A shy dog is seeking a forever home where she can truly shine.

Bumble, a six-year-old Bedlington Terrier cross Whippet, is currently being cared for by Animal Rescue Cumbria.

The rescue centre describe her as having a "sweet nature" and "lots of potential to blossom in the right home".

She has previously lived with small children and cats and is comfortable with other dogs when introduced gradually.

Bumble is currently building her confidence around new people, so a patient and understanding family would be ideal.

The charity said: "She is an intelligent and sensitive girl who will benefit from consistency and positive reinforcement as she continues her training.

"This will enable her to grow in confidence and become a wonderful companion.

"Bumble enjoys getting out for walks, spending time with other dogs and being part of family life.

"After an adventure, she will be more than happy to settle somewhere cosy with her favourite people.

"Her ideal home will be one where she receives plenty of love, companionship and appropriate exercise, with someone who is happy to continue her training and confidence-building journey."

She would benefit from a secure garden to explore and an environment where she can settle at her own pace.

If you think you could offer Bumble the loving forever home she deserves, visit the Animal Rescue Cumbria website to submit an adoption application form.
