Boyo is a beautiful red and white 2 years old Boxer, who is already neutered.He's currently in a foster home where he's being assessed so that we can understand the type of home he needs.He's a complex boy who needs to learn boundaries, and he'll need someone with patience because he's taken a while to settle in his foster home, but once he trusts you we think he'll make a lovely companion.He can be good with other dogs when out, but he will need a pet free home as he's not used to living with another dog.​ He will pull on the lead, but when there's no distractions he can walk nicely.He will need someone who will give him time to settle and build up the time being left aloneBoyo will definitely need time to decompress and settle into a new home, so a quiet, patient and calm household would be best.If you are interested in adopting Boyo, please call Julie 01508 218471 or email [email protected].Boyo is currently in foster in BedfordshireAdoption donation £400

​Buddy is a 16 month old red and white bobtail boxer.He has come into rescue because, although his family loved him, circumstances mean they were not able to give him the time, attention and training he needs.He can be nervous when meeting new people, especially men, and he will usually bark on first meeting, but is won over quite quickly with treats. He also displays his nervousness by barking at other dogs, especially if they bark at him first. ​He is a strong boy, his lead walking skills will need some work, and he will need to be taught about coming back when called. Buddy needs an experienced home that will work with him to make him feel secure. You will need to be prepared to work at his training to improve his walking and social skills, and to build up his confidence.If you would like to know more about Buddy or feel you could offer him a home, please contact Julie Semmence on 01508 218471 or email [email protected]​Currently Buddy is in kennels near Kettering, North Northants where you would need to go to meet him.Buddy will need to be neutered once he's settled in his new home and HCBW will fund this. ​Adoption donation £400

Denzel is a lovely sweet boy. He is friendly with everyone and loves a snuggle on the sofa. He can be excitable, but with the right calm leadership he settles and can relax.He will need a home where someone is around most of the time, and can work on his separation anxiety. A calm home that is fairly quiet with not too much going on so that he can learn to relax and relinquish responsibility. He will chase cats. He can travel in the car - he is anxious to start and will then settle.​He is ok on the lead, he can pull but is correctable, he will need work on his recall. He's been good with meeting other dogs in the vet reception, and he's been great with strangers, and with kids (although maybe a little cautious sometimes), and he's been good at the cafe. He can get overwhelmed with too much too soon, but if you take things slowly and respect his boundaries, he is fine.​He is a very sensitive boy and will react to the situation he is in, he can be a handful at times but with a confident, patient handler and with clear, consistent guidance, and boundaries, he is quite happy to follow.

He is generally a very good natured boy who travels well and can be left on his own for a couple of hours once he is settled into his new home.He is very quick to learn - especially when treats are available! He’s a strong boy but he has learnt to walk well on a lead and his recall is good, although once he knows you he’s very loyal and never really goes very far from you anyway.At home he is very chilled and loving, but he does like to have the odd half hour throwing toys around and playing, and he loves to do Zoomies round the garden!He needs a pet free home where someone is prepared to continue with his training – definitely NO cats because he will chase them. We are preferably looking for an adult only home, or one with dog-savvy older children/teenagers.No catsNo young childrenIf you are interested in adopting Winston and would like to know more about him, please contact Karen via email [email protected] or on 07712 669707A satisfactory home-check will need to be done (unless we have done one recently) and you will need to be able to travel to meet him.
