More about Blake

Meet Blake, our beautiful 6 year old pocket Bully lady.

Blake came to us as, unfortunately, her previous owner's circumstances changed beyond their control and they could no longer look after her.

She is a sensitive soul and has struggled adapting to life in kennels. With the consistent love and care of her known people she has gradually been coming out of her shell and we are beginning to see her true, sweet personality shining through. She has been worried by a lot of the things the big wide world has to offer, so new owners should be prepared to build up her confidence slowly, and once bonded with her, give her the reassurance and training needed for her to blossom.

Blake can be unsure when meeting people for the first time, but is loving and affectionate once she builds a bond with you – she will make the ideal chilled, cuddly sofa buddy but will take time to get there! She will need owners who are happy and willing to give her the time that she needs to make friends with them as she settles into her new life, and who can advocate for her out and about so that she doesn’t get overwhelmed.

Although Blake has been able to make some dog friends here, and enjoys a chilled walk with them, she has at times been a bit worried around dogs, especially if they are more on the exuberant side; so she will need owners with a little experience of socialising dogs, who are willing to help her make the right choices around possible playmates.

Life in general can be a little scary at times for Blake, but she has been making great strides in building her confidence here at Battersea, and she would love owners who help her find her way in the big, wide world a little at a time. This sensitive girl would prefer to live a quieter location so she isn't overwhelmed with too many things at one time.

Once Blake has chosen you, you're in it for life and you will see the side of Blake that not many get to see. If you are ready to welcome this quiet, sweet-natured lady into your home, she'll be your loyal companion forever!
