Description:
We are looking for someone to come forward with a warm heart and a happy home for the most adorable Dottie.
Dottie is a beautiful dog with a personality and temperament to match. Please do not be put off by Dottie's age, she is in good health currently with no medical issues. We are however owing to her years offering her as a LONG TERM FOSTER placement for ever more, with full rescue support from us.
Dottie lives with children and we are happy to place her in a home with children who have lived with dogs previously over the age of 10.
Dottie gets along with dogs, She is totally fine with all dogs off her lead so we believe she can live with dogs, but a careful and controlled introduction would be asked.
Dottie cannot live with cats.
Dottie is an ex working dog, but has lived in as a family dog for many years, she is house trained and lives happily in the home. She is looking for a new home due to a change in the owners working hours and she is being left such a long time, they have made the decision to find a retirement home through us where she can be loved and cared with someone ideally who is home all day.
Dottie does have some lead reactivity with other dogs if they come up close to her on her lead, this has been a lunge or a bark, but this would be unknown dogs and only when on her lead.
We know it takes a special person to come forward to foster a dog of this age, and for everyone who does offer we will be grateful and consider their home. Dottie has only just turned 14 and is in good health and still enjoying a daily walk, she's a pocket sized springer!
For no one time is promised and we hope someone will see past her age and give her the comfort and love and care she deserves forever onwards.
As a long term foster the vet bills will be covered by the rescue.
Please only apply for her if you feel your home will be suitable, be mindful of her age towards incumbent dogs and children and the upheaval this will be for her.
Dottie is based in Mid West Wales, please be aware to foster you need to collect her.
