Tommy - 1-2 year old male Cross-Breed

July 3rd, 2008

Tommy (ref 109d) is a 1-2 year old, male, very smart-looking and enthusiastic tri-colour male cross-breed. He was brought to Derby RSPCA Centre after he was found unwanted and abandoned. In spite of having been jettisoned by his last owner, Tommy is a very cheerful, positive and upbeat dog who is extremely interested in the world around him and very keen to make friends.

He already knows at least 3 commands and, bearing in mind that he’s still a young dog, he could probably learn quite a few more if his new owner took the time to train him. He would probably see training as an enjoyable game.

He would be suitable for active new owners who would make sure he got plenty of walks, exercise, fun and games in the fresh air. He is a lively young lad who very much wants to be up and doing, so being shut up in a kennel is no fun at all for him. Tommy would fit comfortably into a household where any children were aged 10+, kind to animals and sensible.

He appears to get along fine with other dogs and seems at present to ignore cats rather than wanting to chase them. He absolutely loves to play, both with toys and with people, and thoroughly enjoys a game of tug. Tommy is a wonderfully friendly, bright-eyed and playful boy who will make a lovely family dog and a terrific playmate. His cheerfulness and love of life are completely unstoppable.
