10-05-26 Nana has come to us from a breeder and is now searching for her forever home. She is a sweet girl who is understandably feeling very scared and overwhelmed to find herself here. It’s clear she hasn’t had much handling or socialisation before, so human hands are quite worrying for her at the moment and she is very nervous of being handled. We will continue gently helping her learn that human hands can be kind. If pushed out of her comfort zone, she may panic and choose to make the wrong decision, so it's important her adopters take things slowly with her.
Nana will be looking for a calm and quiet adult only home where she can settle in at her own pace. She would really benefit from adopters who have experience with nervous ex-breeding dogs and who understand the patience, time and reassurance she will need as she learns to trust. She can be quite vocal when she first meets you, but she is quick to make friends when you offer her some tasty treats.
She relies on other dogs for comfort and reassurance, so Nana will need at least one other kind and confident resident dog in her new home to take her under their wing and help her feel safe and secure. She gets along better with male dogs and so would need a male resident dog in her new home and cannot live with female dogs.
As Nana has never lived in a home before, she will need patient adopters who will be kind and understanding as she learns all about home life and new skills like house training. She will also need to learn all about walking on a lead and harness, first practicing in the garden as she builds confidence.
With time, kindness and plenty of TLC, Nana will begin to leave the past behind her and let her true personality shine through.
Nana has some hormonal alopecia, but this should start to grow back once she has been spayed. She has a small inguinal hernia that has been repaired and has had several teeth removed at the time of her spay.
