Kyeema and Munch – 2 1/2 year old female Cross-Breeds


Kyeema and Munch are both 2 1/2 year old Cross-Breeds and have been together in the same home since 8 weeks old, so we would prefer to rehome these together. Kyeema is very loyal, she will follow you round everywhere, wanting to be loved, even going as far as trying to sleep at the bottom of the bed or sitting next to you on the sofa! She also loves food so wherever there is food she will be there!

She still gets boisterous and jumps up when people come round and has lots of energy so must be walked at least twice a day. Kyeema has good recall if rewarded with treats, she will always come back and is always looking to see where you are. She is good with other dogs but has a tendency to want to play with them. Kyeema is fully housetrained, in good health, she will sit, give paw, walk on a lead but pulls is far better on a halti type harness round the nose. Ok with children but gets a little boisterous and jumps up when people first visit.

Kyeema

Munch is so loving and has a great temperament, her tail is always wagging and always wants love and attention. Munch is addicted to fetching the ball and will do it all day if she could; she hates being brushed or anyone go near her with the nail clippers. Munch still gets very excited when people come round and jump up at them for attention. As with Kyeema she needs to be walked twice a day, but if you take a ball she will chase it and not bother with anything else, but she will run to other people with her ball for them to throw it for her! She is good with other dogs and people. She will come back on recall but doesn’t like having a lead put on, once it’s on she is ok, she does pull on a lead so we use a halti and she is a lot better. Munch is fully housetrained and will sit and give a paw. Munch has had a slipping patella tendon in her leg which has been operated on and now fully in place as she had a pin put in her knee, to some people you would not have a clue as she is constantly running around but will limp slightly when she has done too much.

Munch

Both dogs can be left for up to 5 hours, as long as they have had enough exercise they will just sleep. They both want, and give lots of love. We are looking for an active family home who can give lots of exercise, no full time workers and no young children. These dogs must be housed indoors as family pets.

He can be excitable and boisterous but is very gentle around the child.

Max – 2 year old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier


Max is a superb example of a 2 year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier. He is a small dog, only 15 inches, and a very well made, good looking boy. He is exceptionally friendly and a very strong, active little boy who loves his walks and lots of cuddles and kisses. He snuggles up against you whilst you watch TV. Max travels well in the car but is very vocal for the first few miles due to excitement.

He is house trained, well behaved in the house, and can be left alone for short periods. Due to his boisterous enthusiasm he pulls hard at first but settles down especially in a harness. He doesn’t seem bothered by other dogs or people when he is out and about on a walk. Max will need a lot of exercise. Max is quiet at night, sleeping in his basket in the kitchen. Max is being treated for a skin allergy at the moment which is preventing us from getting him vaccinated on veterinary advice until it is cleared up. Neutered, treated for fleas and worms, microchipped.

Robinson Crusoe – 1 year old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier


Curled up for days on a wet mattress in the middle of a field, Robinson Crusoe a 1 year old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier who was on his own island of despair after being thrown out of a car and badly injured – his only crime is being a bull breed. In the freezing weather with snow on the ground, he was abandoned and lonely – he just lay there shivering without the energy to move.

He was desperately thin, his coat in a dreadful state and he was shivering. He did not deserve this….. because despite that appalling treatment by mankind, Robinson Crusoe is the most wonderful, kind, affectionate Staffordshire Bull Terrier. He is a small dog, a young adult about a year old. He is exceptionally well behaved, shows no aggression to people or animals and just loves everyone he meets. He has responded to the kindness of the fosters and blossomed into an extrovert, happy character with a huge personality and tremendous sense of fun.

This little dog will make a wonderful family pet, he needs a home where he will not be left for long periods and where he will get all the love he needs forever to make up for the huge sadness and loss he has suffered in his short life. Are you the person to make the biggest difference to this lovely boy? Could this be your hand stroking him? Have you enough compassion to bring him into your heart forever? Neutered, treated for fleas and worms, microchipped

Connie – 2 year old female Labrador Retriever


Connie is a 2 year old female Labrador Retriever and is one of the best golden Labradors I have ever met, she is a stunning dog, well balanced and moves beautifully, just the right weight, very well put together and extremely good looking. Connie is very boisterous but absolutely brilliant with children, she is currently fostered with 6 children and a new born baby.

However care is needed when she is feeding as she is showing signs of food possession so the children must be kept away from her when she is eating. Connie is well trained, and needs a lot of exercise and mental stimulation to keep her intelligent mind active. Connie must be housed indoors as a family pet and new owners will have to demonstrate they can give enough exercise and training.

No full time workers please. This is a very special dog and we are looking for a Labrador home where she will be much appreciated and loved and given everything she needs. Neutered, vaccinated, treated for fleas and worms
