Adoptar a Cris - UK

Cris was found in a town on the outskirts of Seville, wandering the streets and looking for food. Thankfully she was caught and made her way to one of our partner kennels where she spent more than a year before coming to foster in the UK. She had made a lot of progress at the shelter, in the early days she would try and escape the shelter as she was scared of noises in particular, but she had learned to trust and was seeking out a fuss at times. With a move to the UK the process of trusting started again - she has already formed a lovely bond with the female foster, but is still very wary of the male foster when he is moving around in the home but this is something that will come in time.. She is still noise sensitive and as such, is a flight risk when a loud unexpected noise spooks her so we are looking for a home where its not too busy or noisy. Because she can climb, she needs a secure garden that has boundaries that aren’t able to be climbed (no wire or netting or anything with footholds). It is likely that even in ‘secure’ fields that are available for hire, she will need to be on a longline as we know she can climb those type of fences. In the home, she is generally very relaxed and has settled in brilliantly. She was completely clean in the home from day 1, is happy to snooze the day away on her favourite bed (she is a real creature of habit!), can be left for a few hours with the other dogs and is totally fine. She walks nicely on the lead and loves her countryside walks - her tail is up high and she gets a lot from a calm and peaceful walking environment. She also travels well in the car. She has shown a glimpse of her playful side on occasion with the other dogs, but we expect this will take some time to fully show itself. She is good with other dogs and is currently living with 4 other Podencos. She is looking for a home with at least one other confident resident dog. She is a good eater and enjoys her meals - the foster hasn’t seen any resource guarding around food. In the early days, she was a little protective over ‘her’ bed on a couple of occasions with the other dogs, but it never escalated and seems to have settled. She is also a very skilled fly hunter! She has not voluntarily chosen to sit on the sofa yet but on occasion but does seek out a head rub and likes to lay on her back and have a tummy rub! She will be a slow burner before you see her full personality but she is a delight and very easy day to day as long as she is kept safe and secure and each day more of her cute, cheeky personality shines through. A tracker is a must for Cris, just incase. When she was first caught, she was living with cats for a short while before she came to the shelter so we are classing her as cat workable. Cris is neutered, vaccinated and tested negative for all Mediterranean diseases. She is passported and available for adoption now. If you would prefer to make a one off donation, please click below
