Chunky – 3 year old male Cross-Breed


This handsome boy is Chunky, he is a 3 year old medium sized Cross-Breed, with a little Alaskan Malamute, German Shepherd and Collie in the mix. Chunky can be timid initially & does take quite a while before you can gain his trust, but once this is achieved he is incredibly loving & loyal. Due to this, his new family will need to visit whilst he is at the centre a few times whilst his confidence builds up. Chunky is good with other dogs so is able to live with another one. He is unsuitable to live with cats. Chunky is suitable to live in an adult home only.

Stewie – 2-3 year old male Jack Russell Terrier


Please meet adorable Stewie who is an adorable 2-3 year old Jack Russell Terrier who was found living as a stray with another terrier in the welsh mountains. Stewie is living at home with me in foster at the moment, and although very wary and nervous at first, he now wags his tail so much, his whole body wiggles, when he sees me. If im quiet and calm, he will come to me for affection, and is becoming more and more comfortable with being stroked.

Initially he is a very scared and nervous boy, but he has come on so much already, and will continue to do so in a home who is sympathtic to his needs. Stewie would love a nice quiet home, with someone who has time and patience. He is such a rewarding dog to have around, everyday he comes on in leaps and bounds, and after just 2 weeks here he is already initiating play with me, and leaps up to give kisses.

Stewie has been castrated, microchipped, wormed, deflead and started his vaccinations. Stewie is good with other dogs, not cat tested. Best suited to a home without young children, only due to his nerves.

Stewie would be an ideal dog for an older person / couple. He is a fun, loving dog… who just needs time to allow him to build up his trust. Once he does, he will reward you by being a loving and loyal dog for the rest of his years.

Tinkerbell – 3 year old female Lurcher Cross


Tinkerbell is a black and white 3 year old female Lurcher Cross. Tinkerbell loves lots of attention and cuddles with everyone she meets if she can.

Tinkerbell has had a few problems with other dogs previously, so she needs to be the only pet in the household where she can have all the fuss & attention she likes. She is ok to live with children aged 12 or older who are used to dogs. Tinkerbell would love a home where they will be around for much of the day to keep her company & frolic with her. She is a nice calm girl who loves the company of people, so someone who works part time or from home would be ideally suited.

Hector – 3 year old male Labrador Retriever


This big lovable lump is our Hector, he is a 3 year old Yellow Labrador Retriever. He loves everything and everyone! He especially likes other dogs and doesn’t mind living with cats either. He also likes children.

Hector is a big strong boy and we use a Halti harness on him to stop him pulling too much. He could use some more training.

He is clean in the house and also travels well in the car. He does not mind being left for a few hours. He is microchipped, vaccinated and has a passport.

His party piece is walking between your legs and then wiggling his whole body. He finds it very amusing!! He is just a very typical Labrador, he loves swimming, walks, food and making people smile. I think he is just wonderful.

Poppy – 5 year old female Fell Terrier Cross


Poppy is a beautiful female tan and white 5 year old female Fell Terrier Cross. Poppy came to the centre as a stray so unfortunately we have no previous history about her. Poppy is wary of strangers initially (she is improving daily with this!!) but once she knows & trusts you she is your true friend for life!!!

Due to her nervousness of new people, the home we are seeking for this princess is a quiet home with children aged 16 & over who are calm, confident & used to dogs. Poppy strikes the perfect balance between lap dog & active go-getter terrier. She would prefer to be the only pet in the household so her new family can concentrate on her & her training.

Jake – 5 year old male German Shepherd Dog


Jake is a lovely 5 year old neutered German Shepherd Dog. Jake is being re-homed due to a marriage split. Jake is a very big powerful dog who would need to go to a home with GSD experience. Jake is currently living with a Staffordshire Bull Terrier with no problems, we feel that Jake could live with another laid back dog if carefully introduced. Jake is living with cats but owner says that he does not get on with strange cats outside the home. He is fine with women and children, although he can be a bit wary of men. Jake has not really been let of the lead much and will bark at other dogs when out, we think that this could be overcome with training.

Jake is currently living with the owners ex-wife, and she says that he doesn’t take a lot of notice of her when she gives him commands, she says that Jake basically was her husbands dog, and she really has not had much to do with Jake and his training. We are further assessing Jake, but if you can offer this lad a foster/permanent home please contact us. We will re-home Jake with older children only.
