Adopted Pretty Pebbles 8yrs old

Pretty Pebbles - Ooh isn't she a sweetheart? This girl is up to date with everything and the perfect companion. She's currently being left for most of the day alone and her owner knows this isn't right for her. She is very much loved, they just want what's best for her.

She has lived with children 8+ and been around younger visiting children with no issues, so her owner has said (please remember to always supervise your kids around dogs, especially when they are settling in). She hasn't lived with cats but did live with another dog, which leads into the next part...

When she was assessed, the owner said that she barks and lunges at other dogs when on the lead but is fine off lead. Her owner doesn't seem to know if it is aggressive or excitement. However, from her behaviour observed it would appear to be excitement.

On her assessment walk, she saw two dogs who she totally ignored. The only reaction seen was in response to a neighbours dog barking at the window, which was just one bark and move on. Pebbles is a puller and is pretty strong on lead. So you will need to be prepared for this and use a walking aid while training her. The owner said that off lead her recall is good but she will chase small yappy dogs for fun

We would like her to join a family where there is someone around most of the time. You will need to work on the pulling and be prepared for her vocal chords getting exercised on walks! She is a biddable girl who has good basic obedience so she will respond to training, you just need to be aware.

She would probably be better as an only dog and can go to a family with kids. Currently in Tamworth, Pebbles needs her forever home ASAP. Her minimum adoption donation is £170.
