About Willa

Willa: also known as Willa Woo, Wills, Nelly and Claudia
Willa made the journey from Canada with her playmate Bertie in October 2023. She is a remarkable little lady who everyone is instantly drawn to. Every walk takes much longer than expected because everyone finds her so intriguing.
What breed is she? Will she grow much bigger? Does she moult? She’s a beautiful colour! She’s like a real-life teddy bear... Her fur’s so soft… She’s got incredible eyes!

 

Willa has a kind, human-like face with soulful pale brown eyes and full eye-liner – hence the nickname Claudia (Winkelman). When you sit and talk to Willa it is like chatting with an old and dear friend. She has had an incredible temperament from a very young age – nosy, full of character and funny, yet calm, loving, respectful, tolerant and trusting. She loves nothing more than to be with people – lying at your feet while working, cuddling on the sofa, hanging out in a bustling café or exploring the woods or the beach. While she loves to play, she can occupy herself, when need be, often sitting on the end of a sunbed in the garden watching the world go by. She has no fear of loud noises – everything from fireworks, loud motorbikes, sirens or back-firing cars – she doesn’t even flicker, even when in close range.


Willa’s sharp intelligence has made her a joy to train. She learns new behaviours very quickly. With a little perseverance (and lots of training treats) these behaviours soon become second nature. Willa’s guilty pleasure is taking shoes and bringing them to you as a gift. She has never chewed a shoe, but she does like to shred a tissue!
