This little girl is wormed, vaccinated & microchipped. She needs a nice quiet home where she will get all the love and attention she deserves. She still has plently of pep in her step and still enjoys her daily walks.
mol.jpg Mollie, you are lovely and 9 is not really old for a terrier, you are more or less middle-aged . Everything that needs to be done appears to have been done so you just need the job of companion to someone. You are now on my list .In my humble opinion, based on my personal experience of fostering quite a few dogs in my time,
…older dogs rule.
I would say to anyone looking here to adopt and thinking "Mollie is a little bit older than I was looking for"…. Think Again.
On that subject… of all the old sayings that I have ever heard, "you can’t teach an old dog new tricks" is the most nonsensical. All dogs, including older dogs, love the one-on-one attention that training brings. Older foster dogs have arrived in our home and looked at us in confusion when we’ve asked them to sit, stay or come. With the use of a few treats and some basic training they quickly learn how things work in their new home.
This post is born out of my great love of older dogs.
I can only agree wholeheartedly with Justinemoe’s comments……puppies are, of course, delightful but there is nothing to compare with the love and affection an older dog will reward you with. I’m trying desperately hard to avert my eyes from photos of Mollie………temptation beyond endurance!!!!!
Molly has never lived with cats so it would be hard to know if she could live with them.
Molly is a middle aged dog who’s looking for a new home as her previous owner is returning to work full time and doesn’t want to leave her alone all day.
She’s so cute and sweet and loves to watch TV especially Game of Thrones and the Dog Whisperer.She’s very gentle and affectionate – no issues with food aggresssion but she’s not really sure how to behave around other dogs and children so perhaps best suited to a quiet home where she won’t be bothered too much. She has lots of little quirks – loves to sit with her head on the ground and her bum in the air wagging her tail – adorable!
She’s house trained and is well past the chewing stage so your furniture and shoes are safe in her presence
She really is the sweetest little dog and I’d love to keep her myself if circumstances allowed but she could benefit from a house with a garden and someone who can take her for regular walks.
She’s also a great little guard dog – her bark sounds much bigger than her size but she will settle down when told to stop barking and she doesn’t get upset if you leave her in the car for a few minutes or alone in the house.moldol.jpgLook what a little dote, can’t understand why she hasn’t found her forever home yet, she’s absolutely
adorable.Mollie I’m stunned that you are still waiting for a forever home.
You are adorable and sound like the perfect lady. 9 years is really only middle age … we have an 8 year old terrier who behaves like the Durracell Bunny!! I’m sure your foster family are treating you like a princess, but I have fingers and toes crossed that your happy ever after comes along very soon.
