Hera is one of the many hunting dogs that have either been disposed of or lost on the hunt. She is about 3 and a half years old. She was found and rescued and has now been some time at PAWS.
She has settled in well there, but also shows a certain sadness. Although she has certainly had some bad experiences with people, she is still very fond of them. She enjoys the attention of carers and shows no panic but a degree of caution with people, which is understandable. This is typical of the hounds, because they are usually handled very strictly and know no loving care or even pats.
Hera is very gentle in nature and rather quiet, as she has not yet discovered the right ‘joie de vivre’. When you such a dog a home, you know that they will repay you a thousand times over. To see a dog like Hera let out and playing for the first time is a reward in itself. Pointers are usually very willing to learn and want to please, and we see exactly these traits in Hera.
