Fancy Pants - Female Poodle (Miniature)

17-03-2024 Fancy Pants is a very scared girl who has come to us from a breeder and is very worried about being touched and handled. She needs an adult only and very experienced home who have had scared dogs before and understand how to work with Fancy Pants to overcome her fears. She breaks you heart as there is nothing but worry in her eyes at the moment and she cuddles up to her kennel friends under the heat lumps for comfort. She will allow us to pick her up if we go slowly but she is very unsure and not used to hands being kind. Fnacy Pants needs a home where she will be given the time she needs to feel safe. She is a flight risk so will need a very secure garden and home and there must be at least one other confident dog to help her and who will allow her to cuddle up with them for comfort and support if she wants to. She has never been in a home so this is going to be completely overwhelming at first and she will need owners with endless time and patience to help her learn about house training etc. At first the garden may be as scary and the inside of the home so getting in the garden and then back in the home could take time. Fancy Pants has no idea about lead walking and this is something her new owners will need to work on once they have gained her trust. They will need to start practising in the garden and then progress outside in quiet areas and the importance of double leading her cannot be stressed enough. In time and with owners who really understand her needs Fancy Pants will slowly start to flourish and become the happy girl she should have always been. She has had one tooth removed at the time of her spay and she is also currently being treated for an ear infection.
