About This Dog

Imelda's ideal home

Imelda is a lovely 6 year old Collie who has recently arrived from Ireland as stray and is looking for a patient, understanding home. She’s a clever girl who loves her toys and would enjoy having her own secure garden to play and relax in. Imelda has a sensitive side and can find loud noises or frustrating situations difficult, so she would be best suited to a calmer home with children aged 16+ where she has her own secure garden to relax and play in.
She will need some support learning to stay calm when things feel overwhelming. Imelda may need to learn the basics again, including housetraining, and any time left alone will need to be built up gradually. With patience, kindness, and a steady routine, Imelda has the potential to become a very loyal and rewarding companion.

Could you be Imelda's perfect match?

Imelda will need to be the only dog in the home for now whilst she is still under assessment.
