22-02-25 Valley has come to us from a breeder ready to start her new life and find her forever home. Valley is truly a heartbreaker. The first time I saw her, she was in the van and had just arrived from Ireland - she was squeezed into the corner of her crate, trying to make herself as small as possible and hoping no one would notice her. She was carried to a warm and cosy kennel and given some time to settle in, but the next day did the same thing and spent her day squeezed into the very corner of her big kennel, hoping nobody would see her there. She was just so worried and overwhelmed to find herself here, it was so sad to see. However, two days later, she is already starting to come out of her shell which is just so heartwarming. Although she still hides away in the corner, she will now look at us and seems quite curious. Despite her fears, Valley does let us handle her easily and we can tell she has the sweetest soul and a gentle nature, she just needs lots of TLC as she starts to settle in and come out of her shell. Valley will be looking for a calm and quiet, adult only home with adopters who have experience with scared ex-breeding dogs and will allow her to settle in at her own pace. She relies heavily on other dogs for comfort so will need at least one other kind and confident resident dog in her new home who will take her under their wing and be her friend. She has never lived in a home before so this will be very overwhelming for her and her new canine friends will help her adjust and learn new skills like house training. She has never worn a lead or harness before so will need to practice wearing these around the home and garden until she is feeling brave enough to venture into the big wide world. Valley is such a sweet soul and it will be so rewarding to see her reach new milestones like wagging her tail for the first time or feeling brave enough to take a treat from you. She will start to blossom much quicker in a home, so hopefully her family will find her as soon as possible. Valley has a travel document.
Valley has come to us from a breeder in Ireland. Their trip was sponsored by an anonymous and very generous donation to the Gift of Life fundraiser. The donation has not only sponsored Valley but also all of the other dogs on the van! We are so humbled by this generous donation and so very thankful. If you would like to donate to other dogs like Valley please take a look at our Gift of Life page.
Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
PLEASE NOTE: We nearly always home dogs who have come from breeders where there is ALREADY A RESIDENT DOG living in the house. They have usually never lived in a house before and are only used to canine company. They usually get their confidence and learn faster with another dog to copy from. This also helps with house training and learning how to walk on a lead. They will make lovely pets but do need a lot of love, time and patience. If the ex breeding dog you are interested in can be an only dog it will say so in its write up. Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
