Isla is an extremely intelligent and loyal dog. Once she bonds with someone, she’s deeply affectionate and will always be by your side. She’s eager to learn, thrives on structure, and is happiest when she has a job to do. Isla needs a confident owner who can give her the time, attention, and ongoing training that she deserves Isla came into rescue due to her fear reactions toward humans and reactivity toward other dogs. We’ve worked extensively with her, and she’s fully muzzle trained. While she has made great progress, she still needs a home that understands her sensitivities and is committed to continuing her training. Isla’s ideal home would be with an experienced owner who leads an active lifestyle and has no children or other pets. She would do well in an environment where she has a job or task to keep her engaged, whether that’s training, dog sports, or even working roles. If you’re ready for a loyal, intelligent companion and have the experience to help Isla continue growing, she could be your perfect match! Isla is currently in a foster home on the Wirral

Belgium Shepherd, approx 18 months old, spayed, vaccinated and microchipped also flea'd and wormed.Really lovely girl who is eager to please. Loves cuddles and very friendly and playful.Has her likes and dislikes with other dogs so as always careful intros would be required around dogs. Cats and other small furries are unknown and untested.Any children would need to be 6+ and dog savvy.Mahlia travels well and walks quite nicely. She is young and excitable but does calm down.She has shown no signs of being destructive and is clean in her kennel.We would love to find Mahalia a home where she is not going to be crated or left for many hours by herself as she loves her human companionship.A secure garden with adequate height fencing is a must.
