Bradenton, FL - this little 7-year-old beauty DAPHNE needs a new home.
Mom loves her dearly but has a toddler - and a baby on the way! Daphne has the typical behavior of nipping to test you - like she will nip a butt, or take a hat off you, or pull your hair. It's ok for adults and we can discourage [or laugh] but a baby can't and their skin is very tender and delicate. Dad got this girl from a breeder long before babies came along.
Transportation help is available for Daphne to get to her forever home. So please consider her.
Daphne weighs about 62 lbs. and could use a little more real food in her diet, like some of those fresh-frozen meals. She is not gaining weight on kibble. She has beautiful gold eyes and is healthy, up to date on vaccines. Daphne is getting spayed very soon for adoption. She is well behaved indoors, can be left alone for reasonable periods [a couple of hours]. No significant separation anxiety but having a canine companion is helpful. She is shy and will take a little time to acclimate to a new home, but with lots of attention, walks in the woods, playing in a creek - she will get happy pretty quickly. Someone home a lot - retired, works at home - would be great for this sweetie! Daphne has a little food guarding with people but not with her current canine companion - but they are fed next to each other - so we advised separating to avoid guarding at all.
She lives with another large dog and has coexisted successfully with other large dogs. We have seen her best body language with large male dogs. [LTWR does not rehome females with females, or with cats/little dogs/children]. Daphne is currently tethered in her yard because she can clear their 6' fence easily, so she needs a new home with lean ins, or 7'-8' fencing. She should be able to run and play and not be tied!
If you would like to have Daphne come live with you and you have the necessary experience [northern breeds or wolfdogs] and environment, please go to our website page WANT TO ADOPT and follow the directions. Or email Pamela at [email protected] We need to hear from you soon! Look at this gorgeous girl! always smiling!
