leash, and that helps Kamille, to follow her. She loves to go for a walk, and walks very nicely next to you. Once they are in the dog park, they are so alive and happy again, jumping like little deer between the bushes, looking for mice and bugs, like normal Podencos. They are both very food motivated, so it is easy to get their attention, and promote and do exercises with the girls. Of course it would be really wonderful if they could find a home together, however over some period of time, we are sure they could very well be adopted separately, providing that the adoptive home already has one or more dogs at home. While Pegonia could potentially also be happy as a single
