Swanny
Swanny is a truly lovely little lady who has come to us from a breeder and has been quietly stealing hearts ever since. With her unmistakable Beagle nose, Swanny loves to explore her surroundings and see what’s going on around her. While she can still have a slightly shy side, her confidence has blossomed beautifully during her time with us, and her sweet, gentle nature really shines through. She has become very people orientated and now absolutely loves some fuss and attention!
Over the past few weeks, Swanny has made wonderful progress. She is now walking beautifully on the lead and thoroughly enjoys heading out for walks or having a run around our big yard, where she shows her playful and inquisitive side. She also does her best to keep her kennel clean during the day, which suggests that house training in a home environment should be very straightforward with a little routine and patience.
Swanny has made friends with some larger male dogs here at the rescue and loves to go on play dates in our play yard with them. She can be quite picky with which male dogs she likes and can also be too enthusiastic and doesn't always read other dogs' signals, so she would only be suited to living with a calm, larger male dog who is very tolerant of her. Slow, sensible introductions would be essential. Thanks to her growing confidence, we now feel that Swanny could also live as an only dog in the right, understanding home where she can continue to thrive at her own pace or she can live with a larger, calm male dog. She cannot live with cats or small furries.
As Swanny has never lived in a home before, she will need kind and patient adopters who can help her learn the routines of family life. She could share her home with dog-savvy teenagers who can appreciate and understand that she will need a gentle, quiet introduction to the home and her own space to settle in. With gentle guidance, consistency, and love, she is sure to settle quickly and become a devoted and affectionate companion. An active family who enjoy getting out and about would be ideal, as Swanny loves having both her mind and body kept busy.
Swanny has cataracts in both eyes, which do not appear to bother her at all. She has had an umbilical hernia repaired at the time of her spay, along with two teeth extractions. She also has one fractured pre-molar, which our vets have advised leaving for now, though it may need monitoring in the future. Swanny also has a travel document in place.
Swanny is an absolute delight to care for here at the rescue, and we truly believe that whoever opens their heart and home to her will be gaining a very special little dog who has so much love to give.
