Are you right for Peaches?

Peaches is a wonderful young girl and will flourish in a quieter home set up with patient adopters. Exposure to ‘the real world’ has been limited so confidence with day-to-day life needs building up. Making friends can take a couple of meets but the reward of seeing her energetic and playful side shine through makes it all worth it! In the home everyone should be at least in their teens and there should be no other dogs. Further socialisation and basic training will need continuing. As she grows into a more confident adult she’ll enjoy more challenging activities – especially those that are scent based.

Is Peaches right for you?

Introducing Peaches! An adorable young German Shepherd with a heart of gold. With support and guidance her confidence will continue to grow. Her affectionate side shines through with those she has strong relationships with. She’s discovered the joys of play and using her nose in enrichment games. She favourites walks that take place in more peaceful areas free from distractions. It’ll be very rewarding to watch Peaches blossom as she gradually learns more about the world.
