Patatas (Bravas)
About This Dog
Patatas (Bravas)'s ideal home
Meet Patatas, a delightful 2-year-old Poodle mix eagerly searching for a loving, patient home. Patatas is a bit shy when meeting new people, so an adult-only home would be ideal for her. She takes time to trust, but once she does, she’ll be your loyal companion. Her cautious nature means she’s still adjusting to the outside world, and while she isn’t ready for walks yet, she’s made incredible progress at the center. To help her bond with new adopters, a few visits to the center are recommended before setting a home date. Patatas has lived with other dogs in her past, so she might enjoy having a canine companion, provided food management and introductions at the center go smoothly. She could also potentially live with a cat, given careful introductions.
Could you be Patatas (Bravas)'s perfect match?
Patatas came from a challenging background and will need a home where she can explore the world at her own pace. She’s playful, loves zoomies, enjoys toys, and has a silly side once she’s comfortable. She requires ongoing support with housetraining and confidence building, and having someone around most of the time will be beneficial. A garden is essential for her as she settles in and learns housetraining. Patatas is not yet comfortable with wearing a harness, so gradual work on this will be necessary, with guidance from our Behaviour Team. They will also provide an introduction plan for visitors to help her feel secure around strangers. Patatas will need to travel home in a crate and prefers a hands-off approach during initial meetings, as she’s cautious around new people and fast movements.
She is also apprehensive about grooming and vet visits, requiring a muzzle for fear-based reactivity. Our training team is ready to support her success in these areas. Patatas is a special dog who, with the right home, will flourish and become a cherished member of the family.
