TO BE ADOPTED ON A NEUTERING AND TRAINING AGREEMENT

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

ACTIVE, TERRIER EXPERIENCED HOME WHO WILL SUPPORT HIS TRANSITION FROM FOSTER TO FOREVER HOME

Spot is a 5-month-old Jack Russel described by his foster mum as a perfect little adventure buddy that is full of fun and happy to be out exploring the world. He may not have had the best start but he has absolutely thrived in foster care with a variety of other dogs to play with and learn from cand is now an adventure dog by day and a sofa companion at night.

Spot loves toys, loves running off with your socks and loves getting a cuddle on the sofa or taking up space in bed just to keep you company. He isn’t a very big Jack but as typical of the breed he has bags of personality and so deserves a family of his own to continue to build his confidence and show him a lifetime of fun

Spot was very nervous and hand shy when he first came into foster but now loves people. He can sometimes be a little reserved when meeting new people but with gentle persuasion he is soon everyone’s friend. He is very affectionate and loves sitting next to you on the sofa or curling up at the end of the bed. He is such a loyal little pup who just wants to be where you are.

Spot is a very playful puppy who has never been mouthy however due to him being timid when he first arrived, he would suit a home with slightly older children but would fit into most home environments

Spot does currently live with a cat in his foster home, and although occasionally decides to be brave and chase the cat, he also spends more time running away from the scary cat that definitely isn’t scared of him so with a confident cat that would tell him off he would be fine, with cats likely to run he would get into mischief

Spot is a lovely little companion who follows you around the house to keep you company. He is cage trained and will happily run into his crate for a treat or chew and although he does sometimes bark for a few minutes if left he will settle down in his crate and sleep so would be fine to be left for short periods.

Spot is a puppy so will spend some of the day finding things to steal like socks, or washing pile treasures and loves doing a victory lap around the house when he has something in his mouth. As a terrier he does rag toys when given the opportunity and is a bed de-stuffer so gets blankets put in his soft beds currently to distract him from the stuffing

He loves the outdoors but can be timid on roads or walking in busy areas but loves fields and is very good off lead. He has been on lots of walks with many dogs and is a very inoffensive puppy outside in the big world. He loves following the other dogs and follows their lead for recall and energy levels so could walk with energetic dogs or older calmer dogs

He is very good in the car and likes watching the route through the window

Spot needs an active terrier savvy home who will continue to give him confidence to adventure and explore. He is such a lovely companion and would love a family of his own who are around most of the day. He is still a puppy so will need a home to initially work with him to help him settle into a new environment and be prepared to have patience if he is a little nervous to start or his housetraining initially goes backwards. Spot is a dog that likes to be with you so a home willing to let him sleep upstairs initially if needed and he would love a home with other dogs but for the right home without other dogs would also be considered.

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

NO CATS

ACTIVE HOME WHO LOVE TO GO EXPLORING

Oscar is a gorgeous 8 year old Springer Spaniel described by his foster mum as a joy to foster. Initially overweight he has lost a massive 8 kg and has really enjoyed his exercise. He loves being out and about having a good sniff. He loves the beach and particularly likes it if you throw his ball for him. He is a typical spaniel who loves water and having his nose down sniffing out interesting things.

Veterinary history to be discussed with potential adopters

Oscar can live with sensible older children but doesn’t enjoy being crowded or cuddled too tightly. He is happy with a gentle fuss or preferably older children who will take him out and throw a ball for him.

No Cats as he likes to chase them

Oscar has been a joy to foster. He’s not destructive at all and is fully toilet trained. He loves his food so a close eye needs to be kept on his weight.

Oscar absolutely loves being outside. His favourite place to visit is the beach where he can have lots of off lead time sniffing and playing. He doesn’t go too far from you and checks back to see if you are still there.

Oscar would like an active home where he can be walked for at least an hour a day as well as lots of opportunity to go exploring in woods or beaches. He’s happy to share with another dog but that isn’t essential. He’d like a nice size garden to explore and lots of tasty treats. He’s ok to be left for short periods of time so someone who works part time or from home would be fine.

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN
NOT CAT TESTED
LOVING, DEVOTED SAUSAGE DOG SLAVES WITH KNOWLEDGE OF THE BREED WHO LOVE TO CUDDLE AND GO WALKIES
Tabitha is a 5 year old wire haired dachshund described by her foster mum as a lovely affectionate dog who loves lots of fuss and attention from people with her favourite thing being belly rubs. She is very inquisitive now she’s in a loving environment after not having the best start in her life.
She is happy to accept visitors into the home and is very gentle when taking food or treats from you or new friends. She has become very playful and enjoys running in the garden and playing with her toys.
She is fully house trained but doesn’t ask to go out and just follows the routine of her foster sisters.
She is happy to go in a crate when unattended especially if left with a toy or some nice natural chews
She has been tested with older children of 12 and over and has been very gentle taking treats from them. She isn’t protective over food or toys and will allow you to take them away.
Not cat tested, very interested in my Guinea pigs but is very quick to learn the word NO around them.
She loves going for walks and gets very excited. She walks on a lead but pulls a little and can’t make up her mind where to walk, but with a bit more training she will get there. She’s hasn’t seen much of the outside world and is a little nervous when large vehicles pass. She barks when she sees other dogs out on a walk at first but again learning the word No, she moves on. There is no aggression involved this is just her way of getting in the first words. She is even happy to wait patiently and allow you to have a chat with the owner. She thoroughly enjoys a good run up in the woods on a training lead.
Tabitha needs someone who will give her lots of cuddles and attention. She needs to be an only dog as she is so affectionate. She needs someone who has some time to train her to walk on the lead a little better and give her lots of attention.

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

ACTIVE HOME WITH PATIENT OWNERS WHO CAN HELP HIS TRANSITION TO BE A CONFIDENT RESCUE AMBASSADOR

Hello everyone my names Sparky and I’m and 18 month old westie. I have come into foster through no fault of my own and although I’m a little confused at the moment in my new surroundings its very nice here. I’ve met loads of nice doggo friends who tell me my foster dad is a good person, I’m not quite sure about him yet despite him telling me how I’m a good boy and how handsome I am but I’m sure after a few more treats we will be besties.

I’m really good in the house and never go potty indoors. I love to play with toys with a human or all on my own throwing them around like a happy hound. As I’m a big boy now I sleep in my own bed overnight with my foster siblings and am good and quiet dreaming the night away about my new family that foster dad said he will find for me. My new foster family are teaching me basic commands and I’m getting there but sometimes I forget. I’ve never had so much attention before so I can be a little unsure when I get nervous. I do love it thought when they mix training with toys and treats.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE going walkies and am very good when on the lead. When off lead I can get easily distracted by the good smells that are around and forget when my human is calling me. This big world outside the house is so exciting and I just can’t help myself. I’m good when meeting other dogs and people out walking but can be a little nervous of strange men so just give me time to work them out and I’m fine.

Foster dad asked me what type of forever home I would like and I said id like a home with an active family with older children who will be gentle to me and play football and fetch. A family who will take me on lots of walkies up the mountains, to the beach and to forests to see the allusive squirrel. I would like a brother or sister I can play with and learn from but could also live with a family on my own if someone was around all the time to keep me company. I want someone who will cuddle me in the evenings when we watch TV and tell me that I’m a good boy and am safe and that this is my forever home. I just want to be loved.

Jax D2021-55

CAN BE AN ONLY DOG OR LIVE WITH ANOTHER HIGH ENERGY DOG

NO CHILDREN

COULD LIVE WITH CATS IF INTRODUCTIONS ARE DONE CAREFULLY

HE NEEDS A SUPER ACTIVE HOME OR WITH SOMEONE WHO DOES A DOGGY SPORT AGILITY, FLY BALL, CANICROSS ETC

Jax is a young 2 year 7 month Cocker cross springer described by his foster mum as a boy with a super amount of energy who also has a lot of focus. He is a very smart boy that learns quickly and is the type of dog that would love a job. He would suit someone who wants to do that little bit extra, maybe run, bike, ultra marathons or fell running. He would also be great with any high energy activities gundog training, agility, fly ball, canicross or man trailing. Best of all he loves the water so if all these sports could be done in the water too that would be an extra bonus. However, at the end of the day he still loves a good cuddle up on the sofa with his human after an exciting day.

He is good with people but can be slightly shy at first, a quick chat and a few treats and you will all be firm friends. Sometimes he over does it with his energy levels and likes to take himself off to his crate, which he sees as his safe space for a rest and to be alone. If he had a do not disturb sign, he would put this up and this is your que to let him be till he’s ready for his next adventure.

Jax is unsure around children and due to his high energy levels, we would not recommend he be homed with children

He has lived with cats, but they didn’t like him so were kept apart. There would need to be some work done if others were in the home with him.

Jax is fully house trained, is not destructive or vocal and is happy to sleep downstairs in his crate. He’s an affectionate boy and loves a cuddle but is also happy in his crate on his own when he needs a break. He will need a crate in his forever home as he sees this as his safe space.

He is very high energy and needs to get good regular long walks. He has good recall and adores the water using any opportunity to get in. He loves a toy but not a soft toy or this will have a very short life span, His fastest time so far is 3 seconds so soft toys be warned he will kill you quickly.

Jax needs a young high energy home with no children someone who is going to be his best friend and exploring partner. Someone that has time to teach him an extra activity or two maybe. He’s not so bothered by other dogs so could be an only dog, but given time his foster mum think he would bond if there was another dog in the house.

LOVING PAWRENTS WHO CAN CONTINUE HIS TRAINING AND HELP HIM BECOME A RESCUE AMBASSADOR.

Romeo is a 5 month old West Highland Terrier who is a typical puppy, full of energy loves to play with his foster brother and sisters and loves a super fast zoomies around the house and garden. Every evening he has lovely cuddles with his foster mum and gives the best kisses and cuddles.

He loves his food and is currently being fed 3 times a day at the moment. He sleeps in a dog bed in the kitchen and sleeps all night dreaming of his adventures to come and new life.

Romeo’s vet history will be discussed with potential adopters.

He loves people and gets very excited at meeting everyone

Romeo hasn’t met any small children, and due to his energetic puppy behaviour and the fact he is still teething it would be better if he was homed with older children.

He hasn’t met any cats but as he’s young with careful introductions he should adjust. He did encounter a hedgehog in the garden one night and he did not like it one bit

Romeo is quite good in the home, is very inquisitive and can be a little destructive with toys if left too long on his own. He still uses a puppy pad at night.

He is still nervous when out and about and lead training is on going. He’s fine in the car just goes to sleep. He was fine at the vets and very good when in hospital

Romeo needs an energetic family with plenty of time to play and train him. He needs a doggy companion who also has lots of energy, he loves lots of cuddles and responds very well to praise

Cottontail D2022-47

****PLEASE READ THE FULL WRITE UP BEFORE APPLYING****

NEEDS A RESIDENT DOG OF A SIMILAR SIZE

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

OWNERS WITH OES EXPERIENCE

PATIENT PAWRENTS WHO WILL HELP HER BECOME THE DOG SHE WAS ALWAYS MEANT TO BE

TO BE ADOPTED ON A NEUTERING AND TRAINING AGREEMENT

Cottontail is an 18 week old, Old English Sheepdog who came to us as unsold puppy. She arrived shut down and scared having never known anything about the outside world, everything is new to this sensitive and affectionate girl and she has made remarkable progress in her foster home. However, she still has a long way to go before the world stops being such a scary place and she can become the confident, happy dog she was always meant to be.

Cottontail absolutely loves meeting people, men, women and teens and she is incredibly affectionate with everyone. She can be a little nervous and skittish at first but when you crouch down and speak to her gently then she will come over and smother you with love. Given her background it’s pretty remarkable how much she adores her people.

Cottontail has only met teenagers and above, as she isn’t brave enough to go out walking on a lead yet she only meets visitors to her foster home and she hasn’t had a chance to see any younger children. My guess is Cottontail would adore children but she might be nervous of, and startled by any sudden noise or movement at first, over time this would improve. However, I wouldn’t recommend her being homed with very young children as she is big and clumsy and would easily knock them over. We recommend gentle dog savvy kids 12 and up would be best for her.

Not tested with cats or small furries

She was frightened of everything and reluctant to interact at first but she has made remarkable progress and is beginning to show us the mischievous, bouncy, affectionate and sometimes naughty puppy that was hidden under the scared layers. New experiences and sudden noises still startle her and she may cower, bark or run to her safe space but over time and with patience and kindness from her forever home these incidences should become less and less.

House training has been incredible, she seemed to get the concept in just a couple of days which is remarkable for her age and background, there is still the odd accident and she’s still just a baby so may regress or forget sometimes in a new home with new routines but this clever girl should catch up again in no time.

She currently sleeps through the night on a sofa in her own room, my feeling however is that she wouldn’t mind sleeping with a dog buddy to cuddle up to or her people nearby, she is so loving and affectionate she just loves company. She is obviously still just a pup so hasn’t been left by herself for long, an occasional hour at most, she does fuss and cry at first but does eventually settle. She has just learnt what toys are and is now the proud owner of her own stuffed monkey and a ball which she loves to pounce on in the garden as you kick it for her. She now has a very healthy appetite she loves her treats and is putting on weight slowly. She has also experienced her first bath which she wasn’t fond of but tolerated it well and she has quickly got used to a regular brushing of her very thick coat.

Cottontail has had a lot to learn since arriving in foster and has made amazing progress, however she isn’t ready yet to take that step of going out into the big wide world for walks although we are working on it very slowly by getting her used to a harness, collar and lead around the garden. The area around the foster home is very busy with lots of traffic and people and the feeling is she would do a lot better and probably be braver in a much quieter location-edge of town/rural/semi-rural. She is a dog who would benefit from wide open spaces. Her new people will need to encourage her into exploring the world outside her home by being patient, kind and using reward-based training.

Cottontail is looking for a kind, patient home with new parents who will understand that she hasn’t had the best start in life and still has lots of catching up to do. They will need to be committed to her ongoing training using only positive methods that will benefit this sensitive dog and help her learn to be the best canine citizen she can be. She will need people experienced with Old English Sheepdogs who already have a kind and tolerant resident dog of a similar size who can help teach this young lady about the wonders of being a dog in a home where she is adored. She will need a good size garden to bounce around in with her ball and she would benefit from living in a fairly quiet area with lots of open space for walks and fun.

He has been enjoying playing fetch in the garden and is generally happy playing with soft toys. He is fully house trained and is happy to go in a crate when unattended settling down, and is happy to be left.

Benjamin has met older dog savvy children (12 and over) and has been very gentle taking treats from them. He isn’t protective over food or toys and will allow you to take them away.

It’s not advised that he be homed with cats or any small furry creatures.

Benjamin is a calm dog when in the home and gets excited to see people when they come home.

He loves going for walks and gets very excited walking well on the lead. He does pull a little when out but with a bit more training and time he will learn to walk alongside you.

He is not keen on meeting other dogs but enjoys a good run up the woods (on a training lead).

Benjamin needs someone who will give him lots of cuddles and attention, he would suit being an only dog with someone who has time to train him to walk on the lead a little better and help with his reaction to other dogs.

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

NOT CAT OR SMALL FURRY TESTED

NEEDS AN ACTIVE HOME WILLING TO PUT IN THE TIME AND EFFORT TO HELP HER BECOME THE DOG SHE WAS ALWAYS MEAN TO BE.

Coco is an 8 Month old cocker spaniel cross described by her foster mum as a delightful, energetic, inquisitive pup. She enjoys zooming around the garden with the resident dog and loves to play with her toys. She can be likened to the Duracell Bunny as she gets very excited greeting her foster Mum and when getting ready to go out for a walk. She is an absolute bundle of fun and brings a smile to your face as she is so endearing.

She knows basic commands such as sit and stay which need to be reinforced in a positive manner. Out and about she responds to her name and using a long lead she will come when called and sit for a treat. Coco would benefit from puppy training classes as she loves the stimulation and needs to have her brain kept active.

She enjoys being brushed and made a fuss of. She loves everyone that comes to the home but is still learning how to greet people nicely. With her long legs she can jump quite high so this needs to be discouraged.

She is not cat or small furry tested

She can be homed with dog savvy children as due to a lack of previous training and shark puppy teeth it would be unwise for her to be placed in a home with young children.

Coco is toilet trained and will sit at the door if she needs to go out. She has been left for short periods and is crated which she dislikes but it’s for her own safety and to give the resident dog a break as he sometimes finds her ott! She has a large assortment of toys which she loves to play with but gets quite anxious when foster Mum leaves the room or goes out which is being worked on.

She isn’t particularly food orientated but enjoys treats and responds well to praise. She currently sleeps upstairs with her foster Mum but in her own bed.

Coco loves to go for a walk and is very inquisitive about the outside world. She is quite nervous of sudden noises and hesitant meeting new people and other dogs but everyone that meets her remarks how stunning she is and consequently she is learning to be gently stroked. After her initial enthusiasm Coco walks quite nicely on a lead and harness. She has only travelled to the vets in the car and used a car harness successfully. At present she is being walked twice daily – once with resident dog and once on her own to help her build confidence.

Coco could be an only dog in an active home with people prepared to put in time and consistency with her training or live with another active dog. Due to her energy, acrobatic skills and her tendency to puppy nip she is best placed in a home with older children. She has only been left for short periods.

ADVENTUROUS PAWRENTS WHO WILL SPEND TIME SUPPORTING HER AS SHE TRANSITIONS TO A RESCUE AMBASSADOR

Jemima is a 3 year old miniature Schnauzer described by her foster mum as a beautiful, happy little girl who is now living the life, that she always should have. She loves her daily walks with her two Schnauzer companions and becomes her most confident around other dogs. It is amazing to see how happy she has become with her tail wagging so much, sniffing everything in sight.

She has a gentle and kind temperament and is fully house trained. She is the perfect companion. She needed to be shaved when she came into foster but her eyebrows have already started to grow back and once her trade mark beard regrows she will be the picture perfect Schnauzer.

You can see that Jemi is still wary of people when she first meets them, however you can also see she is curious and wants them to gently stroke her. Once you have gained her trust it will be endless belly rubs.

Jemi has been in the company of children of all ages and is very happy. I would not recommend a family home with young children, due to the fact that she would be nervous of excited behaviour and noises.

We have not met any small animals or cats as yet.

Jemi is quiet and gentle around the home and has fitted into family life so well. She does not leave foster mums’ side when she is cooking, patiently waiting for her share, especially roast chicken.

Her confidence has grown outside of the house and she readily awaits her daily walks. She is confident in a number of surroundings from roads, parks and the countryside.

Jemi would complement any household but foster mum would advise older dog savvy children as she is still learning the ways of a loving home. She has shown how adaptable she is and is a pleasure to have in the family.

OWNERS WITH KNOWLEDGE OF THESE TWO STRONG BREEDS

Buster is a 10 month old Dachshund cross terrier described by his foster mum as a bundle of energy who is into everything and full of mischief. His little sausage side comes out when he initially meets people and he likes to tell them all about himself and how special he is in the only way he knows how which is by barking. Once he has told you all about himself he soon settles and likes to smother you with sausage snogs. He is very affectionate.

Buster is very good with other dogs who will play with him and keep him out of mischief. He may get on an older dogs nerves as his terrier side is very tenacious, determined and courageous. His house training and general training is a work in progress. He loves his food and is motivated by treats which always helps with positive training.

He currently sleeps in a crate at night and settles quickly dreaming the night away thinking of hunting and squirrels until breakfast. Buster has lovely clean teeth and is very gentle when taking food or treats from you.

Buster is very playful and loves all the attention he can get. He also likes to play with toys but as yet hasn’t worked out what fetch is. Buster responds well to his name and most of the time will sit when told to.

Buster is good on walks and currently gets 3 walks a day to help with his high energy levels. He is good to travel in the car but needs to be secured with a harness and doggy seat belt or he might offer to help drive and he’s too young to have a licence.

Buster is not cat or small furry tested

Buster is a gorgeous little dog and will make a lovely pet in a super active household. He needs owners who want an adventure buddy and is willing to put in the time to train him and help him become the dog he was always meant to be. He does currently jump up to say hello but once he is trained, he will be fine. He is still a puppy and it is to be expected.

Dutty Dai D2022-41

****PLEASE READ THE FULL WRITE UP BEFORE APPLYING****

NEEDS A RESIDENT DOG OF A SIMILAR SIZE

NOT CAT TESTED

NO CHILDREN

PATIENT OWNERS WHO WILL HELP HIM ADJUST TO A WHOLE NEW WORLD.

Well its completely true of the saying that “all good things come in small packages” and Dutty Dai certainly ticks that box. He is his foster mums shadow and loves to be the centre of attention. If foster mum is sat on the sofa having a cup of tea then Dai wants to be there with her sat as close as possible and if there are biscuits with the tea then he likes them dipped in your tea but not too soggy pls.

Dai is a super happy boy when he gets to know you and loves to lick your hand or give you a cheeky peck on the face. He likes an afternoon nap on the sofa close to foster mum while she catches up on her soaps. He also sleeps with foster mum on her bed snuggled up in a blanket all night.

Dai loves his food but dur to his poor start in life he had to have a lot of teeth removed and only has 4 teeth left but this does not stop him from enjoying every morsel. Due to his size and love of food this will need to be watched.

Dai being the handsome young man that he is prefers women over men and bonds to the ladies quickly he just needs to work out if men live up to his standards of being gentlemen and will give him time to work it all out.

Dai has not been cat or small furry tested.

Dai’s toilet training is a work in progress and he will need to be guided out to toilet often until he is in a routine. Positive praise and treats are also a winner. Dai doesn’t yet play with toys but is learning to enjoy home comforts rather than a draughty shed.

Dai has not been out on walks yet and lead training will need to continue in the secure garden with his new fur brother or sister so he gains confidence from his owner and fur sibling.

Dai living in a loving home is something new to him and his new pawrents will need to be patient and understanding. He has come a long way in his foster home and is now ready to take those new small steps and is dreaming of the big adventures to come. He needs a quiet home where his pawrents can invest time in him and help him become the little man he was always meant to be. He is a nervous boy who is currently unsure of the world and needs time to adjust.

RESIDENT DOG

GOOD WITH CATS

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

LOVING PAWRENTS WHO WILL HELP JILL BE THE DOG SHE WAS ALWAYS MEANT TO BE

Jill is a 7 year old Westie described by her foster mum as a super little dog who is very pretty with a funny little character. She adores her humans and loves attention. She gets especially excited when her humans come home by jumping around and trying to give little kisses. She’s a very affectionate little dog with lots of love to give and just adores company.

Jill loves her food and does a little happy dance while she waits. She needs to be fed using a slow feeder and away from other dogs as she’s a little greedy.

Jill currently enjoys an afternoon nanna nap where she dreams of chasing squirrels and her forever home. Jill likes to rearrange any blankets or fleece on the sofa and if not careful will drink your coffee when you are not looking.

Medical history to be discussed by potential adopters

Jill absolutely loves people and can be quite demanding of their attention, literally walking over other dogs to be first in line for attention. She’s not aggressive in any way but will need to be firmly told No and be made to wait with the other dogs and not expect to be always first in line.

Jill has been in the company of children who were near but didn’t fuss her. She was quite laid back and not fazed by them.
I think children used to having dogs around and know to give them space when needed will be okay

Jill lives with a cat in her foster home and although interested in watching him she hasn’t attempted to chase him. Jill hasn’t met any other small animals.

Jill is very clean around the house and will use the garden to toilet. She loves to doze on the sofa with the other dogs or next to her human watching tv. Jill currently sleeps on her foster mums bed.

Jill hasn’t been out and about yet. She has travelled in a car to the vets and quite happily settles in the car with her doggy friends secured by a doggy seat belt. She’s a little nervous at the vets and can shake a little and look very shut down but this is getting better as she gets used to the big world outside.

Jill needs a quiet home where people are around most of the day. Jill being the princess she is she’d expect to sleep on your bed and be allowed on the sofa as she’s not a floor type of girl. She needs a resident dog or two who would keep her company and show her the outside world is a fun place to explore.

Yara D2022-35

****PLEASE READ THE FULL WRITE UP BEFORE APPLYING****

NEEDS A CALM RESIDENT DOG FOR CONFIDENCE

NOT CAT TESTED

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

OWNERS HOME MOST OF THE TIME AND CAN HELP TURN THIS SPECIAL GIRLS LIFE AROUND

Yara is a 6 year old Pomeranian described by her foster mum as a nervous girl who needs time and patience to get to know you. Her life has changed dramatically and it will take her a while to settle. When she first arrived in foster she was super nervous but day by day she comes out of her shell and it’s a joy to see her slowly changing. Once she knows you she will come to you for attention and a cuddle especially if you have treats.

Medical history will be discussed with potential adopters

Yara was underweight when she first arrived in foster but luckily with good food and regular meals, she has gained her weight and is clearly feeling much better. In fact, she’s now feeling so well that she tries to steal everyone else’s food so this will need to be watched in her forever home. We are confident it will calm down once she knows that food is regular and her new pawrents love her.

she loves treats

Yara is super clever and is very treat orientated so basic training is coming along slowly. There are good and bad days just like training any dog but she is a happy girl and loves positive praise and reassurance.

Yara loves people when she knows they are not going to hurt her so we would recommend that she be homed with older dog savvy children who can give her the space when she needs it.

Yara’s house training is a work in progress so regular trips to a secure garden for toilet breaks is a must. Followed by positive reassurance and a nice treat. Were confident that once she is in a routine with pawrents who are focused on her future she will come on in leaps and bounds

Yara loves sleeping on any soft area including her foster mum’s crochet. Currently Yara sleeps on foster mums bed. She will run upstairs to the bedroom but at the moment she doesn’t like coming down stairs and gets worried if you carry her so just take your time

Yara doesn’t like being alone so will need pawrents who are around most of the time. She has never felt love before and now that she knows people are rooting for her, she gets worried when they leave her. Her separation anxiety can be worked on once she has settled and gained some confidence.

There has been no lead training as she has not been confident enough. This can also be tackled once she has settled and can start in a secure back garden with just wearing a harness and lead. She travels well in a crate in the car and was a good girl at the groomers and when she has been to the vet.

Yara needs patient pawrents who are home most of the time and will dedicate themselves to her and her future. She needs a family who can turn this special girl from a worrier princess into a warrior princess. She needs to be homed with a calm resident dog who can show her the ropes and give her confidence. To be part of this girls life and watch her change and blossom will be so rewarding.

NEEDS A CONFIDENT RESIDENT DOG

GOOD WITH CATS

GOOD WITH OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

NEEDS PATIENT PAWRENTS WHO WILL ENCOURAGE BUT NOT PANDER TO HER INSECURITIES.

THIS IS TINSELS TIME TO SHINE AND SHE WILL DO THAT WITH THE RIGHT OWNER

Tinsel is a 2 year old poodle cross American Cocker described by her foster mum as a very loving princess once she knows you. Tinsel did not have a great start in life and it will take her time to adjust to the outside world and household noises. She would not be suited to a noisy or busy household.

Tinsel loves the two resident dogs in the home and looks to them for security and encouragement. She also enjoys cuddling up to them in a bed or on the sofa. She currently sleeps with her foster siblings on mums bed at night and sleeps all night.

Tinsel has started playing with the other dogs and is becoming curious around toys. Its clear to see that before long and with the right family she will start decompressing and leaving her worries behind. To see her coming out of her shell would melt anyones heart.

Tinsel loves her food and will take treats from you once she trusts you and knows you mean her no harm.

Tinsel is a little nervous when she first meets new people in the home but soon comes given a little time for her to work things out and she will be back for more attention especially when she known you give ear and belly rubs.

Tinsel will need a well-fitted dog harness and collar with two leads when out on her walks as she can get nervous of new noises and anxious when there are a lot of humans around. This is not the time to rush her to meet people she needs to feel safe with her fur siblings and owner and be allowed to gain confidence in her own time. Tinsel needs understanding pawrents who will encourage but not pander to her and she will soon find her paws.

Tinsel is great with gentle older children who understands that she sometimes needs a little time and space to work things out for herself.

Tinsel is great with the resident cat but has not been small furry tested

Tinsel travels very well in the car as long as she is secured with a harness and doggy seat belt, she does not like a crate.

Tinsel needs owners who are home for much of the day. A confident resident dog and a family who will encourage but not pander to her insecurities. Now is Tinsels time to shine and leave her old life behind. Being part of the new chapter in her life will be very fulfilling. We can almost guarantee you will cry when you see her playing with toys and being truly happy.

RESIDENT DOG

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

NOT CAT OR SMALL FURRY TESTED

LOVING PAWRENTS THAT WILL HELP HER ADJUST TO THE BIG WIDE WORLD AND BECOME THE PRINCESS SHE WAS ALWAYS MEANT TO BE

Fflur is a 7 year old Pomeranian described by her foster mum as loving but currently unsure of the surroundings she now finds herself in. She is new to living in a loving home but is adjusting well to all the creature comforts a warm comfy bed, regular meals and settee can bring.

Fflur is very clever and learns quickly. She loves her food and will wait patiently for foster mum to deliver the goodies. She is slowly learning to play and is coming out of her shell more and more each day.

Housetraining is a work in progress but if encouraged to visit the garden and given positive praise when she does well it will all click together soon. She is also adjusting to household noises and will occasionally show concern but all this is new and she just needs time. She loves being told how good she is and craves positive praise.

Fflur can be timid with men and needs them to allow her to make the first approach. New people in general can be quite scary so she must be allowed her own space until she decides that you won’t hurt her and only wants to be friends. However, when she realises you are friendly she shows so much love that she can brighten any room. She hasn’t had the best start in life but in the right home with the right family she will thrive and become the princess she was always meant to be.

Lead training is a work in progress and she is currently wearing a harness and lead in the garden gaining the confidence that it is there during good times and is not there to hurt her. She will need to live with another confident dog and once they are friends, she will gain so much confidence from them. Everyone needs a friend and the world is less scary when we have one.

Fflur has not been around many children so we would suggest older dog savvy children who will give her time to decompress and adjust

She is also not cat or small furry tested

Fflur travels well in a crate and settles down to sleep which is handy as she is going to need regular trips to the groomers and gentle grooming at home to maintain the beautiful coat that the groomer in our team has worked hard to improve since she came to us.

Fflur would like a home with another resident dog who can give her confidence and help her come out of her shell. She wants to live with someone who has the time to spend with her and praise and cuddle her when she has been good. All she wants is someone who will love her unconditionally. She needs someone that is home a lot of the time to help her settle and grow. Basically she now wants to a be a lady of leisure with servants who will wait on her paws and fluff.

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

LOVING RETIRMENT HOME WHO WILL CHERRISH HIM FOR THE REST OF HIS DAYS.

Marley is a 13 year old typical Jack Russel male who knows what he likes which is snuggling next to his human on the sofa, going for daily walks and dreaming of when he used to go squirrel hunting.

Marley is as good as they come and is described by his foster mum as the Pawfect gentleman.

His medical condition will be discussed with potential adopters and full support given. His new Pawrents must be able to take him to one of the Maesglas veterinary centres if any treatment is needed.

Marley is fully house trained, loves his food and his bed and adores lots of cuddles. He doesn’t like to be over handled by young people as his days of ruff and tumble have passed him by but he likes to be close and will occasionally have a play if he is in the mood. After all he has nothing to prove now as he is just a special little man.

He likes to have a snooze in the garden close to foster mum if she is out there with the other dogs or pottering. After all the sun does make everyone feel a lot better.

He is a good lad on the lead enjoying a little stroll and sniff but is strong when he is first walked as he is excited to go and explore. He enjoys going to the coffee shop for a puppachino or just to admire the lady dogs passing by. Marley would be described as very peter pan like as h has just never grown up. Yes his body may be occasionally tired and he may need an afternoon nanna nap (don’t we all) but he is as sharp as a tack so don’t be put off by his age.

Marley needs a home with owners who will adore him. Who will take him for a daily leg stretch and sniff and generally just be his best friend as that’s all he wants is to be your best friend.

NEEDS A RESIDENT DOG FOR CONFIDENCE

OLDER DOG SAVYY CHILDREN

CAN LIVE WITH CATS WITH GENTLE INTRODUCTIONS

PATIENT OWNERS WHO WILL GIVE HIM THE TIME TO DECOMPRESS AND BUILD CONFIDENCE

PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE WITH NERVOUS DOGS WOULD BE A BONUS

Twmos is an 11 month old Bichon Frise described by his foster mum as a scared little boy who seems to have had no socialising at all. He would initially run and scream if a dog so much as looked at him but he is now confident enough to follow them around and loves nothing more than exploring the garden.

Twmos is looking for a special home who understands that he is a work in progress and will need you to give him as much time as he needs to become the pet he should always have been.

He still doesn’t like being touched but is happy to come up and sniff you if you are sitting still so we are hopeful that as his confidence grows, he will come to enjoy a fuss. He is not currently a dog you can pick up and if he needs to go anywhere then he will need to go in a crate and be transported safely that way.

Twmos is extremely nervous of people until he trusts you. He is particularly worried by hands but once he knows you aren’t going to hurt him, he will come and sniff you and this will be how his confidence slowly grows.

He would like a home with no children or visiting young children but would be okay with older teenagers who understand not to rush him.

Twmos isn’t cat tested but he could live with a cat as long as it didn’t bother him and careful introductions were made.

He is a nervous boy in the house enjoying the sanctuary of his crate and will return to it if he is startled. He loves his food and is nearly there with toilet training if he has access to outdoors.

Twmos has not yet been out into the big wide world as he is far too scared and would run. He needs time at home in a large secure garden where he can safely sniff and explore. He will need to feel confident at home before any lead work is started in the garden. This will need to be done slowly and at his own pace.

Twmos would like a quiet home which is not too busy. He needs at least one other dog and kind, patient owners who will not rush him and just let him be. He has come a long way in his foster home and is now ready to continue this progress in his forever home. Previous experience with puppy farm or very nervous dogs would be an advantage.

FAMILY THAT LIKES TO GO WALKIES, HAVE MINI ADVENTURES AND BE SOCIABLE

Santa is a happy, handsome 7 year old Bichon Frise. He’s had new lenses implanted into his eyes, following cataract surgery and now there’s no stopping him. He has a lovely nature and really enjoys being stroked, cuddled, brushed and groomed. Any fuss is welcome, he really is a cuddle monster.

He gets very attached to his person and can get very anxious when he’s left, so his new owner must be around for most of the time.

He travels really well in the car and will settle down immediately on the back seat, so he’s a perfect travelling companion.

He walks really well on a harness and lead and is very sociable with passing dogs, greeting them with a waggy tail. He’s energetic and enjoys long walks, sniffing every blade of grass for good measure!

Santa is confident around everyone in the house, including a three year old grandson. In fact he seems to love dog savvy children in general.

Santa does not like cats and cannot be rehomed with any

Santa is completely toilet trained and will let you know when he needs to go outside

He sleeps peacefully all through the night, on foster mums bed and doesn’t snore.

Santa is happy to share his home with other dogs, but he would be equally happy as an only dog so he could receive all his parents love and attention.

He’s had a lot of his teeth removed, so needs a soft diet, but he LOVES food and will eat anything you give him, he’s especially fond of bananas. He will dance upright on his back legs and beg for food whenever he can, he’s very cute!

Santa needs drops in his eyes every day to help keep his new lenses lubricated, but he’s happy to have it done, as it means he’s having more attention.

Santa would like a home with or without another dog where he can get lots of attention. He loves to go walkies and be sociable and now that he can see properly, he would like to go on lots of adventures.

TO BE ADOPTED ON A NEUTERING AND TRAINING AGREEMENT

Yanto is a 5 Month old Schnauzer described by his foster mum as a very loving and gorgeous boy who is quite nervous but when he gets used to you he will be your loyal companion. He likes to snuggle next to you on the sofa and being made a fuss of. He would literally let you stroke him all day. He often puts his paws on you to be smoothed. He’s 99% house trained and typical of the breed he is quick to learn. He is nervous around strangers but soon comes around when he’s given time and space. He is currently scared of loud noises.

He currently has a ear infections in both ears which is being treated with drops from the vet. Otherwise, he’s a happy healthy pup.

Yanto is nervous of strangers but is now comfortable around his foster family. He’s making huge progress on a daily basis. He’s just going to need some patience with socialising and confidence building.

He’s not been tested with really small children but is completely comfortable with fosters 11 year old child. Children need to be dog savvy and realise that he needs time and space and no pressure to be a best friend straight away.

He hasn’t been tested with cats but is young enough to adjust with careful introductions

He’s becoming very relaxed at home. He is aware of going outside for toileting. He doesn’t ask to go out at the moment but will go when prompted. He likes to be with foster Mum in the house and will follow her around. He currently sleeps in the kitchen overnight and loves his bed. He doesn’t like going in a crate. He will sometimes cry/howl but only for a few minutes and then settles. He has only been left for about an hour in the day but copes well. This can be extended more over time when he gets used to his surroundings. He is happy with the company of other dogs in the house. He has started playing with toys especially anything soft the he can cuddle up to.

At the moment he doesn’t like walking on the lead but this is work in progress. He will need lots of encouragement with this and will need patience with walks in a quiet area. He will benefit from going to puppy socialisation classes. He was very well behaved at the vets.

Yanto would be happy in a home with another similar size dog. He could be an only dog with owners who are prepared to spend lots of time with him. He would suit a home with older children who will understand that he will be very nervous in the beginning and he wouldn’t be comfortable in a busy noisy home. He needs someone who is home most of the time to help him overcome his nervousness. He also needs someone who’s prepared to spend time helping him get used to everyday life. In return he will be a very loving companion.

Acorn is a 6 month old Cavalier cross bichon who came into rescue with a hole in her heart which has now been fixed by a specialist vet. The operation went well and her recovery has been great. She is perfectly happy and healed. In fact, if we hadn’t told you, you wouldn’t know there was anything wrong with her at all. She is full of life and puppy energy and is one very happy little pup.

Ongoing she will have no health issues related to her PFA operation. She is fit and healthy in every other way. She will need one more check up at the specialist in Marlow Bucks, in May. She will need to have this last check up before given the all clear for her spaying. (Her first season is likely soon)

She is shy when you first meet her but soon learns to trust and is very loving enjoying nothing more than a good cuddle and lots of attention. She will grow into a very sweet mannered little lady as she is absolutely full of love.

She has not been out to be tested with other dogs but is great with foster mums herd and would be fine with dog savvy children.

She is not cat tested, but should adapt with the right introductions

She is very good in the home not vocal or destructive and happily sleeps down stairs with other dogs. She loves her chew toys and is a massive chewer, but only for her toys. She is 90 % there with toilet training.

Acorn would like to go to a home where she has other dogs for company. She does not suffer separation anxiety, but definitely loves the company of her human around. A young active family would be good. But she also loves to cuddle up on the sofa.

STILL A LITTLE NERVOUS BUT IMPOVING EVERY DAY

NEEDS A PATIENT HOME WHERE OWNERS WILL LET HIM ADJUST

This is Mel Blanc is a more mature male and is inexplicably named after the voice artist behind Bugs bunny by the vet nurses at Brackla, but we like to call him MelMel at his foster home. He was found outside by a good soul, and although we don’t know his history it’s likely he spent several years as a feral cat. As a result, he is still a little on the shy side, but he is coming along and getting to enjoy the indoor life. He went from being absolutely petrified and hiding in a corner to now starting to relax and joining us on the sofa in the evening when we are sufficiently quiet for his liking. I believe with more time and patience he will relax even more. He is not at all aggressive and can be handled when needed, but will do better with a patient person who lets him get used to things at his own pace. When stroked he eventually relaxes and purrs his little heart out. Age uncertain although he is probably a mature gentleman. Not tested with other cats but would probably not be a dominant character. Not tested with dogs but they are probably too much for this gentle character. All in all he is very sweet and endearing for the right person.

****PLEASE READ THE FULL WRITE UP BEFORE APPLYING****

WILL BE ADOPTED ON A NEUTERING AND TRAINING AGREEMENT

NEEDS ANOTHER SMALL BREED DOG IN THE HOME

DACHSHUND EXPERIENCE HOME DESIRED

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

CAN LIVE WITH A CAT

LOVING PAWRENTS WHO CAN INTRODUCE HIM TO THE BIG WIDE WORLD

Heathcliff is a 15 week old gorgeous little Miniature dachshund, full of love and puppy mischievousness! He has the sweetest nature, loves to snuggle on his fosterer’s laps, gives kisses to his humans and dog friends and likes nothing better than burying his head into your neck for a nap.

He is full of energy, enjoys his zoomies around the garden and sniffing everything he can, then climbs into the toy box for a snooze with the toys! He will need his forever home to give him time as he has been through a lot in his short life.

Heathcliff is initially very timid around people he doesn’t know, but when spoken to gently and given time and space, will come close, sit on your lap and enjoys being stroked. He loves to be close to his familiar people, will ask to be picked up, give kisses and snuggle in for cuddles. He will trot around, following his fosterers, tail wagging, often bringing a little toy with him!

Heathcliff hasn’t met children while in foster and due to his size and start in life, his fosterer feels he would be better homed with older dog savvy children who will understand his needs.

He is currently in foster with a cat and loves to lie next to him and go to sleep. He has not been small furry tested.

Heathcliff is a typical playful, inquisitive puppy, exploring everything! Providing a chew toy or an antler distracts him from chewing things he shouldn’t, and a ramp would be needed to help him access the settee and prevents damage to his developing joints.

Toilet training is progressing well, he is happy to toilet outside, and sleeps through the night, in fosterer’s bedroom, with no accidents.

Heathcliff travels well in the car, and will fall asleep in his dog car seat. He is learning to walk on a lead, wearing a harness. He has experienced short visits to cafes, happily sitting on fosterer’s lap looking around. He hasn’t visited busy urban areas yet.

Heathcliff will thrive in a home where someone is home to provide all the love and care he needs. He needs someone who will carefully introduce him into the big, wide world, understanding the needs of this small breed of dog. He needs the guidance and companionship of a gentle resident dog. A safe, fully enclosed and easily accessible garden is essential.

Sabrina ADOPTED

Sabrina D2021-214

****PLEASE READ THE FULL WRITE UP BEFORE APPLYING****

CAN BE HOMED AS AN ONLY DOG OR LIVE WITH ANOTHER SMALL DOG WHO DOESN’T MIND SHARING THEIR HUMAN

SABRINA HAS HAD SURGERY TO CORRECT AN ISSUE WITH HER BACK LEG

CANNOT BE HOMED WITH YOUNG CHILDREN

COULD BE HOMED WITH A CAT AFTER GENTLE INTRODUCTIONS

ADORING PAWRENTS WHO WILL CHERISH HER AS A LITTLE DOG AND NOT A TOY.

Sabrina is a teeny tiny 4 year old Chihuahua weighing just over 2kg. Although she is small she be but mighty and she loves people and is a true lapdog wanting to be cuddled as much as possible. It helps to approach her carefully as she is so very tiny she can become nervous. However quite often if you wait, she will just run over and beg to be picked up and cuddled.

Medical history will be discussed with potential adopters

She is fine with kind gentle teenagers but is uncomfortable around small children. She will not be homed where there are small children or where they visit regularly. If there are only rare visits this could be managed.

She is intrigued by the rabbit in her foster home, probably because he’s the same size, but nothing concerning. My guess is she would be ok with a dog savvy cat with gentle introductions.

Sabrina is definitely not a morning person, apart from a quick visit outside around 8.30 for the toilet her royal highness doesn’t usually rise from her bed until about midday! She then gets fed around 12.30 (no point in giving her food in the morning as she won’t eat it until she has her full complement of beauty sleep!). She then gets fed again at around 6.30 in the evening. She has a very healthy appetite and also loves her treats but everything in moderation not to overfeed.

She is housetrained but doesn’t tend to ask to go so needs to be taken out regularly. She has access to and uses a puppy pad as typically of her breed she intensely dislikes cold and/or wet weather so she is more likely to use the pad then. She has never had an accident in the house.

She sleeps all night downstairs burrowed under her blankets in a large closed crate in the living room with the resident dog in the same room, there is a puppy pad in the crate next to her bed. It is very important she has a crate in her new home, especially at first, as this is her sanctuary and place of safety and she will quite often put herself to bed at night-time.

Although sleeping is her favourite hobby, she does enjoy a good chew and loves short play sessions with some toys and her human slaves. She can be left for short periods but if you snuck out while she was asleep in the morning and got back before she woke up it’s unlikely, she’d ever know you were gone! At other times of the day, she has been left for an hour or so in her crate with a chew or licki mat.

Sabrina likes short walks and has been fine on the lead. She does however go out with her foster sister and gets carried in a bag if it’s a long walk which she loves, she takes a lot of interest in her surroundings. She adores meeting kind and gentle people who approach her with care as she is so tiny she does attract attention. She also, not surprisingly, attracts a lot of attention from children and care must be taken that they don’t approach suddenly as she can be scared of them. She will bark at other dogs when first meeting them, this is obviously very chihuahua like behaviour and we are working on it but nearly all dogs are much bigger than her so there is some nervousness on her part.

Sabrina is looking for a home with loving gentle parents who will be cautious of her very tiny size but still treat her as a dog and not a baby or toy. People with experience of small dogs especially chihuahuas would be nice but not absolutely essential if they are willing to become knowledgeable about the breed. It is important that they are kind, gentle and around most of the day or happy to take her out with them. She can definitely be homed as an only dog as her family are the most important thing in her life and she loves nothing better than being curled up on your lap while you read or watch tv etc. She could be homed with another dog of similar size as long as that dog is laidback and doesn’t mind sharing human attention and toys because she will try and hog both. She doesn’t need a large garden or outdoor space. Can be homed with gentle teenagers but cannot be homed with small children or where small children visit regularly.

Nala ADOPTED

274024191_2153957871428391_3644309927734111099_n

Nala D2022-17

****PLEASE READ THE FULL WRITE UP BEFORE APPLYING****

COULD LIVE WITH A CALM MALE DOG

NO CATS

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

ACTIVE, EXPERIENCED HOME WHO WILL NOT PUT ANY PRESSURE ON HER AND ALLOW HER TO COME TO YOU.

Nala is a 5 year old Chinese Crested described by her foster mum as an extremely affectionate, chatty girlie who enjoys her walks, loves her soft toys, and dances on her back legs when she’s excited! She’s as bright as a button, and would enjoy activities where she can use her mind. Potential adopters need to respect her breeding, and be willing to give her the space and time to unwrap the last few months and decompress.

Nala would benefit from a pragmatic and experienced owner that can speak dog and understand what she is trying to say. She grumbles and groans, and her play noises can sound confusing but if you are fluent in dog, there is little to be concerned with. Nala loves everyone, but can get overwhelmed so her new owner will need to be willing to advocate for her.

Despite looking like a teddy bear, Nala is not a family dog. Not a dog for young children, but calmer, dog respectful teens may be granted attention.

Nala thinks cats are stupid and would rather not have to share a home with them. Same goes for any other small furries that might steal her limelight.

She is clean, well-mannered and sleeps in her own bed. Nala is crate trained but previous over use of the crate means she’s not overly happy at being shut in. However, she will use it as her safe space.

Nala loves her walks. She really loves running, jumping, rolling and more running. A perfect lady on the lead, Nala likes a good gawp at other dogs but has never shown any malice.

Nala needs a calm home with someone around most of the day, although she has been left alone for short periods without any problems. Potentially Nala could be trained to be left longer, but she’d much rather be with you, preferably out on a long walk. Nala could live with a calm male dog who will play with her but not encourage her to be a drama queen and walk away if she has a tantrum.

Megan D2022-09

CALM RESIDENT DOG A MUST

NOT CAT TESTED

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

PATIENT OWNERS AROUND MOST OF THE TIME WHO WILL GIVE MEGAN TIME TO BLOSSOM

Megan is 5-7 year old Cocker Spaniel described by her foster mum as a heart breaker. When she looks at you with her Spaniel eyes, you just melt. She likes to follow you around the house and stays close behind you wherever you go. In fact, foster mum thinks that she is quite a nosey parker and likes to see what everyone is up to. She loves a gentle fuss but is fearful of sudden movements. She feels safe on her bed where she enjoys being made a fuss of.

Megan sometimes likes to collect odd bits of paper or socks that are left lying about but be wary not to leave anything of importance at her level or they may vanish.

Megan eats well twice daily getting very excited around meal times. She loves a wander in the garden chasing birds and having a good sniff around but can be quite stubborn at times about going out and needs a bit of persuasion. She has enjoyed regular baths and grooming particularly as her skin was very dry on arrival. She is amenable to her ears being cleaned as long as a sausage treat is available.

Vet history will be discussed with potential adopters.

Megan allows visitors to cuddle her when she’s in her safe place but she doesn’t willingly greet strangers. She wags her tail profusely when her foster family appears and gets very excited. Meg shows a little jealousy and hurt if the resident dog is being patted and not her but hasn’t yet got the courage to willingly seek close contact.

Not cat or small furry tested

Megan is 75% house trained and understands the garden is for toileting but needs encouragement to go outside. She doesn’t ask to go out so it’s a case of anticipating her need and putting her out often.

She has been left with the resident dog for a few hours and on her own for short periods.

Megan sleeps upstairs on her own bed and really looks forward to bed time. She hasn’t had any toilet issues during the night and has recently learnt to climb up stairs but not down!

Lead training is ongoing. She will follow closely behind off lead but hasn’t yet mastered the pleasure of a lead led walk. She travels in the back seat of the car attached to a car harness but at the moment is lifted in and out.

Megan has come a long way in a short space of time and will need a home where her new owners will give her time and patience to continue to grow in confidence. They will need to be home the majority of time as she does suffer from separation anxiety. A resident dog is necessary to help Megan become braver and more self-assured but at the same time respectful of her own space. A passive older dog would be ideal.

NEEDS TO BE AN ONLY DOG

A FEMALE RESIDENT DOG WOULD BE CONSIDERED IF THE OWNERS ARE EXPEDRIENCED

NO CATS

OLDER DOG SAVVY CHILDREN

FLAY FACE EXPERIENCE

OWNERS WITH TIME TO RE TRAIN HIM IN A POSITIVE MANNER

Smithy is a 3 year old French bulldog who like all good secret agents is highly strung, super alert and has a licence to thrill. He has done his time in the service for MY Bone and now needs re training to learn how to be a pet. He likes his water shaken and not stirred and certainly has an eye for the ladies.

Currently transitioning to normal life Smithy is on high alert when out and about and can react with his super spy training to situations that really doesn’t require him to get over excited. After assessing the thread and knowing all his exit points Smithy does calm down and can mix well with others. However, as he has been given licence to do anything he wants in the past Smithy now needs a family who can teach him boundaries in a positive manner. Ideally, he needs a family with flat face experience who can re-train our superhero into just a hero.

Smithy in the home is completely house trained. He loves his food and is not at all destructive. He will play with toys but needs to be supervised or his secret agent training kicks in and he will remove that squeaker before you know it. He probably also knows where to hide the body

Having previously been undercover with cats specifically a feline called Pussy Galore he has decided that he does not like them and is now seeking a home without.

Smithy adores people and thoroughly enjoys a massage and cuddle. He prefers older children that he can play with if he chooses but who won’t get him over excited and activate his licence to kill.

Smithy due to his secret agent training and lack of boundaries would be best suited as an only dog. A home with a resident female dog could be considered if the owners are experienced

Smithy needs a home with owners who have flat face experience, can retrain him out of action hero mode into a calm dog with great social skills. He knows basic commands but can go off mission if not watched carefully. Owners who are home most of the time to help with his re training.
