Quiet calm cuddly
Poppy is one sixth of a gorgeous litter of girls, who are now proudly known as the “flower pups,” after being named over on our Instagram account. The sisters were near an apartment block and were looked after by their street mum, before being rescued by our partner shelter at just 6 weeks old. Since then, they have been anticipating the time when they would be ready to fly the nest and each find their happily ever after.
Poppy is a sweet natured girl and like most puppies, is spending every day learning about the big wide world! She can sometimes be a little nervous when she is meeting new people, but with lots of treats and positive encouragement she is soon to warm up, especially where there is a big cosy cuddle on offer!
Poppy loves to spend her days playing and also enjoys the pack walks with the other dogs at the shelter. She easily makes friends with other dogs, so we could consider homes with a resident friendly dog to help teach Poppy about her new home. Two things Poppy cannot get enough of is treats and cuddles! These will be plenty of help when teaching Poppy lots of new tricks and bonding during some puppy training sessions.
As she continues to build her confidence, we would be keen to place Poppy in at least a semi rural home, where she can feel as safe as can be. Poppy is a real sweetheart and with committed adopters by her side, we have no doubt that she will continue to blossom more and more each day.
Poppy has not yet been tested with cats or children so we will be watching how her personality develops and considering homes on a case by case basis.
Please note, Poppy will not be available to travel until around March. As a result, it may take us longer to reply to applications, as we need to prioritise those arriving sooner – thank you for your patience, and rest assured we’ll be in touch to discuss your interest in Poppy as soon as possible!
