Beautiful Holly is a 5-year-old lurcher girl who is now ready to start looking for her home.
Holly in the main is a gentle soul, she is very sweet and loving and adores her humans.
Holly was said to have moments where she was not so great with other dogs but since joining us at the kennels, we have found her to be calm around them and enjoy their company.
If Holly were to be rehomed with another dog it would need to be a quiet male of calm demeanour. She does not like loud noises, raised voices or vocal reactive dogs.
Her disposition in general at times can be quite nervous.
Out and about Holly walks like a dream on lead, she is attentive and always looking for reassurance that she is doing the right thing.
Off lead in our enclosed paddock, she can be quite bouncy and will attempt at times to jump up to get you to play. She needs an owner willing to engage with her with calm food orientated play and lots of enrichment activities.
She loves to work out puzzle games but does not like repetitive training, it makes her anxious and she then gets confused and over stimulated.
Holly could easily adapt to living as an only dog with lurcher experienced owners who are around in the main most of the time. She is fine to settle for an hour or two on her own but would not like being left for long periods.
She is not cat and small furry friendly and does have a high prey drive, an enclosed garden with good fencing would be a must.
Holly could live with dog savvy children 8 years and upwards.
Holly is clean in her kennel and toilets at every given opportunity, she loves to be praised and encouraged.
We were told that in the home she had the occasional accident if left for long periods overnight so an owner willing to continue working with that.
Holly travels well on short journeys but does need a little more work on longer trips.
Holly is vaccinated, kc vaccinated, de flead, de wormed, microchipped and spayed. She really is a fabulous little lady who deserves the best home out there after a period of unsettlement.
If you are interested in offering Holly a home, please in the first instance complete the pre adoption questionnaire below.
Holly is based in Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire and anyone wishing to offer her a home must be willing to travel to meet her with all the members of the immediate family and any resident dogs.
