Sheba
Sheba is a 1 year old Rough Collie. She is a sensitive girl who takes time to trust her handler. Once she is confident, she is affectionate, bouncy and bubbly but remains fearful of new people and environments.
She is looking for a very stable rural home where ideally there is only two adults and not many comings and goings.
She would also benifit from living with another dog that is sociable and has a happy go lucky personality to help her cope in scarey situations.
Unfortunatly due to no previous history of living with children and her sensitive nature Sheba can not live with children and idealy there would be no visiting children to the home.
Sheba’s new owners need to have had experience of owning dogs before and knowledge of collie breeds would be a great advantage, an interest in training and some experience of dealing with nervous dogs would also be beneficial. She needs a very active home with owners that have time to meet both her physical and mental needs.
Sheba can not be left for long periods of time, 1-2 hours maximum in any one day.
Sheba will be a very rewarding companion and once settled will keep you entertained with her puppy like antics and playful nature.

Harley is a 6 months old German Shepherd X Labrador. She is playful, enthusiastic, boisterous and sometimes a bit naughty!!!
Due to Harley not having very much training at an early age, she can prove a bit much for some people. She has lots of potential in training and would require owners who are willing to put lots of time and effort into this.
She would be best suited to a home with only adults and older teenagers that could have a positive influence on her training and general lifestyle.
Harley would be best placed as the only animal in the home.
Harley can be left upto an hour at the moment. Time alone could be built up slowly.
Harley is looking for experienced owners that can cope with a young, enthusiastic and boisterous dog.

14Jan2007 | The Blue Cross | READ MOREPip
Pip is a 2 year old Male Jack Russell Terrier cross. He is playful, friendly and affectionate once he knows you and loves nothing more than being around people and getting fusses.
He loves to play fetch with a tennis ball and loves having his belly scratched. He also loves playing with people and having mad scat arounds. He can be a little wary of loud noises and sudden movements.
Pip could live with children of 8 years and over. He would be best placed as the only dog in the home and will need a good recall before being allowed off lead as he can be a bit snappy with some dogs. No cats or small furries.
Pip would require a secure garden and could be left for 2 - 4 hrs. Pip has been in the centre 3 times and really through no fault of his own. He is a truly fantastic little chap looking for someone to take him home forever!!

Ozzy is a 2 years and 2 months old medium sized cross breed. He is a friendly dog who is good with strangers but can be worried until he gets to know you. We are looking for a local home for Ozzy as he will need training and may need frequent visits to us for advice.
He will need someone who is home most of the time as he is not fully housetrained. He would be better in a home with another dog as he has lived with one in the past and responds well to them and it will give him more confidence. Ozzy will need to be in an adult only household. If someone can give Ozzy the time and training he will make a lovely pet.
