Meet Salem! She is looking for an active and understanding home where she can really thrive. Salem can be nervous and unsure around new people but once she has built that trust, her sweet personality begins to shine through. Being a typical Terrier, Salem is full of energy and enthusiasm! she loves getting out for long walks and would be a fantastic companion for someone who enjoys plenty of outdoor adventures. She will need a very active home that can provide her with lots of daily exercise as well as plenty of mental stimulation to keep her busy and happy. Salem absolutely loves toys and enjoys having something to play with and keep her occupied. She can, however, be quite the toy destroyer when she gets bored, so enrichment and appropriate things to chew will be important for her. Salem can be vocal while in her kennel, particularly when she is excited, frustrated or looking for attention. She would benefit from owners who understand Terrier traits and are happy to continue training and socialisation with her. She will need a private secure garden.
Salem was previously rehomed but has since been returned to our care following an incident involving another dog. She can get along with some dogs but her previous owner said she wasn’t compatible with all dogs, so her interactions need to be carefully managed. Her new owner will need to be understanding of her individual needs and committed to working with her through gradual, controlled introductions and ongoing training to help her feel comfortable around other dogs. She will need an owner who is willing to take things at her pace.
Salem will need to be the only dog in the home.
As Salem came into the home as a stray we have no previous history on her so would prefer any children in the home to be 14+ years.
No cats for her.
If you have a holiday booked in the next 3 months please wait until you return to apply for a dog.
*Applications that are successful will be provided with further information on each dog to the best of the charity’s knowledge.
