Personality:
Lace is a shy girl at first, but with a little encouragement her cheeky, playful personality quickly starts to shine through. Once she feels comfortable, she really comes out of her shell and loves engaging with her people, showing just how human driven she is. She enjoys her own play and is happy to entertain herself, but she is still learning how to play together with her humans. With gentle guidance and encouragement, Lace is sure to grow in confidence and blossom into a fun, interactive companion.
Tamariki – Any age provided correct intros and supervision.
Cats – Overall uninterested in shelter cat.
Kūri – Not phased by other dogs, ongoing socialisation needed due to age.
Stock/poultry – Untested.
Size – Currently 4.3kgs. Likely to mature large in size.
Ideal home:
Lace would thrive in a home with someone who is happy to continue her training and socialisation and help her build confidence at her own pace. She will do best with people who can offer patience, gentle guidance and plenty of positive experiences as she learns that the world is a safe and fun place.
A loving home where she is included in everyday life, given reassurance, and encouraged to explore new things will help her truly shine. With the right support, Lace is sure to blossom into a confident, happy girl who loves sharing life’s adventures with her special people.
Lace is ready to trade her shy first impressions for cuddles, confidence and a whole lot of love with the right person by her side 🐾
