More about Lyla (& Bertie)

Meet our delightful pair Lyla & Bertie.

The pair arrived to Battersea with some fellow canine friends from the same home. Lyla & Bertie are timid and sensitive, who have both shown a lot of progress and potential during her stay with us.
Lyla & Bertie have 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 quiet home with a garden in a quiet location so that she can continue to build confidence out on their walks. Bertie has been a little more unsure when walking on lead and has had some additional support from his team onsite, to help be familiar with walking equipment as he has little experience with this.

Lyla & Bertie are looking for owners who are willing to help teach and guide them to learn the ropes and feel at ease taking it one paw at a time.
Lyla & Bertie will no doubt bloom in their new quiet home where they can snuggle into their owners and have some company. We are confident once they has settled into their loving home, they will flourish and it will be the most rewarding journey to bring them out of her shell.

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