Adopter Shaila

Central Asian Shepherd Dog · Hunn · Ung · 2 år

Meet Shaila our beautiful Central Asian Shepherd mix. Shaila arrived at Battersea through no fault of her own. She has a lovely history in her prior home, her previous owners noting how she was a well behaved and affectionate girl who loved to follow her owners around. Shaila is looking for a home with experienced owners who have a good knowledge of guarding breeds. She has shown to be reactive to both humans and dogs while onsite and this will need managing in her new home, though no 'aggression' towards these triggers have been seen in her history or onsite. New owners will need to be confident in socialising her alongside providing her with enough mental and physical stimulation to meet all of her needs. Shaila can live with another dog, as long as they are respectful but not too over the top. Shaila has previously lived with other dogs, onsite she was initially worried, submissive and at times reactive to dogs further away. However she has shown to be much more comfortable around smaller dogs, often playful. Shaila will not be able to live with a cat, although she does have a history of living with 2 cats, they did not appreciate her interacting with them and would swat at her to chase her off. She would also grumble at them if they approached her while eating, though never escalated. She also history of chasing foxes and wildlife. Onsite Shaila has been friendly with everyone she has met. No issues with handling and when playing with her favourite people, she can be excitable and mouthy at times but stops playing when handler does. Due to this, she may be too overwhelming for children if they are not familiar with this breed/ behaviour, Shaila can live with teenagers. Shaila will need a private garden, due to being a large breed that can be worried at times, having a quiet space where she can relax outdoors and burn off some energy. Sweet Shaila really is a delightful girl who has won everyone over with her gentle nature. She would make the most loving and loyal of companions in any household lucky enough to have her!
