Meet Winnie

Gentle Pointer Mix Looking for the Right Home
This lovely girl is around 6 years old and weighs 14kg, a beautiful Pointer mix with so much potential just waiting to be unlocked.
She hasn’t had the easiest start in life and hasn’t known much affection, so she can be a little wary of people at first. But underneath that uncertainty is a curious, gentle dog who really wants to connect—she just needs the right person to help her feel safe.
💛 Her personality:
Very good with other dogs – she thrives in their company
Loves long walks – a perfect companion for someone active
Enjoys car rides – always ready for an adventure
Inquisitive and aware – she likes to know where you are
Food motivated – treats are a great way to build her confidence
🌱 Her journey so far:
She’s already made amazing progress in foster:
Comfortable wearing a collar and lead
Learning what it means to walk nicely and explore the world
Socialised with other dogs and enjoying group walks
She’s shown that once she allows contact, she relaxes quickly—which tells us everything about the dog she can become.
🏡 The home she needs:
She’s looking for someone who understands that love sometimes means patience and guidance, not just cuddles straight away.
Her ideal home would:
Have other friendly dogs to help build her confidence
Have someone around more consistently to continue her progress
Be willing to gently guide her through her worries, rather than letting her avoid them
Use simple tools (like a light lead indoors initially) to help her feel secure and prevent her from retreating when unsure
She doesn’t need pressure—she needs calm, consistent reassurance.
❤️ Why she’s special:
This is a dog who wants to be close. You can see it in her curiosity, in how she watches you, in how she softens once she feels safe.
With the right person, she will learn that:
👉 touch is safe
👉 closeness is comforting
👉 and cuddling up next to you is one of the best things in the world
🐶 In the right home, she will absolutely blossom.
If you’re someone who finds joy in helping a dog grow in confidence and trust—and you want a loyal companion to take on life’s walks with you—she could be your perfect match.
If you’d like to meet her or find out more, please get in touch 💛
Winnie is currently in foster in UK. She is vaccinated, chipped, treated for parasites, comes with her own pet passport and rescue back up from Saving Souls Animal Rescue.
