Growing in ConfidenceJewel came to us from Romania as a shy, nervous girl, unsure of the world around her. Since then, she has made incredible progress.With patience, kindness, and time, her confidence has absolutely blossomed. She has been doing brilliantly meeting new people, walking in busier areas, and continuing to build her trust in the world around her.Like many dogs with her background, she will need a little time to feel fully safe in a new home, which is why we require multiple visits before adoption. Once that bond is there, she gives so much in return. With Other DogsJewel is great with many dogs and has built some lovely friendships during her time with us. She interacts well in the kennels and has become much more comfortable and social as her confidence has grown.She has, however, shown some resource guarding behaviour in a previous home environment. Based on that experience, we have chosen to take a cautious and responsible approach and are looking to place her as the only dog in the home, where she can feel completely relaxed and secure.It’s important to note that she has improved a great deal in our care and continues to show very positive social interactions with other dogs — this is simply about setting her up for the best possible long-term success.This allows her to fully relax, feel secure, and enjoy her environment without any pressure or competition.
