HELP ME FIND A HOME
Are you right for Suki?
Sweet Suki is seeking an adult only home, preferable a female owner as she can be worried by men, although once a bond as been built she could be fine with a male owner. She is looking for a quiet with not many visitors, no visiting children and a home where she can get all the love and attention for herself. Suki must be the only pet in the home as she is dog reactive and will need to be on lead and muzzled when out in public places. Due to her fear of men, she has been known to bark and lunge at them while out on a walk. A rural location would suit her better with a low dog populated area. She will need access to her own secure private garden where she can explore and relax in without any distractions. Previous experience of Shepherd breeds would be beneficial, and she will need multiple introductions to build a bond before she can go home.
Is Suki right for you?
5-year-old Suki is a German Shepherd Cross who is a real sweetie once she gets to know you. Suki really enjoys being out and about, walks lovely on the lead and enjoys hydrotherapy here at our Centre. She really enjoys playing in a paddling pool so to have this in her new home she would love! Suki does have separation anxiety so cannot be left as she has known to be destructive and vocal. This could potentially be increased once she feels settled in her new home. Less is more when it comes to Suki, but it doesn’t take her long to build relationships. With lots of love and patience and the right home, Suki will make the best companion and is an amazing dog to work with.
