๐ŸŒŸ

Leash Manners

Walks nicely on a leash and loves exploring the neighbourhood.

Why Is She Looking for a Home?

Zoey was originally fostered by me before being adopted into a loving family. Over time, a second dog joined their home, and after that dog required months of intensive medical care, Zoey began resource guarding human attention โ€” picking fights whenever affection was shown to the other dog. With no safe path to reintegration, her family made the difficult decision to find her a new home.

For the past two months Zoey has been living with me again โ€” a professional dog trainer โ€” working through structure, crate training, enrichment, and socialisation. She has made excellent progress and continues to be eager to please. She coexists peacefully in my home, but her history makes clear she will be happiest as the star of the show.

Ideal home: Only pet in the home, older kids or adults, someone who enjoys regular training and enrichment. A patient owner who will continue building on the solid foundation she already has.

Training Notes

Zoey responds best to positive reinforcement โ€” treats and praise make her light up. She is currently working on leash reactivity toward other dogs and has made solid progress. We recommend continuing regular training sessions and enrichment activities to keep her engaged and confident in her new home. She is eager to please and picks things up quickly when given clear, consistent guidance.
