Are you right for Alvin?Alvin is on the search for his forever home! His ideal home would be with an active family that can take him on new adventures and that will stimulate his brain. He wishes for adopters who will continue with his training and teach him new skills to keep his brain busy. Alvin is looking to be the only dog and pet in the home, but would be happy to have walking friends when out and about. He could live with children aged 16+ if they are comfortable around his worries and behaviours and give him space when needed. Alvin would like his home to have minimal visitors, and when he is introduced to new people, he would like it to be done slowly and outside of the home. He is looking to live in a quieter home and residential area. Alvin would like to have his leave hours built up slowly as he is settling into his new environment. He would love a secure private garden where he can enjoy off-lead play and burn off some energy.Is Alvin right for you?Alvin is a fun little chap who absolutely loves a good fuss. During the day, Alvin likes to chill out on his soft blankets with all of his stuffies. He is happy to quietly settle and watch the world go by. Out on walks, Alvin is your typical spaniel, interested in everything! He loves to sniff around and explore, but will come back as soon as you say his name. He sits nicely for treats and politely takes them from your hand. Alvin is a super clever boy who knows his name 'sit' and 'down', along with having very good recall. He loves to use his brain! If you're looking for a dog who is always up for an adventure and can offer him a quieter home, Alvin is your pawfect match!

BreedCocker Spaniel X Poodle

Annie is a young, active girl who is just learning how fun the world is. Even after not having the best start to life she is full of energy and loves to explore and adores human company, she will be looking for a family where someone can be around most of the time to start with until she has settled in as she does struggle alone at the moment. Ideally the home would have its own secure garden in case she needs a little time to get used to going out for walks as she hasn’t been used to the outside world. We think she would suit a family with older children as she can get worried by loud noises and quick movements. Annie could share her home with another similar sized dog; she loves to play and has not shown any problems around beds toys or treats but may need to learn that she cannot play constantly. Annie has stolen the hearts of all the staff and volunteers she has met and once shes settled into the home we think she will be so much fun. She has had very little training beforehand so is learning all the basics and this will need continuing in the home as well as refreshing on toilet training so needs a family willing to do this. We feel Annie could also share her home with a cat, as long as scent swaps and an introduction goes ok. If you are after a playful, lively girl and the time to put in to train and socialise her – then look no further!​

Cocker Spaniel Black 9 Years (approx) Apply now Meet Bella, a beautiful cocker spaniel with a heart full of love and a story of resilience. Bella came into our care 12 weeks ago in a very poor condition and heavily pregnant. Since then, she has made an incredible transformation. She safely gave birth to three gorgeous puppies, lovingly raised them, and has since watched them head off to their new homes. Now, it’s Bella’s turn to find the forever family she truly deserves. Bella is a peoplefocused dog who thrives on human companionship. She is affectionate, cuddly, and will do best in a home where she can enjoy plenty of attention throughout the day. She could happily live with respectful teenage children who understand her needs. Despite being 9 years old, Bella is still full of energy and embodies all the traits of a typical spaniel. She absolutely loves the outdoors; especially countryside walks where she can follow her nose and explore new scents. An active home that enjoys getting out and about would be perfect for her. Bella would be happiest as the only dog in the home. While she can socialise with other dogs once building a relationship, she has shown some resource guarding behaviours around food and her bed (directed towards other dogs, not people). To ensure she can relax without the need for close management, a singlepet home is the best fit. Bella has given so much, now she’s ready to receive the love, stability, and care of a forever home. I know how to sit (and lots of other commands too!) I could live with children of secondary school age I can be left alone for short periods I'd prefer to be the only dog in a home I'd prefer not to live with a cat I'm young at heart I love fuss and attention DOG Cocker Spaniel Black 9 Years (approx)

Bella is a special girl who needs a suitable home.Bella is a beautiful little Cocker spaniel x Retriever who needs a suitable adult only home. She isnt suitable around kids, so needs a home with no kids and if any kids are visiting she would need to be kept seperately. She is crate trained, so could be placed in a crate in a seperate room.Bella is ok with other dogs on walks and can share her play area with other dogs no problem, but she would like to be the only dog in the home as she much prefers her own space. She likes playing with her toys and would play fetch all day if you let her. She is also happy to content herself running around with a toy in her mouth or watching the birds. She does walk ok on the lead in quiet and rural areas, but in busier areas she has a tendancy to pull towards fast moving objects such as cars, cyclists etc. Aslong as she gets her needs met through excercise or brain games she is a happy girl. If she doesnt and she gets bored, she can start staring at shadows/reflections due to boredom. She is used to sleeping a crate at night time. She did have a nipping/biting incident in her previous home when they tried to pick her out of the carboot while she was sleeping, so its believed she may have some sleep startle. We have had no aggression from her during her time with us, she is very food and toy orientated which makes training easier. She is a good girl who just needs a suitable forever home.Before coming into our care, Bella did suffer from ongoing tummy issues. Tests were done and it was discovered she had been dealing with an ongoing parasite infection which required special medication to treat. She has now completed two courses of this medication to make sure all the bugs are dead. But as a result of the years without treatment, she has been left with a sensitive tummy and can have flair ups of soft stool at times.

This is Benny who is a 10 Months old Working Cocker Spaniel, looking for a very experienced owner, preferably having lots of outdoor space or who works outdoors and could take him with them. He is a high drive, sharp example of a working spaniel. Don’t confuse him with couch potato spaniels you may know, he is an adolescent dog, full of himself and energy. He is excellent with other dogs and great off/on lead and in the car. The down side is we have reports that he can be challenging and possessive, especially when unsure of his environment or the situation. He will need structure, firm guidance but most of all routine and consistency in how he is handled. He will only be rehomed in a situation without children, where the new owner shows experience or aptitude with working dog breeds. As with all our dogs Benny will be castrated, vaccinated, wormed and house trained. A and B Dogs and the incorporation of an animal saviour charity. DOGHELPUS.
