FOR ADOPTION – INDY – ROMSEY

I’m a six-year-old, medium-sized girl who is clever, active and independent, and I’m looking for an outdoorsy home where I can enjoy plenty of adventures. I’m living with another dog friend currently.

I can be a little cautious when meeting new people and prefer to take things at my own pace. I’ll need an owner who is patient, understanding and willing to give me the time I need to build trust and confidence. Once I feel comfortable, I’m happy to relax and enjoy being part of the family.

I know a range of cues and I’m a bright girl who enjoys learning. I’d love a home that will continue my training and help me build my confidence.

My favourite place to be is outdoors. I love long walks, exploring new places, running through grassy areas and following interesting scents. My nose is always on the go and I can happily spend ages investigating the world around me. If there’s a smell to be found, I’ll find it!

I’m also a real foodie, which makes training lots of fun. I love treats and rewards and am always keen to learn when there’s something tasty involved.

One thing my new family will need to understand is that I need to stay on a lead or long line when out and about. I have a high prey drive and can run incredibly fast when something catches my attention. Because of this, I may never be a dog that can safely enjoy off-lead walks.

That doesn’t stop me from having fun though! I love exploring, sniffing, running on a long line and enjoying adventures with my people. I’m looking for a family who will be happy to manage me safely and give me plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors while keeping me secure.

When I’m out and about, I can sometimes bark at other dogs, particularly if I don’t know them. However, with calm and sensible introductions, I’m usually happy to make new friends. In my previous home I spent time with dog walkers and other dogs, and in foster care I’ve met several dogs successfully. I may bark initially, but once I’ve had a chance to say hello properly, I’m generally happy in their company.

I would particularly love a home that enjoys quieter walks, countryside paths and open spaces where I can explore at my own pace. An active owner who enjoys getting outdoors and continuing my training would be perfect for me.

My Ideal Home

• Adult-only home or a home with older children
• Active owners who enjoy walking and being outdoors
• Patient people who will give me time to build trust
• Happy to continue my training and confidence-building
• Comfortable managing me on a lead or long line
• Can provide plenty of enrichment and outdoor adventures
• No cats
