Darling little lady Sylvi is precious beyond! She has captured all of our hearts with her bravery and desire to trust human friends. When Syvli first came to us a few weeks ago, she was absolutely terrified and stayed hiding in the corner.. poor girl! If we began to approach, she'd show us her pearly white teeth in a last ditch effort to ask for space. We, of course, respected this and gave her all the space she wanted! She has a sweet set up in the office with Michelle who she Sylvi bonded with straight away.. after a few days of relaxation, Sylvi now greets Michelle with little jumps and uncontrollable tail wags! You'll often see Sylvi tucked comfy in her bed on Michelle's desk! She seems to like her little perch! ​

After some getting used to time, Sylvi accepted the leash being placed over her head and we went on on our first walk! You could see her guard just fall away. She was having a BLAST! Still concerned with her outside world.. but she was present, taking it all in and enjoying her new found freedom. I sat beside her and she leaped into my lap! Oh what a gift to have this timid little angel seek safety in closeness to me! (trainer Jamie) We encountered some horses along the way and Sylvi looked up at them in curiosity and moved on.. like it was no big deal! She has an amazing spirit.

Sylvi is learning her new routine and beginning to get comfortable with all the handlers now.. going on walks with other dogs and greeting us when we walk in instead of hiding in the back!

Gaining Sylvi's trust will take time, patience and lots of reading her body language.. oh and some yummy chicken! How rewarding it has been to watch her blossom though. Sylvi enjoys the company of other dogs that don't bug her. She will have no problem telling them to give her some space! If you are reading this and thinking you might be a good fit for Sylvi, please fill out an application!
