Sasha's Rehabilitation from Death Row

Sasha unfortunately has not had a great start to life and is only 6mths old.

Sasha was left by her owner tied to a fence at the breeders’ home on Wednesday 27 July.

Breeder tried rehoming her on Saturday 30 July, returned to breeder Sunday 31 July.

I took her into my care on 1 August to try and help out the breeder (mum with young children) and Sasha being “aggressive”. Sasha was listed for euthanasia by the breeder due to nipping a child.

She was shy but not aggressive towards me at all, so I gave her a wash as she was soaked in urine, a feed and then play time and treats before she went to bed.

She has reportedly bitten a dog, cat and male adult – circumstances surrounding these events are not known. She has nipped at a child – circumstances surrounding this unknown but likely to be related to being un-educated.

I removed Sasha from death row after her behavioural assessment on 3 August 2022.
