Are you right for Nora?

Meet Nora, the beautiful 3 year old Labrador who is looking for her forever home. She has come into us with very limited history but the little info we do have showed her having a high prey drive and potential to chase traffic. She hasn’t had much experience of life as of yet and is struggling with adjusting to new environments. She isn’t the greatest fan of other dogs and can be reactive so will need a home where she is the only pet. Nora would thrive in quiet area, she’s an intelligent girl and is already housetrained. She can live with secondary school age children and above and would blossom in a home with some training and love. A secure garden is a must, so she can explore all her sniffs and have zoomies, a 6ft fence will also be needed as she can be an escape artist. Owners who have experience with this breed will be best suited for Nora as she does has a high prey drive but our training team is always on hand to support you before and after Nora goes home.

Is Nora right for you?

Nora enjoys her car travels whether that’s a quiet trip to the woodlands or a nice stroll round the park. She is a clever girl and already knows a few tricks and she is willing to learn more if some tasty treats are involved. Nora is toy obsessed, she loves nothing more than chasing her squeaky toys and she is planning to be Wimbledon’s next ball gir! In summary, Nora is a sweet girl who would flourish in a home where her owners boosts her confidence and show her the real world.
