Sweet Huntaway X (free) for Loving Home
Lola is a sweet and clever, 3 year old Huntaway X (likely heading dog), who is looking for her forever home - a calm and consistent environment, ideally rural/lifestyle.
Lola would thrive being the only pet of a loving, patient handler.
She is a quick learn, sensitive, eager to please and treat-driven - which makes training much easier.
From 12 weeks old she has loved life with us, her adoptive family, a vibrant household (two kids, nearly 10 & 13) on a lifestyle property in Auckland.
Through no fault of her own, the increasing stress of urgent health needs in our family means we can no longer give Lola the attention and care she deserves - or a more calming environment. Additionally, she still hasn't adjusted to living with our older cat. We adore Lola and are gutted to arrive at the decision to rehome.
Lola is:
*Affectionate, energetic, playful and intelligent.
*Spayed, vaccinated, registered and chipped.
*House trained and crate trained
*Loves people - big and small. One pat is never enough!
*Loves tug of war, chasing after balls/frisbees.
*Enjoys epic forest adventures with her mum
*Knows most commands but still learning consistency with recall around distractions (dogs & cats)
*Can be jumpy (excited) with new people, but is learning
*Walks well with her halti on
Lola is NOT good with cats (likes to herd them) or other dogs; (BUT with the patience and training of an experienced handler she could potentially learn from a chilled adult dog.)
She has not been around chickens or stock but her herding instincts are strong, so don't recommend it (unless she has the appropriate training).
She would need an active owner who is ideally experienced with working-dogs to continue the good training her mum is doing and to keep up her daily exercise.
A home-check will be conducted with potential adopters.
