Meet Hermione! Hermione is a lovely young girl who is ready to find a family of her very own. Since arriving at the centre, she has been getting to know the world around her and learning that there are lots of lovely humans out there. Although Hermione can still be a little shy and unsure when meeting new people or experiencing unfamiliar things, she doesn't take too long to warm up with a little patience and reassurance. Once she starts to feel comfortable, her sweet personality really begins to shine through. Hermione is a playful, energetic puppy who has plenty of love and happiness to bring to her future family. She will enjoy having opportunities to explore, play and discover new things, as well as spending quality time with the people she grows to love. She is still learning about the big wide world, so having a family who can gently encourage her, build her confidence and celebrate all those little milestones will be really important. Being a young puppy, Hermione will need someone who is home for a good portion of the day to help her settle into her new environment, continue her toilet training and teach her all the important puppy manners. Puppy school and ongoing positive reinforcement training would also be wonderful ways to help her build confidence and grow into a happy, well-rounded adult dog. Hermione has so much potential and is going to make a family incredibly happy. With a little patience, plenty of love and lots of adventures ahead, we know she has a very special companion waiting to blossom. Could Hermione be the missing piece in your family?
