A young Dutch Herder who was found roaming the streets just days before Christmas is hoping to find a family to spend the summer, and the rest of her life with. The three-year-old dog, aptly named Dutch after her breed, was found as a stray on December 23 last year.
Dutch has since spent 143 days waiting for the perfect family to take her on long adventures where she can experience new and exciting places. She’s an active dog thanks to her working genes, as Dutch Shepherds were originally bred as herding dogs. As a result, the young pooch is looking for a home where she can really get involved in exploring.
Currently residing at Manchester Dogs Trust, a spokesperson for the charity said: “Dutch loves exploring and happily hops straight in the back of the car ready for her next adventure. She also loves playing with her soft and squeaky toys and has been enjoying sunbathing with a tennis ball!”
