Lady – 6 year old female Rottweiler
Lady is the most charming Rottweiler who is approximately 6 years old. Lady came into rescue after her family moved and could not take her with them. She spent some time in a sanctuary and now thanks to her wonderful foster family, she has now been assessed in a home, and is currently living with their female Rottweiler.
Lady has lived with children, we would ask that children be aged 8 plus. She is not suitable to live with cats, but could live with other dogs, alone or with farm animals. She has been spayed, micro chipped, wormed and deflead.
Nicknamed ‘Lady Rottingham’ because of her aristocratic demeanour, heres what her foster mum has to say about her -
“She’s adorable, she’s confident and very intelligent and quickly worked out how to open the kitchen door! She’ll do anything for a cuddle and once she likes you, gives you the ‘Rottie lean’ until she’s almost falling over. She’s got a boxer like sense of fun and jumps and claps her hands when we go outside to play. She’s housetrained and clean and calm inside the house. She’s quite nosy and her favourite spot indoors is by the window where she can watch the world, and the birds go by.
She’s not a barker but she’ll give a bark to warn you if people (or foxes!) are about. She’s low-medium energy and loves going for a relatively gentle stroll and then having a snooze indoors.
She has some basic training and walks well on the lead. Being intelligent she’s quick to pick up on what is being asked of her – especially if there is a reward in the form of a treat at the end of it! Off the lead her recall isn’t great as her independent nature means she likes to go off and explore, but she doesn’t wander far. She’s not that interested in ball games or frisbee but likes to chew on a toy.
She’s fine with other dogs and other than a little bark at the horses and ducks has ignored them. Loves people as they are potential sources of cuddles and treats! She’s had a little whine when we put her to bed or popped out but very quickly settled down. Doesn’t chew or destroy anything, and seems fine with household noises such as the washing machine and tumble dryer.
Travels really well and given half a chance would love to stick her head out of the car window! (In this respect she’s been helping Roxy who isn’t too keen on the car.) Overall she’d be great for someone who would love a large breed but wants a gentle, calm and cuddly companion rather than a boisterous bundle”
If you can offer our ‘Lady Rottingham’ the forever home she is looking for, please get in touch with the rescue. Given Lady is a more mature girlie, we are happy to accept a donation of your choice.
