My name is Sheila and I am looking for a loving and patient forever home where I can grow my confidence and build trust with my new family.
I have a gentle nature and have adjusted fairly well to shelter life – but it’s not ideal. I really need experienced dog owners who will understand the needs of a nervous dog and have the patience to work with me. My ideal home would have a secure garden where I can feel safe and explore.
I suppose you could describe me as ‘nervous but willing’. The longer I spend with someone the braver I become. I may be shy, but I would be eager to learn.
I share a pen with Maverick and we get on very well together. I think I would be OK with other dogs as well.
Whilst I am not a spring chicken, I am in good health and ready to become part of a family.
In short, my ideal home is somewhere with a secure garden and patient people who understand that trust takes time. I have been in PAWS for most of my life (5 years and counting!) so I don’t actually remember much about life before I came here. I may have lived in a home and had some training, but who knows?! I guess when you adopt me, we’ll have to assume that I know nothing.
I would really love to become a much-loved member of a caring family, where I can experience love and patience.
Thank you for considering me as your future companion!
If you are interested in adopting me or would like more information about adopting in general, then send an email to colleenatpaws@outlook.com, or send a private message to PAWS Dog Shelter in Paphos, Cyprus (remember to include your email), or better still come to the shelter to see me.
All PAWS dogs are fully vaccinated, health-checked, spayed/neutered (if old enough), and microchipped and ready to become part of your family! Our team at PAWS is dedicated to ensuring a smooth transition from shelter to home. We provide ongoing support post-adoption (including rescue backup should it be needed), and our home check process is designed to create the perfect match for both you and your new family member.
Don’t live in Cyprus? Don’t worry! There are no restrictions on dogs flying from Cyprus to the UK or other European countries – travel costs will apply.
