About me

Winnie came into our care when her owners approached RSPCA Inspectors asking for help. They were not able to meet her welfare needs and due to there being several other pets in the house Winnie was being kept in single room.

Winnie walks well on the lead but can pull a little when excited. Winnie will need her own enclosed garden with 5 ft fencing for off lead play as she will need to be kept on lead on her walks. It would also be a good idea to rent a dog field so she can have a good run and explore. Winnie can live with children of secondary school age.

Winnie can bark at other dogs on her walks due to her lack of socialisation in her previous home. Her new family will need to continue with her socialisation when out on her walks allowing her to gain confidence around calm and friendly dogs. It would be best for her not to be walked in areas where there are lots of dogs on or off the lead as this could make her anxious. Winnie will need to be the only dog in her new home and is best in a home where there are no dogs visiting. She is not able to live with cats.

Winnie will need house training so her new family will need to have the time to help her with this. She can be left for short periods and this can be increased slowly over time as she settles in and is house trained. Winnie can be unsure of hoovers and mops so her new family will need to be patient in introducing her to the sights and sounds of the home. She travels well in the car but may need refresher training with her new family.

PLEASE NOTE

Our adoption teams will search through applications to find potential matches that meet all of the animals individual needs. They may contact you to discuss the adoption process and your application in more detail.

Millbrook regrettably is unable to keep a waiting list. However we are able to keep your application for up to 3 months to hopefully try to match you with another animal.
