Callie - West Yorks

Callie is a lovely 2 year old girl looking for a new home due to a change in her owner's circumstances. This is what our volunteer had to say as she visited her home and also took her for a walk.  

On knocking on the door, I could hear Callie barking. On walking into the home, Callie came running to greet me very excitedly. Her tail was wagging and she was wiggling around me for attention. I found her to be very sweet natured. On sitting down, Callie brought me her ball and then another toy and eventually settled on the sofa between her
Mum and I.

Callie has a beautiful silky coat and thoroughly enjoyed being stroked and showed me her tummy, where I gave her a rub. She seemed to thrive on the attention. 

Callie did not respond to verbal commands, however she tilted her head when I clicked my fingers.I took Callie for a walk. She wore a slip lead in a figure of eight to stop her from pulling. Callie tried to get out of this several times, however stopped when she was given an article to carry or if there was somebody to watch.

We passed quite a few people, even men in dark clothes and there was no reaction.
Although, I was talking to her all the time. We passed a couple of smaller dogs on leads, where she did a high pitched bark and pulled to get to them. I did not see any sign of aggression, just a very excited youngster.

In the home, Callie went to sniff the cat on the window sill, which did not work out well for her! She ignored the little boy, despite him walking into her a lot and pushing her out of the way.

I believe that Cassie needs guidance and instructions to be the best that she can be. She is a beautiful, very sweet natured girl and of course, I loved her and as usual wanted to bring her straight home!
