Darcy

Description

Successfully rehomed by Battersea Dog Home

Darcy is a sweet, sensitive soul who has a lot of love to give.

She is nervous at first with new people, but once she comes around she is incredibly loyal and loving.

Darcy generally finds new experiences daunting, so she is looking for a quiet home with a family who have owned nervous dogs in the past and understand their needs. They will need to give her lots of time and space to find her feet gradually and learn that the world is not such a scary place after all.

She does not appear to have had much previous training, so her new owners will need to start from scratch with a gentle, encouraging approach.

Darcy will a lovely companion once settled in the right home.
