Jasper – 3-5 year old male Jack Russell Terrier Cross

Jasper is a very friendly little Jack Russell cross aged between 3-5 years old. He gets on well with people and dogs, travels well in the car and charmed everyone on the sponsored walk. We can’t understand why he hasn’t been snapped up, he’s such a smashing little dog.

Max – 18 month old male Collie cross German Shepherd

Max is a good looking Collie cross German Shepherd aged 18 months old. Due to his early upbringing, when he was kept in and not socialised, Max was extremely nervous when he arrived but this has now improved so much that we decided he could go on the sponsored walk and he did very well.


He was good with all the other dogs though still a little nervous when approached by people. Max would need understanding and patient owners to help him to gain confidence. Once he trusts you he is very friendly.

Biggles travelled well in the car and was really good in the vets. He sat nicely and didn’t fuss when some more dogs came in. He has wonderful ears – the photo’s don’t do them justice. They stand up when he is listening and he looks so cute!

He has spent a few weeks with a family who say that he was well behaved in all ways, great with the children and good with other dogs.

Freddy – 2 year old male Jack Russell Terrier

Freddy is a small type Jack Russell Terrier aged about 2 years. He is brilliant with other dogs, very active and loves to be out and about. Although he is well behaved when out walking he can be unpredictable in the house and needs a very experienced owner who won’t be intimidated by him and can teach him how to behave. He lived with Jan for a few weeks and there was a marked improvement in his behaviour. His new owners would need to continue with his training guidelines and our trainer would be on hand to offer help and advice. Freddy would need a home with no children or cats but would be fine with other dogs.

Connie – 1-2 year old female Cross-Breed

Connie is a cross-breed female aged 1-2 years old. She is very fussy and friendly and although she is only small she is surprisingly strong for her size and would be a bit too boisterous for young children. An active family for lots of walks and games would suit Connie.

Pebbles – 1-2 year old female Cross-Breed

Pebbles is a gorgeous 1-2 year old female Cross-Breed who came into the rescue with her sister Jasmine. She is affectionate and friendly but the quieter of the two sisters.She travels well in the car and is fantastic on walks. She is playful and lots of fun but can be a little nervous at times so we would prefer her to go to an adult only home where she can come out of her shell and become part of family life.
