Dogs Trust in Leeds has several dogs and puppies and these are the ones that currently need re-homing this February (all photos from Dogs Trust Leeds):
7. Lyle
Lyle is a lovely lad who has a lot of potential in the right hands. He's three years old and although he's old enough to know better, he does still lack self-control! He's absolutely full of beans and always on the go so will need a lot of patience from his owners as he learns the ropes of home life. He'll need very dedicated people who have a good understanding of dog training and who are passionate about gradually bringing out Lyle's potential. He is extremely strong on lead so you must be able to confidently handle him out and about. He is a very intelligent dog and very willing to learn. His love of food really helps when doing training tasks with him. If you are looking for a smart boy who enjoys lots of interaction and will be a bit of an ongoing project, then Lyle is your boy!
8. Tasha
Tasha is a big fluffy bundle of love! She loves being around people and is immediately friendly with everyone she meets. She'll always hang around until you give a little bum scratch! Unfortunately, she isn't so keen on other dogs so will need to be walked in quieter areas where they won't come up close to her. Her muzzle training is coming along well though and she walks beautifully on lead. She may be nine years old but she's still a very playful girl and loves her toys. Unlike many Akita's she really likes you to play with her and give her as much fuss as possible. So if you're looking for a guaranteed snuggle buddy then Tasha is your girl! Tasha will need a little patience as she settles in to her new home. She can't be left initially but in time, and if done very gradually, she should be okay to be built up to being left for short periods. She'll need to be the only pet in and adult only home where there won't be any young children visiting.
