Meet Theia!  She can be very nervous and unsure when she first meets new people.  The world can feel like a scary place to her, and she needs time to get to know new people at her own pace.  But once she realises she is safe and she begins to trust you, a completely different side of her comes out.  Underneath those nerves is a very sweet, affectionate girl who absolutely loves a fuss and being around the people she trusts.  Theia already knows some basic commands and is keen to engage with you.  When she gets excited, she does tend to jump up to greet you, so will need some continued work on keeping all four paws on the floor.  Kennel life can be difficult for Theia and she does bark while in her kennel.  She also currently uses her bed as a toilet at times, so her new family will need to be prepared to work patiently on her toilet training and help her establish a good routine in a home environment.  What Theia needs most is someone who will give her time, reassurance and positive experiences to help her learn that the world isn’t such a scary place.  She will benefit from a private secure garden.

Theia has socialised well with other dogs whilst in our care and is very bouncy and playful.  We feel she could potentially live with another dog of similar size and energy levels following a successful meet and greet.

As Theia came into the home as a stray we have no previous history on her and as she can be quite timid and unsure we would like any children in the home to be 16+ years.

No cats for Theia.
