Tess, an unusual mix of Shar Pei x Collie who recently suffered the heartbreaking loss of her sister and lifelong companion, Millie. The sisters have been long-term residents at Helping Hounds because we felt we just couldn't separate them. Insufficient socialisation and interactions during their first decade of life before Helping Hounds, made them a bit of a handfull to home together. In our care, they both blossomed, mellowed and learnt some lovely manners!To help Tess through the grief and loneliness wrought by the disappearance of Millie from her life, the volunteers are giving her extra attention, special trips out, new experiences and overnight stays. But it's not enough.Tess needs to be in a home, full-time with people for company. She's an angel in the home and despite her sadness, she's embracing every new life experience we are introducing her to. She's a great telly watching companion, loves affection and although she's slowing down now, she enjoys a lenghty stroll and adventures on the many commons that surround us. Although she's a strong girl, she's a polite and attentive walker on the lead, just happy to be by your side and is very responsive to instructions. She stops when you ask her to and politely waits for you. Although she could be an only pet, we believe she would really appreciate the company of another calm older dog. She's used to having a companion and has been looking wistfully at other dogs playing when we've encountered them on walks. We would do a series of meet and greets with any resident dog in a potential home to ensure the right match.If you think yours might be a suitable home for her to spend the rest of her days, please complete an application form. We would love to hear from you.
