Sienna: female dog to adopt

Sienna is a medium sized crossbreed aged around seven years old. Not been cat tested. Can live with or without resident dog. Respectful children 10 plus. This sweet little girl has had a torturous existence in the Botosani public shelter in Romania for around a year, we don’t know how long she suffered prior to this. Poor Sienna has had chronic and painful ear issues that could not be treated at the shelter. The constant discomfort must have been intolerable for her and the constant and vigorous shaking of her head has left her with permanent cauliflower ears were the blood vessels in them burst. She is now in the UK and at last being treated for her condition. Sienna is a kind a gentle girl who can’t quite believe how her luck has changed. She arrived very skinny and matted and it’s been quite a task to get her into a tidy state. Despite her the sufferance of her past, Sienna is a happy and attentive girl who enjoys a fuss and a cuddle. She walks beautifully on a lead and is a pleasure to take out and about. She can live with or without other dogs in her forever home and would be ok to live with respectful children aged ten plus.

Adoption Terms & Conditions

When you adopt a Safe Rescue dog, you MUST use a slip lead. This will keep your dog safe: your new dog will be nervous and will not trust you, and you will not know which situations might upset your dog. If your dog panics, then a slip lead is the only way to prevent your dog from escaping (many dogs can escape from a collar and/or harness). It will take AT LEAST 3-6 months for your dog to settle-in and for you to know your dog fully (longer for nervous dogs). The slip lead must ALWAYS be used during this settling-in period. Even after your dog is settled, it is safest to use the slip lead in situations where your dog may become scared (e.g. visiting new places, around unfamiliar people, at the vet), and it situations where unexpected triggers might happen (e.g. around bonfire night). Nervous dogs may always need to wear a slip-lead as a back-up safety measure. The slip lead is a safety device and must NEVER be used as a training tool. Using the lead to apply pressure to the dog’s neck is damaging. If your dog pulls on the lead, then we can advise you on training methods that avoid harm. Once your dog is settled, you may want to consider using a harness (together with the slip lead) if your dog is comfortable with being handled when it is fitted. Most harnesses are not escape-proof, but harnesses with a strap behind the ribcage (e.g. Ruffwear Webmaster or Perfect Fit Harnesses) are safer. Retractable / extendable leads must never be used on our dogs. Adopted dogs must be collected from the rescue and transported straight home in a secure metal crate. Fences and gates must be 5foot minimum in height and secure.
