Nico – 9 year old male German Shepherd Dog
Nico is a 9 year old, neutered male German Shepherd Dog. Three years ago Nico developed cataracts and is now permanently blind. He was brought into us due to his owner working long hours and she didn’t think she could give him the care and attention he needed. He is a lovely laid back gentle dog who loves everybody he meets. His condition does not affect him in any way.
He goes out for walks and loves to be let off his lead and doesn’t go very far. Nico is very responsive when he gets to know your voice and will do basic commands. He loves to sit with us in the office as he just loves human company. He will need a quiet home with someone who is in most of the time. He is very good with other dogs and has lived with cats in the past. Nico is neutered ,flead ,wormed chipped and vaccinated.

Nipper is a 10 year old Cross-Breed male. He was brought into us as his owner has a terminal illness and could no longer care for him. He had owned Nipper from a pup and sadly being separated from his owner has affected Nipper, who was very fearful of anyone who approached him. In the short time he has been with us, he has come a long way. He now adores all the staff and even has a couple of kennel pals.
Nipper is very playful and puppy like, he loves his walks and is young at heart. He is okay with other dogs once he knows them but he really needs a home on his own with no other animals. He knows basic commands and is very loyal and loving. Please come and see me as my picture does not do me justice.

Bramble is a 12 week old black and brindle male Cross-Breed. He was handed into us as a stray who was underweight and extremely hungry. He is now being fed regular meals, and awaiting a home of his own. His is a typical puppy in that he is full of mischief and wants to be involved in everything that’s going on around him. Like all puppies he will need training and socialisation to ensure he gets the right start in life.
He is good with other dogs, although he needs to be taught some boundaries as sometimes he can get too over excited when playing. Bramble is used to being in a crate and is making excellent progress with his house training, with only the odd accident now. Ideally we are looking for an owner who has had previous experiences in raising a pup and knows all the challenges they may face. We would like his new owners to enrol him in puppy training classes. He will be ok in a household with children over 10 years old. Bramble is fully vaccinated, microchipped, flead and wormed and will be neutered when he is old enough.

Tessa – 8 year old female German Shepherd Dog

Tessa has been with us for such a long time now and is doing great having been given regular meals and weekly grooming. Tessa is good with people and tolerates other dogs but ideally would suit a home with no other animals.
She is a very laid back and gentle lady who likes nothing better then to sit at your feet all day. Tessa, like many of her breed, suffers from hip problems which mean some days she is less spryly then she wants to be, she will need medication to help control her condition. She would love a home where she can retire and enjoy the rest of her life knowing she will be loved and cared for and not have to go hungry ever again. Tessa is neutered, fully vaccinated, de-flead, wormed and microchipped.
