Our beautiful woman Phaedra may be very sadly searching for a brand new residence. Phaedra is a 2 yr outdated feminine Shepherd cross who arrived within the UK in March of 2023 after being discovered as a stray on the streets of Cyprus.
She has spent the final yr in a beautiful residence in York, however sadly, her household feels that she could be higher suited to a special sort of surroundings.
Phaedra is a really lovely Shepherd cross and remains to be a reasonably younger canine at round two years outdated. She is mostly a really calm, chilled out canine who doesn’t ask for a lot and enjoys being within the firm of her favorite people. She loves spending time exterior within the backyard and being a Cyprus canine at coronary heart, she is an avid sunbather. Between walks.
Phaedra is kind of content material simply lounging round at residence, with the occasional burst of vitality when she needs to play, however is kind of glad entertaining herself together with her toys and doesn’t demand consideration.
Previously yr, Phaedra has continued to show how clever and eager to please she is, and has discovered loads of new issues. Among the many instructions she is aware of are sit, wait, contact, shut (strolling to heel), and are available. Her recall has improved hundreds (however she may be simply distracted if there’s one other canine concerned) and she or he can also be crate skilled, home skilled, and walks effectively on the lead the vast majority of the time.
Phaedra may be very meals motivated and we’re but to discover a deal with that she doesn’t like! She’s not a fussy eater and loves treats like cheese, bread, apples, sweetcorn, and in addition blueberries, though she likes to play with them first!
Phaedra may be very loyal to these she is aware of and trusts, and is searching for an adult-only residence. Sadly, she’s not utterly snug round kids and whereas she’s by no means proven aggression in the direction of them, she is visibly on edge round them.
Loud noises reminiscent of screaming and play preventing trigger her plenty of discomfort and anxiousness, so we really feel {that a} calmer residence with out the unpredictability of kids would go well with her much better and permit her to chill out.
Phaedra additionally doesn’t really feel very snug in giant teams of individuals or canine. Bigger social occasions aren’t Phaedra’s thought of enjoyable and she or he prefers a quiet life. She additionally struggles with large-scale daycare settings (her previous expertise was in a daycare with 20-30 different canine), which is completely honest sufficient.
Numerous canine operating round trigger her to get overwhelmed shortly, however in additional intimate setups the place there are fewer canine and extra construction she is much happier. She has hung out at boarding kennels and she or he beloved it! The employees had nothing however reward for her behaviour after her keep.
Exterior of daycare/kennels conditions, Phaedra usually will get on effectively with different canine. She is tolerant with puppies, eager to play with new canine she meets on walks, and reads different canine physique language effectively. When she’s off lead she instigates play politely and loves interacting with different canine.
She does nonetheless present some lead frustration when she will be able to’t go and play, reminiscent of barking, crying and lunging, however this shouldn’t be misunderstood to be aggression, because it’s not. We predict Phaedra may dwell with one other canine and would profit from their firm, particularly when spending time alone as she does have some gentle separation anxiousness.
Nonetheless, it’s not obligatory as she has lived alone for the previous yr and been okay.
Ideally, Phaedra is searching for a house exterior of town with a relaxed residence ambiance. She would love a house with a backyard, and with a household with some prior information of canine possession. Being a Shepherd, Phaedra wants somebody who’s glad to proceed engaged on her coaching and socialisation.
She is an exceptionally good woman with a giant coronary heart, and her charming character comes out step by step the extra you get to know her. She actually deserves one other likelihood to settle right into a extra relaxed residence setting, and we actually hope that somebody may give this woman what she wants.
Phaedra is presently primarily based in York and has a clear invoice of well being. She is able to meet her new household as quickly as attainable!
