Karli

Karli is a total sweetheart who is looking for a relaxed home that has her person home more often than not (ideally retired or working from home full time) and who is looking for companionship. She is a chill and easy-going dog that wants to be part of the family, hanging out at home helping you do the household chores and potter around the house.

Karli walks well on lead with a front clipping harness and while she is able to go past dogs while on walks or take part in social dog walks where everyone is on lead, she can be uncomfortable with other dogs in her personal space. While she does need daily exercise or stimulation, she is not a high energy dog and will be happy with a stroll and sniffari twice a day and some mental stimulation or quick training session at home.

Karli enjoys going for car rides, because it means she can go places with you! She has done some obedience and basic agility and is a dream to train because she gets both treats and your undivided attention! Learning new tricks and having a go at some shits and giggles agility also brings out her fun, cheeky side which will have you in stitches! (Check out her video in her camera roll!)

Karli is very well behaved inside, if in doubt or unsure about something she will take herself to her bed/crate which she loves and where she feels safe. While she doesn’t get fed scraps from the table in her current home she remains hopeful – however if ignored will quickly flop on the floor or under the table and wait until dinner is finished. She has no issue with storms, doesn’t dig, is not destructive and isn’t an escape artist. Karli is crate trained and toilet trained and knows how to use a dog door.

Karli loves people, but will alert bark when someone is at the door or visitors enter the house. Once she has made the first move and sussed new people out, she will do the rounds to collect ear and butt scratches from everyone and lap up all the attention she can get.

This darling girl does have a propensity to being a velcro dog and is prone to separation anxiety. Her new home will need to invest time, patience and most importantly companionship during the initial phase while she is settling into her new surroundings, and ongoing commitment after that to help her relax and learn that some alone time is not the end of the world. But once she comes out of her shell, she will be the most loyal, affectionate and fun-loving doggie companion you’ve ever had.

Karli needs to be an only dog, and cannot share her home with cats, pocket pets or very young children.
