7. Billy
Billy is looking for a home where his owners are around all of the time. He will need a longer settling in period until he feels comfortable. Owners with experience of the Patterdale breed would be ideal and also willing to help Billy with some basic training. He will need to be walked in quieter dog populated areas but he is friendly with dogs once he has settled in. Billy is an active boy and loves his walks, he will also need a secure garden where he can burn off some energy. Billy is friendly with people and could live with sensible children over the age of 12 years.
8. Buster
How handsome is Buster? He's absolutely adored by all his handlers and here's why He's almost 3yrs old and although he had a very unsettled start in life has, he is the most loving boy. He's immediately friendly with everyone he meets and once he knows you well, he will shower you with affection. He loves being with his human friends and gets really playful if you bring his toys out. A game of fetch will always make him super happy! He's a trainers dream too because he loves his food. He's very eager to learn new things, especially if there are some tasty treats coming his way. He's very manageable around other dogs but doesn't like them getting in his personal space. This means he can't share his home with any other pets and will need to be walked in lower dog populated areas. He travels well in a car so driving him to peaceful spots won't be a problem. He's also housetrained, although may need a little refresher as he settles.
9. Beau
If you're looking for a fun and energetic dog and have a real passion for training, then let us introduce you to Beau. He's a 1-year-old Lurcher who is bursting with potential. A very unsettled start to his life has left him with some anxieties that his new family will need to understand and help him work on. He's a very friendly lad and likes plenty of fuss and attention but can get overly giddy. Being rather strong, this does mean that being around young children wouldn't be suitable. Over 16's will be fine however. He can be worried by unfamiliar people entering his home, so a family with few visitors will be best. He can also be worried by other dogs, however we are working on this with him. He's super smart and loves doing training tasks. If you keep his brain exercised, then you'll have one very happy boy!
10. Bruno
Bruno is an absolutely stunning brown and white american bulldog who is friendly with everyone he meets. He's very active and he's looking for owners who can keep up with him and his antics. Did we mention that he's super smart? So if you're looking for a training project then look no further than him.
11.
Ronan is a 2 year old German Shepherd Cross Husky. Whilst he is a very handsome lad, sadly he has spent most of his short life in lockdown and away from social situations. This has left him quite worried and unsure of how to behave when meeting new people and dogs. Our training and behaviour team have worked hard to build a good routine which helps Ronan to understand what's happening and not to be afraid. He's made brilliant progress and we're really happy that he's now ready to take the next step and find his forever home. We have found that once he has built a good bond with you, he is lots of fun. He enjoys playing with toys, loves his training and is incredibly affectionate with his best friends. He has had a couple of walking buddies at the centre, but his insecurities mean he cannot share his home with any other pets.
12. Taz
Taz is the absolute poster boy for all things Terrier! He's got loads of fun personality and loves the outdoors, but he's not one for too much hands on fussing. Once he really knows you, he does show an affectionate side, but he likes to be in control of any physical contact, so when he shows you he wants to have some alone time, just let him chill. At 10 years old he still has lots of life and energy in him. He loves walkies, is very happy doing training tasks and is always happy if there's a stuffed toy for him to destroy (like any good Terrier!) He has a history of being housetrained but will likely need a refresher as he settles into his new life.
