Suki - female German Shepherd Dog Cross

Six year old Suki is a German shepherd cross who is a real sweetheart once she gets to know you. Suki really enjoys being out and about, walks beautifully on the lead, and enjoys hydrotherapy here at the centre. She is a real water baby, and loves splashing about in paddling pools (or big puddles!). Suki has displayed some separation anxiety here, so she needs someone who is home a lot as she can't really be left alone to start with. Over time though, once Suki is more settled and knows that she is safe and secure, this should get better. Less is more when it comes to Suki, but it doesn’t take her long to build relationships. Suki's carers here say that she's an amazing dog to work with, and she's a real favourite among our staff. With lots of love, time and patience, Suki will make the best companion in the right home.

Sweet Suki is a sensitive girl, who has been in kennels for some time now. She is seeking an adult only home with minimal visitors, as she is quite fearful and can be worried by strangers. Although she is more anxious around men than women she can still build bonds over time, so she just needs patient adopters who are willing to come up and spend time earning her trust. Due to her fear of strangers, Suki will need to be muzzled on walks, and on lead at all times in public places. She can also be reactive towards dogs when she sees them out and about, but our training team have been working hard with her on this.
Suki loves to run around and sniff, so she would benefit from a secure, private garden in her new home. This isn't essential for her, but it would be nice. With Suki adopters will need to be prepared to make multiple visits to the centre, to build a bond with before she can go home.
