Spot – 3 year old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier

Meet Spot, a 3 year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier who is looking for a new home and has been patiently waiting for a year now. He is a incredibly affectionate loving dog, who craves human company and loves giving and recieving cuddles and love. He adores his walks, and is an active boy who would need two good walks a day. He also loves playing fetch and will retrieve his toys and ‘drop’ when asked. He is very obedient once he has bonded with you, which doesn’t take long at all!

He’d love to be a part of every day household activities, and would need someone around most of the day as he loves human company too much that he really doesn’t like to be apart from you for too long! He does like to jump up for cuddles, and so because of this would need a house where any children were older, or he may knock them over in excitement! With training however, Spot’s enthusiastic cuddles could be toned down! Though it is just his way of showing you how much he loves you!

He needs to be homed as the only dog, with no cats. He’s not keen on other dogs, but ignores them on walks as he’s far more interested in his human companion! Spot is a real pleasure to walk, he doesn’t pull on his harness, and is very obedient. He will ‘sit’ and give a ‘paw’ for a treat, and is easy to train as he’s so eager to please you!

Spot is a real favourite here, and is adored by all staff and walkers! He is a fantastic dog, who would make a wonderful addition to any household. Spot hates kennels, and is desperate for that special person to choose him to be their forever friend. He’s been overlooked time and time again, and has had very little interest which surprises and saddens all of us who know and love him.

Can you offer Spot a place in your family?

Ashley – 6 year old male Greyhound

Ashley is a happy, friendly, sweet natured 6 year old Greyhound lad that loves meeting new people, though can be timid to start. Since being here has come out of his shell now but can be quite excitable especially when out and about.

Ashley can be quite strong on the lead but is at present being trained to walk on a halti as has a very strong chase instinct with regards to wildlife and cats, and his recall is not good so would benefit from further lead training especially barking and lunging at other dogs.

He likes to play with tennis balls but has not yet learnt the art of retrieval! Ashley is calm and quiet when left in kennels liking nothing better than snuggling up in his duvet after a good run. However, in his last home he became destructive and they found he wasn’t housetrained, although he had been fine in kennels. He is now being crate trained to help and he needs someone that is going to be at home most of the day for company.

He is good with other dogs, is not good with cats and ideally he should be homed with an active family where any children are aged10+. He will make a smashing addition to any family!

Barnie and Benny – 10 and 6 year old male Terrier Crosses

Meet Barnie and Benny they are Terrier cross boys that have been with us since early September 2009, as their elderly owner was unable to look after them.

Barnie is a 10 year old white and tan neutered male chap whereas; Benny is a 6 year old black and tan neutered male lad. They are happy, sweet natured lads that are inseparable and therefore must be rehomed together as Benny hates being parted from Barnie and they can often be seen curled up together. Barnie and Benny are very loving dogs, affectionate and eager to please, loving human attention. They are seeking someone that is at home most of the day as they love human company, but are fine to be left for short periods and are not destructive. They know some of their basic commands and Barney especially is playful whereas Benny just wants to join in!

(Benny)

Barnie is a very vocal chap when excited especially at the start of his walks and can be timid with strangers but is active and energetic. Benny is going to need plenty of exercise in his new home as he is obese and has been nicknamed ‘Dumpling’ and is on a special low fat diet to help him regain his figure.

Barnie and Benny are good with other dogs but best to be homed as the only pair have never mixed with cats and would be good in a family household where any children are aged 12 and older.

Can you give this inseparable pair an active life?

Barney – 6 year old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier Cross

Barney is a cute and cuddly 3-4 year old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier Cross who cannot wait to find a new home and hopes it fun-filled with walks a plenty. He was found a stray and therefore cannot be homed with children under 12 or other dogs and cats. He loves the company of humans and like all Staffies, he’s affectionate and full of fun. He is very popular with the staff at the rescue and loves coming for cuddles.

Sasha – 6-8 month old female Staffordshire Bull Terrier cross Whippet

Sasha is a gorgeous 6-8 month old female Staffordshire Bull Terrier cross Whippet who really needs to find a new home. She is very delicate and petite and has a wonderful coat.

She is friendly and fun loving with the staff at the rescue but because she is a stray we do not know what she is like with dogs or cats. For this same reason, we cannot rehome her with children under 12. She is desperate for some love as she is struggling in kennels. Have you got a home perfect for pretty Polly?
