Introducing... Elfreda!

Elfreda's Story:

Elfreda has travelled to us all the way from Vietnam via Vietnam Animal Aid.

Back in January 2020, at just 9 months old, little Elfreda was found blind and all scraped up at a temple. She was just standing there looking completely lost and helpless.

Luckily Elfreda was found and taken in for the love and care that she so badly needed. Over the weeks and months, her cuts and brusies healed and amazingly, she also got her sight back.

She is absolutely terrified of motorbikes and we wonder if she was hit by one to create all of her injuries, that were severe to enough to cause temporary blindness.

Elfreda has been waiting to be adopted in Vietnam for 4.5 years - without a single application.

She is a very loving girl, and we are told she has many funny quirks. We will be sure to update on these once we have got to know her a little better.

With other dogs:

Elfreda has only mixed with a couple of dogs at Oakwood so far. She has done well on both mixes but we were told by Vietnam animal aid that she will get excited and bark in a dogs face until they play with her - which is exactly what she did. Some dogs are not going to like this, others we know it will just be part of the game. We will do more dog mixing as she settles in with us

With cats:

We were told by Vietnam animal aid that Elfreda gets on well with cats so we will be taking applications for homes with cats in them although we will do cat testing ourselves too, once she has settled in.
