DragonRam Chewy Zurry

Fifth of the six puppies to go home was Chewy Zurry, who joined her family last Saturday afternoon. Zurry is the pretty chocolate phantom female - but unlike her brother Cumin, Zurry's chocolate is dark and even all over. She may yet fade to a lighter cafe colour, but for now her tan points are very evident against her dark chocolate fur.

Zurry was the quiet, introspective female at our temperament test who "came alive" when a friendly other dog was introduced. This is how the testers describe her:

CAUTIOUS, SENSITIVE, DOG-SOCIAL
Zurry is a sensitive puppy who is cautious about all things new and unfamiliar. She is likely to flee and attempt to hide when frightened. Zurry is food motivated which will be very helpful in desensitizing and conditioning her to the world around her. Once stress is minimized, Zurry is highly trainable and enthusiastic to learn. She will need to be fed primarily by hand through training or by treat toys for the first 2-3 months to teach an association between humans and food and working for food. When with other dogs, Zurry becomes animated and excitable. She would benefit from the guidance and leadership of a calm, adult dog with good behaviour. Zurry’s ideal home would be with a patient and organized owner who has a balanced adult dog.

 Chewy Zurry's new family consits of mom and dad and three childre. They don't have another dog, but they will give her lots of love and care and she will learn to bond with them and find security in her new home.

Interestingly, they chose to call her Chewy - which is the same name her sire's family calls him! (Short for Chewbacca, not because he chews everything!)

Good luck to you, Chewy Zurry and family, and we hope to see you at a Doodle Romp some time!
