Desdemona
Hound (Unknown Type)
My story
Gentle, Shy and AffectionateAt just 8 months old, Desdemona is still discovering the world. She`s a sweet, sensitive girl who needs a little time to feel comfortable, but once she trusts you, she`ll happily come looking for attention and chin scratches (her favourite)BIO: - Mixed Breed, 8 months old, Female (spayed)- Medium-size (34 b), Medium-energy- Unclaimed stray from Antigua- Desdemona is house-trained, microchipped and has her core vaccinationsABOUT DESDEMONA: - A very shy and cautious girl who takes time to warm up to people and surroundings.- Once she feels comfortable, she`ll happily seek out attention and affection. - Very playful, loves her toys- Sound-sensitive, she can be startled by loud noises, busy environments and traffic.- She hasn`t learned her basic obedience cues just yet, but she loves liver treats, so there`s a great opportunity to make training fun!DESDEMONA’S IDEAL HOME:- A home with a patient person where she can settle into a routine and build confidence and trust at her own pace- She loves being outdoors and would enjoy having a backyard to explore.- A neighbourhood in a quieter area, away from heavy traffic and constant urban noise which can overwhelm or startle her- A home with access to a backyard, an elevator may be too intimidating for her- On the quieter, side, shared walls may be fine- She may do well with older children that are dog savvy and understand slower and calmer is better- Desdemona may be good with other pets in the home, if her potential adopter has a cat we will arrange for a meet and greetDesdemona is a calm dog looking for a calm home where she can settle in and shine!If you have any questions about Desdemona, contact her Adoption Coordinator at: dog.adoption.coordinator.1@etobicokehumanesociety.com
