Winnie – 1 1/2 year old female Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Winnie is a 1 1/2 year old female Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Winnie was found stray at a young age in season. She has since settled and is receiving support in what are challenging times for her. She is very loving and will be the dog her new owners make her … but she needs love, time and patience for her to settle in a caring setting.
Winnie had 2 weeks in a home and settled immediately into a loving dog relating to young children and was welcomed as a close member. She however escaped out the front door and rushed at a dog in her plight to run, as many dogs do. The family couldn’t chance that happening again so she came back to us. Winnie is such a lovely dog and she has already come so far. She walks parallel with other dogs, settles and soon builds trust. Winnie needs to be an only dog as her dog skills are very elementary. She requires gentle introductions with reassurance coming through her lead. Innocence is the word that sums Winnie up.
So many people are coming forwards to offer Staffies their heart. Staffies are having a particularly challenging time, as being sensitive souls it isn’t easy for them. Winnie is such a dog who has been dumped and is confused. Her instincts are to trust, to love and to learn from confident hands. She is young and she will settle. She will bring her energies into focus and achieve skills. She is ready to be given that opportunity. She tries to settle in kennels, but kennels can’t offer that next step. We will support Winnie, she will win through! She is a winner she is Winnie.
Winnie has been with us since May 2009 – A WHOLE YEAR – and she is still waiting in kennels for her forever home. She knows that home is out there somewhere, but she just hasn’t met you yet!
