I'm not quite ready to go to my new home.

Paisley

I'm in the Recovery Room - I'll Be Available Soon

CLARINGTON, ON

Paisley is a 3 year old standard poodle (mix because she is merle). Paisley was released from a puppy mill. She has obviously had house time as she is clearly used to people and knows some things like sit, wait, shake a paw and such.
Paisley is now settled in her foster home in Clarington, ON. On her wellness check a lump was discovered on her back that was concerning and she has had a procedure to investigate what that lump is all about. It turned out to be benign and the vet feels it will not be a bother for her. She will be spayed in a month or so and will then be ready to accept adoption applications. Stay tuned as we introduce Paisley to some new adventures like leash walking and visiting  with the wobbly toddlers. We will keep her profile updated and you can follow her progress on the SPIN Facebook page.
**UPDATE FEBRUARY** Paisley has had the opportunity to explore her world and is doing really well! She's quite happy to watch the wobbly toddlers play and is most helpful with clean-up duty when they are around...food on the floor? She's got it! Food on their faces...she's got that too! (LOL) Paisley walks really well on a lead - no pulling - and is comfortable on busy streets or in the woods. She's been to the local pub for a visit and laid quietly while her foster mom visited with friends. She was curious about the people coming and going and was comfortable walking through the pub. She is a stoic, quiet, gentle girl...her playful side is starting to emerge and she occasionally asks for some silly playtime with her foster folk. Paisley is truly a wonderful dog!
**UPDATE MARCH** Paisley continues to really do very well in our home. There have been visitors over and after a few minutes of sussing things out from a wee distance, she approaches for attention with her tail wagging. She continues to be fine on pack walks but is always on a leash and walks near us while the other dogs run about - she doesn't seem to mind being on a lead. Paisley seems more "people" oriented than "dog" oriented and may actually do well as an only dog in the home. She would, however, really love it if someone was home most of the day to play and hang out with her. The wobbly toddlers are becoming some of her favourite people and she's always happy to see them. She's mastered the basement stairs and enjoys a good tv show....especially if it features any kind of dog!
