They come to adopt a Collie, but meet Daisy, a dog considered too energetic

Daisy, a one-year-old dog, had a first home before arriving at Dogs Trust Glasgow, a Scottish shelter: her owners at the time considered her temperament too energetic for them and did not feel able to offer her what she needed. It was at this center that Eilidh Rope and her family, originally from Neilston, met her, East Renfrewshire News reported.

That day, the Rope had, however, come with another project in mind: adopting a Collie. Faced with the young Labrador Retriever / Weimaraner cross, the idea did not last long.

Daisy left the shelter in May to settle in with them. “ The placement team does their job very well, because Daisy couldn't be a better match for us “, summary Eilidh.

Hiking, paddle and campervan

From, Daisy has settled into his new home, between long hikes, paddle sessions and trips to the beach aboard the family camper van. Traveling made her uncomfortable at first; today, her family says, she looks out the window excitedly during the ride.

“ Daisy is the best thing (whoever) arrival in our lives », confides Eilidh. Education continues, however, particularly to channel the excitement of Daisy when she meets people, she who, according to her mistress, would like to make everyone her best friend. The young woman describes a student who quickly retains what she is taught, allows herself to be handled and groomed, and even enjoys brushing her teeth.

“It’s wonderful to hear how Daisy is doing and the fulfilling life she’s leading.”

Despite her energy, the dog also knows how to slow down, especially on days when Eilidh works from home. She then seeks contact: sometimes a paw placed on the leg of one of them, sometimes curled up in a ball on their knees on the sofa, as if her 19 kg weighed nothing, the adopter laughs. “ We would recommend Dogs Trust to anyone considering adoption as we are so lucky to have Daisy », she adds.
