Adopt Trixie

Cocker Spaniel · Żynkie · Dorosły · 5 lata

Trixie is a very sweet lady who has come to us from a breeder in search of a new start. Although her tail is constantly wagging, she will shyly approach for a gentle fuss and tends to stay away and watch from a distance until she feels safe. Once she builds trust, she is affectionate and will enjoy a snuggle and a gentle fuss. In foster, she has shown herself to be a nervous girl in new environments who still needs encouragement to engage with new people. She will often hang back and observe, but once more secure she will come forward for interaction and enjoys fuss and attention from her fosterer. Despite the fact that she is still a nervous girl, she also isn't keen on sharing her home with other dogs and so we feel she would be happiest as an only dog in her new home. Although she is in foster with other dogs, she can be jealous when her fosterer is showing attention to other dogs and has reacted towards them on occasion. She is fine with socialising with other calm dogs, but can be reactive towards barking or yappy dogs or dogs that are in her face too much or too boisterous. For this reason, we feel she would be best suited to an adult only home with adopters who have experience of nervous ex-breeding dogs. She has met cats fine, but due to her tendency to become jealous, we would not look to home her with cats. In the garden, she has shown signs of digging and has previously tried to escape a foster home, so very secure boundaries are essential. Her new home will need to have 6ft minimum fencing height and her new adopters will need to keep her on lead in the garden until she gains confidence outside. She might enjoy having a sand pit to play in so she can enjoy digging in appropriate areas. Trixie has been mostly clean in the house in her foster home, and seems to be star at toilet training. However, she may need some reminders in her new home as she settles in new surroundings. She is beginning to walk on a harness but can still become startled and may try to back out if frightened. She needs experienced adopters, a secure garden (6ft+ fencing) as she has been digging in her foster garden, and additional safety measures indoors. She will need a calm, secure, adult-only home and a gentle introduction to home life. She has had a small lump removed from her left mammary gland and is recovering well. She has a travel document.
