Gorgeous Mabel is a 7 year old Cockapoo who is currently being cared for in a foster home in Gloucestershire provided by Starfish Dog Rescue. She is living in an adult family home with visiting grandchildren and dogs.
Mabel is a darling little girl who came into rescue through very sad circumstances, having been with her previous owner since she was a puppy. She has settled quickly with her foster family. She sleeps with them at night, likes to know where you are and has a strong bond with her foster Mum, though she is also friendly with her foster Dad.
Mabel is a gentle, sweet-natured girl who really just wants to be with people. She is fine being left for a few hours, though she sometimes howls a little when her foster mum goes out, as she’s very attached to her. If you are an active person or couple looking for a devoted little companion, Mabel could be your perfect match.
Mabel isn’t particularly interested in other dogs but is fine meeting them out and about. She’s good with visitors, enjoys her walks and travels well in the car. She has been used to visiting children before and it’s the same in her foster home with visiting grandchildren aged 8 plus, so she would be fine with young visitors.
However, Mabel’s ideal home will be a calm, adult household with someone around most of the time. This is what she is used to and where she will truly thrive. She does seem to prefer women, but she will happily accept fuss and friendship from men too.
Mabel has been health-checked, treated for a sore ear (which is healing well), started her vaccinations, is flea/worm treated and spayed. You can watch some lovely videos of her here.
