Lilac

Description

Successfully rehomed by Battersea Dog Home

Lilac is a friendly and affectionate girl who has taken time to settle here but is growing in confidence every day. She does have a worried side to her nature and will need experienced owners who will give her plenty of time to settle and gradually socialise her with new people and environments to help build her confidence. Once she gets to know you she loves nothing more than to sit on your lap and have a fuss.

Lilac enjoys playing with toys which can be used to help build a bond with her. She takes treats gently and has good motivation for food which can be used to further her training. Lilac can be lured into a sit but will need all basic training but she is eager to learn so training should be fun and rewarding.

Lilac has nice social skills around other dogs and could live with a steady adult dog who will help build her confidence. With patient and understanding owners, Lilac will become a loving and fun addition to the family.
