Cats: No.
Dogs: Yes, he could live with another similar sized dog. He will need further socialising around smaller breeds of dogs.
Children: 8 years and over.
Ideal home: Syd is a retired racer, he hasn’t lived in a home before so will need to learn about living in a home environment. He will need access to a garden to have zoomies in, before lying on the sofa the rest of the day.
Mabel
DOB: February 2017
Sex: Females
Breed: Labrador
Size: Large
Energy level: Medium – high
About me: Mabel is a beautiful chocolate Labrador who loves being around people and will always bring you her favourite toy! She has lots of energy and enjoys going out for her walks.
Cats: No, she will chase.
Dogs: Yes, she will need to be rehomed with an existing dog after several meets here at the shelter. She came in with Poppie so could also be rehomed with her.
Children: 12 years and over. She adores people but can be excitable and could knock younger children over.
Ideal home: Mabel is looking for a home that can help her build up her fitness as she came to us slightly overweight.
Poppie
DOB: February 2017
Sex: Females
Breed: Labrador
Size: Large
Energy level: Medium – high
About me: Poppie is a friendly and loveable lab! She has lots of energy and enjoys being around people and going for walks. She is a typical lab who likes her food however she is currently on a diet as she came in to us overweight.
Cats: No, she will chase.
Dogs: Poppie could be an only dog, or could be rehomed with an existing dog after several meets here at the shelter. She came in with Mabel so could be rehomed with her too.
Children: 12 years and over. She adores people but can be excitable and could knock younger children over.
Ideal home: Poppie is looking for a home that can help her build up her fitness. She came in very overweight and although has lost some weight since being here, she could still do with losing a bit more. She will need further training and positive reinforcement around other dogs as she can be worried by them, but has been out with some of our dogs at the shelter and walks nicely with them.
Warby
DOB: March 2023
Sex: Male
Breed: Cocker spaniel x
Size: Medium
Energy level: High
About me: Warby is a typical spaniel with lots of energy. He loves people, is very friendly but will need someone who is around most of the day.
Cats: No, he cannot be rehomed with cats and small furries.
Dogs: He will need to be the only dog in the home. He is good with other dogs out on walks but will need further training and socialising.
Children: 15 years and over.
Ideal home: He will need someone who is around most of the day (or can take him to work!) He doesn’t like being left, so this would need to be built up slowly. He will need plenty of mental and physical stimulation to keep him busy.
Neo
Foster with a view to adopt
DOB: January 2020
Sex: Male
Breed: Cavachon
Size: Small
Energy level: Medium
About me: Neo is a very friendly and happy little boy! He came into us matted and severely underweight but he is the happiest little dog to be around. He adores people and loves going out for his walks.
Cats: Yes, he has previously lived with cats so could live with them again.
Dogs: Yes, he could live with another dog after several meets here at the shelter. He currently isn’t neutered due to being underweight, so any dog in the home will need to have been done.
Children: 5 years and over.
Ideal home: He will need someone who is around most of the day (or can take him to work!) as he adores being with people. He will also need a garden of his own.
Pixie
DOB: November 2019
Sex: Female
Breed: Cavalier King Charles x
Size: Medium
Energy level: Medium – high
About me: Pixie is a sweet spaniel who loves to go for a long walk but also cuddle up on the sofa.
Pixie really struggled in kennels so we found a foster home for her. Although she has settled well into another home environment she does display behavioural issues which will need managing. Sadly, she has had a lot of changes in her life and this has resulted in fear based growling. We had a behaviourist assess her and she believes that this is her way of dealing with multiple changes. She will need someone who is experienced and confident in dealing with this type of behaviour so that she can flourish into the typical spaniel we know her to be.
Cats: No, she cannot live with cats or small furries.
Dogs: Yes, she could live with another dog after several meets together.
Children: Adult only home.
Ideal home: Pixie will need an experienced and patient owner, either a single person or couple. She will need a home that can give her plenty of mental and physical stimulation to keep her happy, as well as redirect her anxiety around any changes in her life. She doesn’t resource guard but it can sound intimidating if you are not confident dealing with this type of behaviour. The behaviourist is also happy to support any new adopter.
Comments from her foster family:
Once Pixie had settled in, she is incredibly affectionate and loyal. She loves to play with her soft toys and is very food oriented. Using high value treats helps when trying to diffuse a situation where she feels particularly anxious. She is completely housetrained and loves to watch (and chase!) the wildlife in the garden. Overall she is a lovely dog and will make a great companion but she will need someone who is patient and understanding.
Diego
DOB: December 2020
Sex: Male
Breed: Lurcher x
Size: Large
Energy level: Medium – high
About me: Diego is a sweet and gentle boy. He loves to have zoomies but will happily take himself off to bed (or the sofa!) where he spends a lot of his day.
Cats: No.
Dogs: Diego is a sociable dog and we find that he prefers going on walks when other dogs go out too. We feel he will need to be rehomed with at least one other dog.
Children: 12 years and over.
Ideal home: Diego has already had a few homes prior coming to us. He will need a home with someone who is willing to give him further training and a consistent routine. He is a lovely dog to have around the house and will need a garden of his own.
