Introducing... adorable Adele!

Adele's Story:

Adele is a baby at 1 year old and has spent her whole life living in shelters in Romania and at Oakwood Dog Rescue.

We had a plea from a volunteer rescuer that had just been at the shelter stating that there were 2 pups there that were completely withdrawing into themselves and were starting to shut down. They were very worried that these 2 babies wouldn't survive the winter as they were already so frail, and temperatures had already dropped to -5 degrees. It usually gets to -20 during their winter months.

In the photos, Adele is attached to Beyonce's side. Over time though, these 2 girls have made many new friends and are no longer reliant on each other. They both now kennel share with different dogs and are settled and happy with their groups. Unfortunately, when letting them back together for play dates, it seems that these 2 have really grown apart and no longer enjoy spending time with each other.

Adele has never lived in a home before and so would require time, patience, understanding and lots of positive based training to help her learn the ropes of home life.

Bio:

With other dogs:

Adele loves playing out with the other pups and adult dogs however, she has shown signs of food and toy guarding so if he was to live with another dog, this would need to be very carefully managed. The dog would need to be of similar or larger size than Adele.

With cats:

Adele is untested with cats. Once she is confident enough to allow us to put a collar and lead on her, we can look at taking her for cat testing, until then, there is no safe way to do this where we'd be able to get a true reading.

Active energy

Adele loves nothing more than running around our fields and yards with all of her doggy friends. She's not ready to come inside a minute before the kennel shift is over. Adele has moderate to high energy levels at present.

0 -2 hrs to start

Adele has never before lived in a home. She will need to be left for minimal periods to begin with so she can settle in and realise that she is safe. This time alone (with another dog) can be built up so she'd be able to be left up to around 4 hours

Lead trained

Adele is not yet lead trained. She is still very unsure about being handled and so lead training will come once she has built a bond with her new family
