Hetty

Hetty arrived at the dog pound unable to eight bear on her foot.  She has since has surgery to repair her leg and is currently convalescing in her foster home.  Hetty is fabulous – she is really happy, friendly and cuddly and she is good with other dogs.

Before applying to adopt, please take a moment to familiarise yourself with the 3-3-3 rule. This is some of the best advice available to help a new dog settle successfully into their new home.

3 days – In the first three days, your dog may feel scared, anxious or overwhelmed. He may also test boundaries as he tries to understand his new environment.

3 weeks – After around three weeks, he should start to feel more settled and become familiar with his routine. This is often when his personality begins to shine through.

3 months – By three months, your new dog will truly understand that this is his home. He’ll feel relaxed, secure and trusting, and much more like himself.
