About This Dog

Connie's ideal home

Connie is a scruffy lovebug who is looking for a family to call her own. She adores company and would like her family to be around as much as possible, so a busy household would suit her. If you chat to her, she visibly relaxes and will come over for a fuss but she's not so keen on being left alone and has shown signs of worry in her previous home, where she has chewed items. Time alone will need to be built up very gradually as she settles in.

Connie is keener on the boys and prefers the company of male dogs in her own home. Out and about, she's fine with both males and females but doesn't particularly want to interact - her people are her main focus.

Connie could share her home with children aged 11 and over, who understand that she will need time to settle in and gain her confidence so may need a quiet space at first.

Could you be Connie's perfect match?

Connie has spent all of her life so far living in a small village and walking across fields, so she's not used to the hustle and bustle of towns and cities and may be frightened by lots of traffic and noise. She does like to jump in the car to go on new adventures though and particularly enjoys a run on the beach or exploring in woodland. She's looking for a more rural home where she can rebuild her confidence, get to know her family and enjoy a lifetime of cuddles on the sofa!
