Millie is a sweet affectionate girl but needs a very experienced owner. She was apparently given to a gentleman on a walker at 6 weeks of age. She was used to being locked in a bathroom daily without any socialization, engagement or training. His grandkids scalded her when giving her first bath so she is terrified of baths. She used to always jump up a doorhandle in the bathroom and this behaviour has continued on doors. She does not trust people easily and barks at new people and any noise she heard. By 8 months of age, she was given up. A compassionate person who knew of her, took Millie into her family but soon found that Millie could not cope with usual domestic sounds in a busy household with older kids.
We have clipped Millie under sedation as she does not cope with clippers and successfully bath her in a hydrobath. Millie is looking for a quite adult home with only few visitors. The quieter the household, the calmer Millie is. She needs to be introduced to visitors a few times. She would also do well with another active small doggy pal to play with. She is very social with other small dogs. For her breed she is incredibly active and bouncy. She likes to sleep on furniture, a bit like a cat, rather than on the ground in a bed. She loves toys to play with and enjoys attention and affection from people she trusts. She is in that teenage stage so she is quite chewy. She has a non-shedding coat and weighs 7.9kg.
