Artemis

🐾 Hello… My name is Artemis (but some call me Arty) 🐾

And this is my story… from my heart to yours.

I am a “pocket pointer” cross, and I’ve traveled a long way to find you. My journey began in Cyprus, where life wasn’t always easy. I was left behind – pregnant and scared—but I did my very best. I raised my beautiful puppies, and thanks to the kind humans at Kaytes rescue, they all found their forever homes. I’m so proud of them, but now, it’s finally my turn.

For a while, I thought I had found my family. A family with children who promised me a home, but sadly, the world had other plans. Because of a war in their home country, they had to leave suddenly and couldn’t come back for me. It was hard to understand why the gate stayed closed, but I never lost hope. I still believe that everything happens for a reason, and that reason has brought me all the way to the UK!

My UK Foster Update 🇬🇧

I’ve been in my UK foster home with my wonderful foster mum, Lesley, and I am thriving! I’ve proven to be a total “people dog.” While I live with an older Vizsla brother named Ziggy and a very dog-savvy cat named CoCo, I’m definitely more interested in my humans than my furry roommates.

If you’re on your phone, I’ll be right there a bit of a “pain in the behind” because I’d much rather you were looking at me! I’m a shadow who will follow you from room to room just to be near you.

Life in the Great Outdoors:

• Mountain Girl at Heart? When we go to the dog field, I love jumping up on the tables—my foster mum thinks I might have lived in the mountains in a past life! I also love exploring by the river.

• Training & Skills: I’m a clever girl and I’m learning fast. I know “Gatsy” (sit) and “Elle” (come), though I’m so focused on my people that I usually come just to my name anyway!

• Learning to Settle: Because I love attention so much, I can be a little demanding, but I’m doing great at learning my “settle.” I love my raggy rope and my ball-on-a-rope though I do have a habit of ripping into fluffy toys!

• Lead Manners: I’ve been practicing my loose-lead walking at the local recreation ground. Even with the excitement of people setting up for the local Parkrun, I did so well and stayed focused as long as I got to have a good sniff!

Family & Friends:

• Cat Approved: I am officially cat-friendly! Videos show CoCo the cat strolling right past me in the lounge and I’m totally uninterested. Even when she walks by, I might stand up and watch, but I have no desire to chase.

• Wonderful with Children: I have a lovely history with children from my time in Cyprus, where I played with them daily. Here in the UK, I’ve been low-key and polite with children at the local pub. I’m always interested and happy to be in the same area as them!

I’m a gentle, soulful girl who has loved and lost, but my heart is still wide open. I’m not just looking for a house; I’m waiting for my people. I’m ready to give you every cuddle, every happy tail wag, and every quiet night curled up beside you.

Could you be the one I’ve been waiting for?

Love always, Artemis (aka Afrodite) 💕
