Ivy

Ivy is a beautiful one-year-old crossbreed who recently came to Islay Dog Rescue after unforeseen changes in her family's circumstances. Having previously lived in a loving home, she is now looking for a forever family of her own. Ivy is a gentle, affectionate and energetic young dog who absolutely adores attention. Like many dogs her age, she is full of enthusiasm for life and enjoys being involved in everything her people are doing. She is also incredibly cuddly and thrives on companionship. A bright and intelligent girl, Ivy already knows several commands including sit, paw, other paw, spin and lie down. She is highly motivated by treats, making her eager to learn and a great candidate for continued training. Ivy walks nicely on the lead and generally enjoys her outings. However, she has occasionally shown some reactivity towards dogs that come too close while she is on lead. This is an area that her adopters will need to continue working on through positive, reward-based training. ...
