Babushka

Babushka is an active, flighty, lively girl with a slightly frantic edge. She needs to learn to calm down and have some self control. 'Babs' can become frustrated while on the lead around people and other dogs and she has a very high chase drive which will need to be controlled from day one. Babushka needs a lot of time devoted to her but her new owners will reap the rewards as she really will be something special once she settles down. Babushka requires a lot of guidance and will be a full time project for owners.

Babushka is looking for:
 
.  Owners with expereince of German Shepherd dogs or other high maintenance breeds. Preferably people who have done a lot of training with their previous dogs, focus and chase being the main areas.

.  Semi rural / rural for this young lady, owners will have their work cut out gaining her focus, so minimal distractions are essential.

.  Could live with older teens depending on experience also any children who are visiting on a regular basis will need to be considered.
Babs could live with a steady, older, large male who displays no reactive behaviour. If owners do have a second dog they must realise how much training and time she will need separately. 

.  Not suitable to live with Cats.

Babushka is a great dog with a very sweet and endearing nature, she has all the making of being a smashing pet she's just looking some direction and a lot of time to be devoted to her.
