Trixie - 9 month old female Jack Russell Terrier cross Staffordshire Bull Terrier

Trixie is an adorable female Jack Russell Terrier cross Staffordshire Bull Terrier aged approximately 9 months old who is desperately looking for a mummy to call her own! She is great with other dogs and brilliant with people. She was picked up after spending a month living under a porta-cabin.

Trixie does need to be house-trained as she has been living wild for at least 4 weeks. She has shown signs of being an escape artist but only to get to the kennel staff. She loves attention!

Twinkle - 1 year old female Lurcher cross Staffordshire Bull Terrier

Twinkle is is a female Lurcher cross Staffordshire Bull Terrier aged approximately 1 year old. She is a bit nervous to start with but fine when she gets to know you. She was found running loose with a harness and lead attached but nobody has ever came forward to claim her.

She is now fully socialised with other dogs of all sizes. She is now very sociable and a very sweet natured and loving girl. She would be fine to live with older children as she has a nervous streak.

Tye - 3 year old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier

Tye is a 3 year old male black, brindle and white long-legged Staffordshire Bull Terrier. He was found in a shed with a severe leg injury where it was half hanging off, and incredibly emaciated, a vet was called out to assist and he was taken to the vets, while there the leg fell off before they could amputate it, he must have been in agony and suffering immensly.

Our branch was contacted to assist in the matter. A Staffordshire Bull Terrier was reported missing 2 weeks prior and the description fit Tye so the owner was contacted who took a few days to come in and confirmed Tye was his, however he didn’t want Tye back. Then changed his mind a few days later and took Tye home, another few days later he rang the vets and signed him over into RSPCA care.

Tye will be vaccinated, wormed/flead, micro-chipped, he is still about 3kg underweight, once he gets to a good weight he will be castrated. He is not on any medication now and has had his stitches removed.

Tye has had a traumatic time so at the moment he is a little depressed, but with love, tlc and time he will undoubtedly come out of his shell. He has already been in at least 2 homes after being a rescued dog, one was for a year with 4 children and a cat and his most recent was since Jan 08.

Tye has a very friendly nature and loves people, which is just typical of the breed we believe Tye is generally good with other dogs (he’s already been happily walking alongside and enjoying a good sniff with a greyhound bitch in our care!) and children, but we will assess him while he is in foster to be sure.

He also travels very well. He’s used to living in a flat and not really been off lead, he’s used to many walks though and is used to someone being around. He absolutely loves food and any treat going! He particularly loves to chew plastic bottles!

He is completely mobile on 3 legs and is not at all prohibited in what he can do, he has adapted very well so please do not let this put you off, please give him a chance.

We are looking for an experienced home considering what he’s been through, a toddler free home as we believe he’s normally quite lively and bouncy. We really want a lovely home with a nice garden where someone is around a lot, at most works part time, lots of walks and socialising once he’s settled and above all love and a secure and stable future.

Charlotte - 10 year old female Labrador Cross

Charlotte (ref 69d) is a 10 year old shy but extremely lovable smooth-coated female Black Labrador cross. She arrived at Derby RSPCA Centre when her last owner, who owned a very large number of dogs, found herself no longer able to cope with so many animals.

She is essentially a gentle and friendly dog who really loves being stroked, but she is still a tiny bit timid when faced with new experiences.  She simply needs to gain a little more confidence.

Charlotte doesn’t have much experience of going for walks, so she needs to get the hang of it gently and quietly so that she doesn’t get alarmed.  She finds heavy traffic and sudden sharp noises a bit unsettling at present and can sometimes look a little worried when strangers pass near her on the pavement, but she is already so much more confident and intrepid than she was and should adjust very quickly as long as she gets plenty of walks.

Charlotte would be suitable for a calm, gentle and loving household where she would be allowed plenty of time to adjust to life and where her new owners have experience and understanding of dogs.

She will require plenty of exercise, so an active but non-rowdy home would be the right place for Charlotte.  Any children living in the household would need to be aged 10+ and very kind to animals, because she doesn’t yet know how to play and noisy, rough behaviour would frighten her.

She is used to living with dogs but seems to ignore cats altogether at present. She has had precious little training, but is a pleasant and intelligent dog who should be reasonably swift to learn. Charlotte is a very, very likeable dog who deserves a long and happy life in a loving new home surrounded by patient, loving, caring, dog-friendly people.
