My name is Bambi - Kitchener!

Say hello to Bambi! Bambi is a sweet and lovable dog who's eagerly awaiting her forever home! This lil lady is ready to snuggle up with you on the couch and play to her heart's content. Bambi's got a bit of a sassy side (she's a woo girl!) which adds to her silly personality. Bambi will be sure to make you smile!

**Bambi has a discounted adoption fee to help find her a furrever home! Please note that applicants are still required to follow our adoption process and meet the requirements of this pet in order to be approved to adopt**

~ Bambi is an older dog and will need a modest amount of daily exercise. She tires out after a ~30 minute walk and yearns for a nap on the couch. She walks very well on a leash.

~ Bambi loves squeaky toys, she'll play by herself chasing after the toys and loves a good game of keep-away. It is not recommended to play any tugging games as she has minimal teeth
~ Bambi is looking for a quiet home to call her own
~ She would do best in a home with a single person, couple or family with older children
~ Bambi would love to find a home with minimal stairs as her age doesn't let her move around like it used to
~ Bambi will need to be signed up for training prior to going into her fur-ever home to ensure she builds her confidence

Regularly Exhibited Behaviours Noticed:
- Nervous/shy
- Under-Socialized
- Reactvity

Explanation of Behaviours:
- Bambi can be a little shy/nervous with new people, in new environments and in new situations. Her new family should be ready to slowly work with her on socialization so she is more comfortable and confident with interactions and situations.
- While Bambi was in foster care it was noted that she is reactive to strangers coming into the home. This requires the ability to manage her environment, as people enter and exit. A positive reinforcement trainer should be utilized as soon as possible to help work with this behaviour.

This dog would benefit from:
- A quieter home
- A home with minimal stairs due to her mobility and age
- A family consisting of older children or all adults
- Socialization
- Training

Training needs/behaviours that need to be worked with for this dog:
- Socialziation
- Reactivity to visitors entering the home
