Introducing Phoenix 🐦‍🔥 Meet Phoenix, a 12-week-old Dutch Herder, bred by Nicole. Ivy / mum @nicolexlittle Spyder / dad @theworkingpair I’m incredibly excited to have been given the opportunity to raise, develop and train this phenomenal little girl up to working standard, before eventually placing her within the working-dog world with the right experienced handler. Already, Phoenix is showing me exactly what she’s made of. She’s drivey, confident, switched on and definitely going to be a handful, but the very good kind. Alongside all that drive, she’s incredibly loving and already showing some really nice stability in the home. At just 12 weeks old she’s settling beautifully, hasn’t cried in the crate at all and is already toileting outside on command. She’s showing plenty of drive and potential, and I’m really excited to see how she develops. It’s still very early days, so right now it’s all about building strong foundations and allowing her to show me what she’s capable of. I can’t wait to document her journey and show you her progress over the next few months. Eventually, Phoenix will be looking for a working home with an experienced handler only. She will not be sold purely as a pet, and the priority will always be finding the right person and working environment for the dog she develops into. If you think Phoenix could potentially be what you’re looking for in the future, feel free to get in touch. Serious enquiries from experienced working-dog handlers only. For now, I’m excited to see what the future holds for Phoenix and where her journey takes her 🐦‍🔥 #fyp #phoenix #dutchherder #dogtrainer
