❤️🐶 ZAYKA – A Bright Young Girl Back For Rehoming Due to Mismatch With Resident Dog🐶❤️
🐾 Why Zayka Is Back
Zayka arrived in the UK at the beginning of February and went to what everyone hoped would be her forever home. The family were kind, committed and even involved a behaviourist when challenges appeared.
Sadly, it became clear that the match was not right — not because of Zayka’s character, but because her presence significantly increased the anxiety and reactivity of the resident dog. The existing dog began to regress and struggle, and both dogs were feeding off each other’s heightened stress.
There was also an incident in the garden where, during excited play, the dogs chased and trapped one of the resident cats. It was frightening for the family and confirmed that this was not the safe, balanced environment Zayka needs.
The decision was made with care and honesty. Zayka deserves a home that suits her energy and stage of life — and the resident dog deserved peace.

🐕 More About Zayka
In the home, Zayka is loving and lively. She enjoys being close to her humans and thrives with attention and engagement. She is intelligent and responsive, and benefits from training, structure and guidance.
She is a high-energy youngster and needs plenty of exercise. She enjoys play, especially in a secure garden off leash, and would suit a home with open countryside, space and active routines. She is also a strong chewer and will need robust chew toys and management.
The recent trial showed that she is not suited to living with an anxious or reactive dog, as she can amplify existing tension. She will thrive with a stable, non-reactive dog who can model calm behaviour and same time loves to play, but able to control it and not going too much.
🏡 Ideal Family
Zayka needs an active household where she is the main focus. A large, secure garden and not too busy/urban environment is important. She will suit people who enjoy long walks, outdoor time and structured play. She needs engagement, exercise and clear boundaries — not low-energy environment.
She is a good, lively young dog who simply needs the right setting to channel her energy.
💞 Zayka is not “too much” and loves both play and quite cuddles — she is just young, bright and full of life. In the right home, with the right balance, she will flourish.
