More about Heidi

Heidi is a lovely, sweet natured dog who loves nothing more than being with her favourite humans which is a why she will be best suited to a home with multiple people. Heidi is based at our Old Windsor site.

Heidi is excitable and friendly with everyone she meets and will often seek fuss and attention from new people and may climb on their laps if given the chance.

She has lived with school age children before and would sit with them with no issues and she loves nothing more showing off her tricks, such as a sit, paw and a twirl. She also shared her home with a cat so could live with a dog savvy cat.

Heidi has been both independent and playful with dogs she has met here at Battersea. She prefers humans so would like a home where she is the centre of attention. As a result of this, she would be best suited to being the only dog in the home but will enjoy having some walking and play friends.

Heidi is only having short walks as she can become a little worried in the big wide world Heidi’s new owners will need to build this up gradually and understand that she is not wanting to go on lots of long walks to start with.

She has been spending time in a temporary foster home where she loves nothing more than snuggling up with her foster carer any chance she gets. Her foster carer described her as 'Her ideal life would be to spend all day, every day sleeping the day away whilst laid over her people/person on the sofa! She has zero spacial awareness! She loves to just be with you and know where you are'

Heidi will also be better suited to living in a quieter location as she can be of worried of loud noises such as fireworks. The use of her own garden to exercise in and sunbathe when the weather allows will help as she builds in confidence in her new area.

Heidi has enjoyed playing with soft toys but ultimately prefers spending time with her favourite humans.

Any potential new owner will need to talk to a Battersea Vet before rehoming Heidi. Heidi has had clinical treatment during her stay and new owners will need to comfortable managing her needs in the future.
