Phedra

ref: 2005/00865
size: Large
age: 1-2 year old
sex: Female
centre: Battersea
breed: Rottweiler cross Rhodesian Ridgeback
arrived on: 21/02/05
Phedra came into Battersea Dogs Home in February 2005 - she is a about a year old and is Rottweiler X Rhodesian Ridgeback. She is sociable, friendly and a bit stubborn at times but is also sensitive to sound and can be wary of new people and situations. She is only a young dog but acts much older and is mature for her age. She has a lovely temperament and will bond to her new owner/s very quickly.
Phedra has a strong drive to chase and new owners must be experienced and dedicated to train and to channel her energy into something constructive - she tends to be unsettled by meeting new people and will need training so that this doesn't get any worse - all advice will be given by the Rehabilitation Department.
Phedra needs:
? A semi rural home with large garden is prefered as she really does need a bit of extra room.
? A calm, balanced household to go to with people who have had experience with larger breeds like Ridgebacks, Rottweilers, and German Shepherds.
? People who have worked with wary dogs would be a great advantage.
? Owners who want to do training right from the start and continue it.
? A single carer or multi carer as long as leaving hours are minimal to begin with.
? Sorry, no children!
Phedra is such a lovely dog to be around - once away from the Kennels she relaxes and settles well - she has shown great potential and will no doubt be a very rewarding companion. Please call the Rehabilitation Dept on 020 7627 7893 or email us at [email protected] for more information on Phedra
