Description
Zara is a beautiful bure bred GSD born in Romania on the 27 June 2019 who came into rescue due to her disability. She has been with us in the UK since November 2019 and now we would love to find a very special home for this very special girl.
Zara was born with issues in her hips where her hip and ball joints did not form properly so do not stay in place so they move about which she moves. Zara in NOT incontinent. Even though Zara is quite long and tall she still copes well and isn’t in any pain. She loves running round the garden and playing so needs a nice big garden and lots of space.
We do have some wheels that can fit her, however as she isn’t actually paralysed her back legs don’t bend and they point forward a typical cart doesn't work so well but there may be different options that can be explored. We do need her home to have an understanding vet who is willing to work with us if necessary for any decisions on her future treatment.
Zara adores loves everybody. She gets on great with most dogs especially little dogs and could potentially live with another small dog. She is not as happy with bigger dogs and can sometimes growl and snap but will never start a fight. She could also live with children and she is a lovely soul.
Zara does have a sensitive stomach which is a common problem in GSDs. She has had lots of tests and there is nothing wrong but it can be a problem keeping weight on her as she doesn’t process food properly. She is on a special diet and takes probiotics at the moment. As a result she is skinny. This is a balance for Zara as being lighter helps her get about and having too much weight on her may limit her mobility.
Zara is fine on a lead, travels great in the car and happy at the groomers. Zara has not been tested with cats but we think she would be ok with them. Zara is currently in foster in Ayr.
Zara would be perfectly happy in a home where she never goes for a walk as long as she has a big garden to run around and people to give her love and attention. She will sit and ask for attention as she loves a cuddle. If you this you can offer Zara the extra special home and family she needs we would really like to hear from you.
