Pebbles was born in March 2020 to Blanca, one of our earliest rescued dogs, in a litter of nine. She and five others survived, two have been adopted, and she is one of four still waiting for their new home.
Pebbles has always been the most fearful and nervous of her siblings. She is also lot smaller than her siblings.
Pebbles
pebbles' STORY
Pebbles was born just outside the shelter to one of the dogs we took from the another Animal Welfare shelter in 2019.
Blanca with puppies Annie, Freddy and Pebbles
Her mother Blanca was always very unsociable and escaped from the Sanctuary a couple of days after we brought her in. She never went far but also never came close enough for us to catch her. She gave birth to nine pups outside the shelter in March 2020. Three puppies died, six survived.
Pebbles as a puppy
Despite being brought up in the shelter, all the pups were really unsociable – we just couldn’t get near them.
Like her siblings, she is very healthy but she is still so very shy. The others are now much more interested in people but Pebbles still runs and hides if anyone goes near her.
We even put all the puppies in quarantine kennels for a few weeks to try to socialize, but it didn’t work – they were so resistant to human contact. We hope that with continued exposure to the staff and volunteers, she might see that there's nothing to be afraid of, and she will become a little more brave.
