More about Bertie (& Lyla)

Meet our delightful pair Lyla & Bertie.

The pair arrived to Battersea with some fellow canine friends from the same home. Lyla & Bertie were initially timid and sensitive, but have both shown a lot of progress and potential during their stay with us.
Lyla & Bertie had very little experience with the outside world and with gentle and gradual exposure with their humans here at Battersea, they have shown to gain some self esteem each day. For this reason they are both looking for a home ideally with a garden with access to quiet walking routes so that they can continue to build confidence out on their walks.

Lyla & Bertie are looking for owners who are willing to help show them the ropes and feel at ease taking it one paw at a time.
Lyla & Bertie will no doubt bloom in their new home where they can snuggle into their owners enjoying all the company. We are confident once they has settled into their loving home, they will continue to flourish.

Lyla & Bertie have both shown some lovely social skills with people, however they will need ongoing training in the home to teach them to come away if they are uncomfortable.
Overall, new owners will need to be patient and willing to help them build the confidence that they need as they embark on their newest chapter.
