Cathy, Pointer x Collie ?Lurcher, DOB 2011 – Godstone, Surrey


Homing Requirements: Cathy needs a dog experienced family who can support her energy on a lead and control dog encounters as she is keen. Cathy needs a secure garden with 6' panel fencing and good door and gate security. Cathy can suffer from car sickness at this stage but may settle once familiar with regular journeys.

Her Story: Cathy was surrendered into the pound in May 2013. Cathy came to us at the end of August and is settling in the kennel environment which is challenging for her. Cathy wants to meet and enjoys contact with other dogs. Cathy is neutered, chipped and fully vax'd. Cathy is in kennels near Gatwick, West Sussex.

Advert: Cathy has a keen friendly energy. Her socialisation needs further work but her foundation is strong. Cathy is clean in her kennel and welcomes strangers and all with affection. Cathy isn't ready to be off lead as her enthusiasm is a little too full on unless her encounters are controlled; she welcomes meeting dogs and doesn't like to held back as she would love a few run arounds!

Cathy is a crossbreed, possibly with Pointer x Collie Lurcher genes. She is visually astute and intelligent. Her instincts are good and she is learning in situ as best as our circumstances allow but she needs a worthy home to bring her through and offer her the foundation she so deserves.

Please note that this dog is currently in boarding kennels and is also available for foster until a 'forever' home is found.

Cathy went into temporary foster a while ago and they have hung on to her to save her going into kennels again. Here is an update and pics from Cathy's fosterer:

"OK so the weekend has been extended but can you blame us? Cathy is a big adorable chocolate lump, so cuddly and gentle. She has quickly adapted into family life with only one little accident but after over a year in kennels that is pretty good. Her personality is beginning to shine and her energy levels are improving. She ventured slightly further outside today but wants to return to home comforts after a short walk.

Cathy will be a lovely family pet. She is gradually getting used to the cats being next door and has had a warning hiss which was enough to send her in the opposite direction! Some photos of Cathy with our nephew Hakim enjoying cuddles".










Cathy is still available for adoption – if you are interested in offering Cathy a home please complete our homing questionnaire
