Sprinkles

About Sprinkles

Meet Sprinkles, a gentle little dog who is ready to find a family of his very own. Although he can be nervous at first, it is clear that Sprinkles really wants to make friends and, with a little time and patience, his sweet personality begins to shine through. Sprinkles has had very little experience of everyday life, so many of the things most dogs take in their stride are still new to him. He is looking for kind and understanding adopters who will allow him to settle at his own pace, paying close attention to his body language and giving him the space he needs to build trust and confidence. He could live with gentle and respectful teenagers aged 14 years and over who will understand that friendships with Sprinkles are built on patience and allowing him to come to them in his own time. A home with a very secure garden is essential, giving Sprinkles a safe place to practise wearing a collar and lead while he builds his confidence before venturing further afield. His new family will also need to continue his confidence training using positive, reward based methods to help him discover that the world can be a wonderful place. Sprinkles truly comes into his own when he has a confident canine companion by his side. He takes reassurance from other dogs and enjoys following their lead, so he will need to live with a friendly, confident resident dog. Sprinkles could also be rehomed alongside one of his more confident friends, allowing them to start their new adventures together. With time, patience and plenty of love, Sprinkles has all the potential to blossom into a loyal and devoted companion. If you have a calm home, a confident dog to show him the ropes and are happy to let him find his confidence at his own pace, Sprinkles could be the perfect addition to your family.
