Wendy and Suzie adopteren
Kruisbried · Vrouwelijk · Volwassen · 5 jaren
Wendy and Suzie have been at our rescue centre for over 7 months, since Sept 2025. They have very special needs but deserve a chance at a calm, safe, comfortable home. Brief history – these two were living alone in a wooded area having been dumped there. It took 3 weeks and a team of volunteers to finally trap them. They were matted and terrified – our assumption is that these were 2 breeding female dog whose services were no longer needed. Wendy, the younger one on the left of the photo is about 5 years old and the braver of the two. Suzie is around 9. We assume they are mother and daughter, they are completely co-dependent, we cannot split them up. We can’t really touch Suzie. If we corner her in a confined space she will submit to handling, grooming etc, but she will never ever approach you. Wendy is better – after a spell of getting to know you she will allow cuddles, belly rubs and loves being picked up for a good hug. Neither dog will walk on lead in spite of months of practice and encouragement. Their miracle home will need a secure garden and an owner who has little interest in walks or excursions. They would live happily in someone’s garden with access to a warm, comfortable shed / garage initially, with the hope that they will gain the courage over time to come inside the house to sleep and interact. Graduating to living within a home will take time and patience. They are curious so we would advise giving their meals near an open back door where they will eventually poke their nose in and choose to spend time inside. But for starters a cosy shed or garage in a secure space would be absolutely fine – better than they have ever had.
