Rita – 2-4 year old female Staffordshire Bull Terrier cross Beagle
Rita is young 2-4 year old Beagle cross Staffordshire Bull Terrier. She came into our care with 2 other dogs (Sue and Bob). They were removed from their alcoholic owner by the police. All 3 dogs were very scared and anxious of their new surroundings in kennels. We felt it was in the dogs best interest to separate them and work with them individually to rehabilitate them. Sue and Bob have both now been rehomed leaving just Rita. She is a wonderful dog who is very affectionate, she loves a tummy tickle out on her walks. She is very inquisitive and interested in everything out on her walks, she is still very nervous and will flinch and carry her tail between her legs if you move to quickly.
With time patience and lots of reassurance Rita will make a fantastic addition to any home. She seems to be ok with other dogs and older children. As we are unsure what she must have gone through in her previous home any new owner must be prepared to give Rita time and patience to settle in and also training classes would help her greatly with her confidence. Rita has come such along way in the short time she has been in our care, can you give her the forever home she really does deserve?
