Ollie – 7 year old male Tibtan Terrier

Hello, my name is Ollie. I’m a seven year old male, Tibetan Terrier. I arrived at The Mayhew because my owner was moving to a property which doesn’t allow pets. I am a calm and intelligent boy. I’m aloof with strangers but very friendly with people I know. I’m toilet-trained, well-behaved, I know the usual commands which I respond well to, I walk nicely on my lead without pulling and I travel well in the car. I’m not keen on being alone and I will cry when left on my own in the house. I enjoy going to the park, I don’t tend to wander very far, preferring to stay close by. I get along ok with other dogs but I can sometimes be a little grumpy around them. I can also be grumpy if you disturb me when I’m eating or try to take something from me. I’m and affectionate boy and I love being stroked. I’m not really into toys, I’d much rather be receiveing cuddles! My foster carer says I’m an easy and undemanding dog who settled down quickly.

I am now looking for a forever home with an experienced owner who has researched my breed type. I’m looking for an all adult home without visiting young children. I could live with another larger sized dog providing we’re the right match but no cats please. I will need a home where there is somebody around for most of the day and my new owners will be expected to provide me with a minimum of one hour of off lead exercise daily. If you’re interested in offering me a home you will need to be fully prepared for the hard work and long-term commitment involved in caring for a dog, you will be taking on an eight year commitment, which must not be taken lightly.

I hope to see you soon

Sky – 5 year old female Siberian Husky

Hello, my name is Sky. I’m a five year old female Siberian Husky. I arrived at The Mayhew because my owners separated and neither of them felt they could look after me. I am a very friendly and affectionate girl. I’m toilet trained, I can be left on my own for a few hours without any problems and I travel well in the car. I’m well-behaved and obedient and I know all the usual commands which I respond well to. I’m also sociable and out-going and I get along well with everyone I meet and I always greet people with a waggy tail. I also get along well with other dogs but I won’t tolerate them pestering me and I’ll tell them off if they become too boisterous.

I am now looking for a forever home with someone who has owned dogs before and has researched my breed type. I would happily live with sensible teenagers and I could live with another male dog providing we’re the right match but no cats please. My new owners will be expected to provide me with a minimum of one hour of active off lead exercise in the park every day. If you’re interested in adopting me you will need to be fully prepared for the hard work and long-term commitment involved in caring for a dog, you will be taking on an eleven year commitment, which must not be taken lightly.

Carly – 1 year old male Pomeranian Cross

Hello, my name is Carly. I’m a one year old female Pomeranian mix. I arrived at The Mayhew because my owners decided they no longer wanted me. I am an affectionate and timid girl. I’m very friendly with people I know but I’m nervous of strangers and I will sometimes snap at the if they approach me too quickly, however I make friends easily with people who take their time with me and allow me to introduce myself in my own time. I’ve not had much socialisation around other dogs and I will bark at them until I get to know them. I will also bark if I’m feeling insecure. I’m eager to please but I’ve not had much training so I will need plenty of time and dedication from my new owners to teach me all the basics. I am a very playful girl and I’m starting to learn how much fun can be had with toys. I’m also very loyal and loving and I enjoy cuddling up next to people I know and I will roll over to have my tummy rubbed at a moments notice.

I am now looking for a quiet forever home with someone who is experienced with dogs and has researched my breed type. I’m looking for an all adult home without visiting young children and I will need a home where there is somebody around for most of the day. I would happily share my new home with another confident dog providing we’re the right match. My new owners will be expected to continue my training and socialisation, take me to training classes and provide me with a minimum of one hour of off lead exercise every day. I will need to live in a house or a ground floor flat with direct access to a garden. If you’re interested in adopting me you will need to be fully prepared for the hard work and long-term commitment involved in caring for a dog, you will be taking on a fourteen year commitment, which must not be taken lightly.

I hope to see you soon

Toby – 3 year old male Greyhound

Hello, my name is Toby. I’m a three year old male Greyhound. I arrived at The Mayhew due to my owner’s ill health. I am a sweet natured, sensitive and affectionate boy. I’m sensible and calm indoors, I’m well behaved and I can be left on my own for a couple of hours without any problems. I’m a pleasure to take for a walk; I always walk nicely by your side. I can be easily intimidated by larger dogs I’ve not met before so I prefer to keep my distance and I can get over excited with smaller dogs so I need to wear a muzzle on my walks. I’m not really into toys, except in the evenings when if encouraged I enjoy a game with my teddies and I also like to dance with my foster carer’s daughter. Loud noises and stairs scare me, noisy teenagers also unnerve me. I’m super gentle and affectionate and I love to lean in for cuddles. My foster carer says I’m a laid back and easy boy who settled down quickly. I spend most of my time lying on my bed watching what’s going on in the house.

I can live with sensible and calm teenagers but no visiting young children please or cats. I could possibly live with another large sized dog providing we’re the right match. My new owners will be expected to provide me with a minimum of one hour of controlled off lead exercise in the park every day. If you’re interested in adopting me you will need to be fully prepared for the hard work and long-term commitment involved in caring for a dog, you will be taking on a twelve year commitment, which must not be taken lightly.
