Sylvie, 6 year old Lurcher needs home!


History: Sylvie has come into rescue after being abandoned in kennels by her owner who had nowhere for her dogs to go. Sylvie has been in this homeless position for most of her life living in makeshift temporary accommodation whether it be in kennels, stables or old cars. Always with the 5 litter brothers and sisters plus other pack members.

Salient points: Beautifully natured dog who needs dog confident owner(s) for her to develop skills and re-acquaint herself with domestic life, regime and noise/activity levels. Secure garden and companionship of another confident dog would help.

Advert: Sylvie is a medium sized dog who mimics a Bedlington Whippet/Lurcher type. She is sensitive by nature and delights in human attention. She is also nervous of fast movements and loud noises which she can't place or understand. Sylvie needs a therapy programme to gradually introduce her to domestic activity, traffic and enjoying walks outside. She is a delight in the car, sitting bolt upright and taking in the moving scenery as if watching a movie. She loves to be brushed and stroked. She mixes with dogs well and this is infact her comfort zone having lived all her life with her 'pack'.

Sylvie has a sweet energy. She is very respectful and has shown she has housetraining in an aware and understanding home. Sylvie could be an only dog or she could share with another. She will take some while before being trusted off lead, more in the sense she could easily get spooked by a sudden loud noise or someone making too direct an approach towards her in the early settlement days. Bonding with recall would need to be regularly practiced within the garden or via an extender lead outside. Sylvie has a sweet vibration who needs a patient family to go very slowly in building her trust and skills ... oh, but what a lovely dog. Such a delight to help her find her family. Currently in kennels in Croydon Surrey.

"Please note that this dog is currently in kennels and is also available for foster until a 'forever' home is found".
