A New Leash For Life

At just 13 months old, Albie has already come so far on his journey and is now ready to find the loving family he deserves. Albie is a medium-sized, neutered mixed-breed boy who came into foster care in February. When he first arrived, he was terrified of people and found any kind of touch frightening. He would run away and hide, taking comfort from following his foster family's resident dog, who became his guide and source of reassurance. Happiness didn't seem to come easily to him. Fast forward a few months, and Albie is blossoming into the most wonderful young dog. Now, when his family comes downstairs in the morning or arrives home, he greets them with the sweetest wiggly bum and wagging tail. He actively seeks out affection, enjoys cuddles, and will happily roll over for a tummy rub when he's feeling relaxed and confident. Albie has worked incredibly hard to build trust and confidence. He has learned to sit patiently and wait for his food and treats, and he would love a family who will continue his training and help him discover just how much the world has to offer. One of Albie's favourite things is spending time with his foster family's children. He loves to play chase games, gets excited when they come home from school, and enjoys being part of the family routine. While he's waiting for playtime, you'll often find him having fun with the resident dog or following their lead. Because of his gentle and sensitive nature, Albie is looking for a home with experienced owners who understand nervous dogs and are willing to give him the time, patience, and encouragement he needs. He absolutely thrives alongside other dogs and gains huge confidence from them, so a resident dog is essential for him. Albie is dog-friendly, cat-friendly, and has happily interacted with visiting dogs. He is submissive rather than dominant and simply wants to make friends and play. Although Albie has not yet ventured out on regular walks, he is ready to start exploring the world at his own pace. Initially, he would benefit from spending time in a secure enclosed area where he can build confidence outdoors safely. Albie's story could have been very different. Before coming into foster care, he was living in an overcrowded public shelter where every day was filled with fear and uncertainty. Watching him discover that life can be fun, safe, and full of love has been truly special. Now all that's missing is a forever family to continue that journey. ️ Could you be the person to give Albie the amazing future he's been waiting for? Albie's ideal home: Young child-free home Secure enclosed garden required Experience of nervous or fearful dogs Dog and cat friendly Resident dog(s) essential to help build his confidence In foster in Hampshire Albie really is a very special boy, and whoever adopts him will have the privilege of watching him continue to grow into the happy, confident dog he was always meant to be.

Romanian Rescue Appeal

HANDSOME ALBIE is from Romania and has been in foster now for a few months, He is doing so well he is ready to move on to a furever home. He is in foster in Hampshire and living with a mix of male and female dogs. He is a cheeky boy, still learning, but bright and fun loving. He would be best rehomed with a friendly female or as an only dog. Albie is 15 months old, medium size, neutered and getting accustomed to life in a home, but he is doing really well. He is an intelligent boy and quick to learn with gentle training techniques. He is good and loving with people and would bond well and become a loyal companion. Ok with men, but has not been tested with children, so we would suggest older 12+. He is playful and loves to play with toys. Sorry but best not with cats.

RSPCA

Personality:Betty is a lovely affectionate girl who is just starting to show her playful side! This adorable lady came to us from a quiet home and so she was initially very scared but has now made loads of friends and is definitely ready to find her very own lap to occupy. She enjoys the company of her human friends and belly rubs, she will throw herself all over your lap for cuddles. Betty can be nervous of new places/things and has had to take things slowly at the centre. She is most relaxed in our home environment where she loves the sofa to lay on.Behaviour:Betty can make friends very quickly in a controlled way. On a walk Betty is still learning about the world and can get overwhelmed quickly, pull on the lead and gets flustered. New experiences will need to be spaced out and taken at Bettys pace. She can be strong on lead but is doing well with her training here at the centre, but this will need to be continued in the home.Housing:Betty will need her own private secure garden, and will need someone at home for the majority of the day whilst she gets used to being left on her own. She cannot be rehomed to he PO3 area.Children/pets:Betty loves her dog friends but needs to be the only pet in the household as she can be a little much. She has made lots of dog friends out on walks and so could have walking companions. Betty cannot live with children.Vet history:Betty is up to date with her flea and worming treatment, she will need to be returned to the centre to be spayed once she has settled.

Personality:Please welcome to the stage our very own resident rock star Rottie Mr Brian May. If you are ready for a Kind of Magic and are looking for someone to love then this big soft cuddle monster could be the dog for you. Brian is a friendly, playful boy who like most rottweilers’ doesn’t know how big he is and can be a little bit clumsy. He enjoys his walks and can walk calmly around other dogs and people. He enjoys his toys and a fuss from his favorite person. He can be strong on the lead at first but will walk nicely after the initial excitement.Behaviour:Brian is a big boy weighing 41kg and can jump up and pull on the lead so he will need a calm, strong and confident adopter who is able to commit to ongoing training to help him become the best version of himself. Experience with rottweilers or a similar guarding breed is ideal, knowledge and understanding of the breed will set him and his new family up for success. Brian can be uncomfortable in certain situations and adopters will need to be able to read when Brian need space/a break and advocate for him at these times. Full support and guidance from our behaviour team will be given and adopters will need to be open to working with us and following our guidance.Housing:Brian will need a garden where he can let off steam and will need a predictable routine including lots of exercise and mental stimulation. He was able to be left alone for short periods in his previous home so he should adapt to being left for some of the day once settled. He cannot be rehomed to the SO16 area.Children/pets:Brian needs a home where everyone is over 16. He would prefer to be the only dog in the home but could make doggie friends for walks. He lived with a cat in his previous home so could potentially live with a dog savvy cat again as long as adopters are prepared to do a gradual introduction and be prepared to actively manage their interactions, he could live with small animals who are kept separately.Vet history:Brian is fully vaccinated and up to date with flea and worming treatment. Castration may not be suitable for him so whoever adopts him should consider working with our behavior team to determine if this is the right choice for him and be open to alternatives.

Personality:Meet Bruce, our sweet mastiff puppy who is searching for his forever home. Bruce has found himself in our care at the young age of just five months and is just waiting to be snapped up! Bruce is a timid guy but warms up very quickly to new people but once he gets to know you, you will be greeted with a wiggle bum!. He is a big soft baby who is going to make a family incredibly happy. Bruce will thrive in a home with a family that is prepared to take on training and socialising and committed to helping Bruce settle into his new home.Behaviour:Bruce is currently in a foster home and doing very well. He sleeps well at nighttime and appears to be toilet trained. He is settling in well with another dog and would love to live with another confident dog to help show him the ropes. Bruce loves to play, have cuddles and is great fun to train. He responds very well to training and loves to please.Housing:Bruce would love to have his own garden to help build his confidence. We are looking for a 5* home for this guy as at only 5 months old he weighs 24kg so is going to be a big dog! If you are looking for a dog you can take to training classes and have fun adventures with, then Bruce could be the dog for you!Children/pets:Bruce can live with cats and dogs (pending successful dog meets here at the shelter) Bruce seems to warm quicker to female dogs but could live with a male dog if they are the right temperament. Bruce is currently in foster with a cat and takes no notice of them but adopters should be prepared to manage their environment initially. Bruce can live with all age children but he is a big bouncy boy so children should be confident around dogs.Vet history:Bruce will need to come back to the shelter when he is old enough to be castrated. He is up to date with flea, worming and vaccinations and has no on-going medical issues.
