Arwen could live with children aged 10+. She would like to be the only dog in the home, but could potentially live with cats or other small animals, although we have no history of her behaviour around such animals.Arwen is a lovely little lady who absolutely adores spending time with her humans and simply loves attention! She is full of beans and so will need an active family who can keep up with her and take her on lots of lovely adventures, keeping her both mentally and physically stimulated.Arwen has had a poor start to life, we have very little background information about her, but we do know that was previously left in a garden most of the time. Arwen has shown some signs that she may struggle when left alone and so she will need a family who are prepared for this and are able to slowly build up the amount of time she is left for.Arwen does also typically prefer to have space from other dogs and can, at times, be a little reactive. She will need a family who are confident and capable of managing this behaviour, whilst working on her training to help her learn some more appropriate responses.This sweet lady is such a pleasure to spend time with. She is so fun to be around and often has us laughing with her daft ways and her little tappy tappy toe dance as she sees you coming. She loves nothing more than human company – she is such a friendly girl – nobody is a stranger to Arwen! She would spend all day being made a fuss of and needs a family who are able to spend a lot of time with her.Despite the life Arwen has previously had, she still has so much love to give and more than deserves to finally be shown what the safety and security of a true forever home feels like, where she can be spoilt rotten and shown the love she should’ve always known from her forever family.Arwen hast had medication for an upset stomach. Whilst now resolved, this will likely be classed as a pre-existing condition and any future flare-ups unlikely to be covered by pet insurance.

‹› Dolly and Teddy This pair arrived in a very neglected state but despite everything, they were such happy and friendly little souls! They have been thoroughly vet checked, had antibiotics, medicated baths and a good groom to remove the heavy matting and they are looking good Teddy’s hair is growing in so well and skin is looking amazing. Dolly is hugely improved but will still need medicated baths twice weekly until we have her skin looking perfect. They are not related but have lived together for many years and despite Dolly being a bossy boots, they do adore each other.

‹› Dougie A big, handsome boy with a fun, bouncy personality. Dougie certainly isn’t for everyone………..he will be a huge commitment for exercise and training. This breed needs a very active home to stop them becoming bored and causing unwanted behaviours. His previous owners found him to be very destructive and physically very demanding. Dougie loves people and other dogs, but many dogs would struggle to cope with his boisterous behaviour. He will probably be best as the only pet so his new owner can focus on his training.

‹› Eddie Eddie is a lovely, friendly dog who needs the calm and routine of a new home. He finds kennel life very stressful which is not nice to see! Eddie loves his walks and does start to relax when he is walked but we are struggling to get him to relax. Eddie does enjoy meeting other dogs but he has never lived with one. Have you got a quiet home you would like to share with Eddie?

‹› Enzo Enzo is a fun, friendly boy who adores people and lots of cuddles. he would like his new owner to be around for most of the day to keep him entertained. Enzo loves his exercise and he walks very nicely on lead. However, he does have a very strong prey drive so he will need to be kept on lead he public places. Enzo is good with other dogs but he does get over excited when dogs are running. A lovely boy who would benefit from further training.

‹› Hallie Hallie has just retired from racing and she is now needing the comfort of a new home. She is finding the outside world a very scary place, so her new owner will need to have the time and patience to help her adjust to a new environment. Hallie has not reacted to other dogs on her walks and we find that walking with another dog can help her. Hallie is looking for a quiet home.

‹› Halo Halo is typical terrier……he is full of life and character! A friendly, confident boy who loves people and attention. Halo can be a little lead reactive when meeting other dogs so there is work to be done to help him remain neutral around other dogs. If Halo is walked with other dogs he does relax and is happy in their company. Halo would benefit from a new owner with terrier experience, they can be challenging and aren’t the dog for everyone.

Joker could live with children aged 10+. He could potentially live with other dogs, but no cats or other small animalsJoker is a super friendly and confident young lad who loves being around people and getting all the attention he possibly can! His other favourite things are food and chasing his toys around – his favourite toy being his flirt pole!Joker walked into the shelter without a worry in the world, but does find being in a kennel a little stressful. Once out and about on his walks he is awesome and loves exploring his environment enjoying all the sniffs!Joker responds well to commands and, as he is so food motivated, training comes easily too him!Joker can jump high which will need to be considered by any potential rehomers – though management using a longline or similar when he first goes home should be a simple solution to keeping his paws on the floor!Joker is quite simply an all-round good lad who we have no doubt will bring so much love and so may laughs to his new home.

He would like to be the only dog in the home, but could potentially live with cats or other small animals, although we have no history of his behaviour around such animals.Koda is a lovely little lad who enjoys socialising with his human friends. He’s an enthusiastic boy and even greets strangers as if they’re his best friend!He absolutely loves getting out and about on his walks and also enjoys playing with his toys – particularly balls or soft toys.Koda has been a well-behaved lad whilst in our care but did display some challenging behaviours whilst in a foster home. He can sometimes struggle to regulate his big feelings and can make some silly choices, resulting in undesirable behaviours. He needs an experienced home who are capable and confident in managing Koda’s behaviours whilst continuing to work on his ongoing training to help him learn some more appropriate responses and better outlets for his feelings.Koda would also rather not interact with other dogs and so he needs a family who can respect this and advocate for him and his space in the outside world.This cheeky chap desperately needs a family who can offer him the time, patience and commitment he needs. He will undoubtedly require consistent training from his new family and needs an experienced home who can provide him with the understanding, structure and boundaries he needs. We know that, for the right family, Koda has so much potential to make a fantastic addition and will reward them immensely for giving him the life he deserves.Koda has undergone BOAS and NARES surgery. Any potential rehomers should be aware that, if he were to have any future related issues, these are likely to be classed as a pre-existing condition and won’t be covered by pet insurance. The rehoming team will discuss Koda’s veterinary history in further detail with any successful applicants.
