Hi there, the staff here call me "Toffee"
I am a lovely girl looking for my forever home.
I can be a bit stubborn at times so will need to continue
my obedience training and will need an owner who will be firm
and consistent with me and set rules and boundaries from day
one.
Once I have bonded with my new owner I will make a loyal
companion.

Hi there, the staff here call me “Joe”
I am a lovely we boy, who can be a bit stubborn and I also
like to think I’m in charge. So I am in need of an owner
who is going to take charge of me and who is going to set
me firm rules and boundaries.
I can go home to dog savvy teenagers, but unfortunately I
am not suited with cats and other small animals. I require
secure fencing as I just love to explore my environment.
It may take me a while to settle into a new home, but with
some time and love will make a great companion.

Hi there, the staff here call me “Maxwell”
I am a really sweet young lad who is waiting for my new best
friend to come and take me home!
I am very responsive but I will need someone firm to give
me consistent rules and boundaries and continue with my obedience
training. I also have lots of energy to burn so will need
someone who can give me plenty of exercise and things to keep
me busy everyday.
So if I sound like the one you’ve been looking for
then please ask to meet me today!

Hi there, the staff here call me “Emma”
I am a lovely, gentle older girl who is looking forever a
quite home to enjoy the rest of my days. I can lack a bit
of confidence when I first meet you but with proper training
and encouragement I'll soon bond with my new family.
I don’t do a lot of running around anymore, but I still
love my walks and cuddles. I can not go home to children as
they will frighten me, but I can go home to other animals
big and small.

Hi there, the staff here call me "Brindy"
I am a lovely girl who is good with other dogs and people
but can be quite shy so a calm environment with older children
would suit me best.
I am big boned, daily exercise is a must for me, so if you
lead an active lifestyle that would be ideal-as I need to
watch my figure.
I can be very playful and cheeky and love a good wrestle
but I also enjoy quiet me time. I would not be suitable with
cats as I just cant seem to resist the chase.

Hi there, the staff here call me "Charlie"
I am a lovely boy who is after an experienced owner with
training knowledge and who will set me firm rules and boundaries.
I can get scared and startled quite easily so a calm, quiet
home would suit me best.
I can go home to dog savvy older kids and I can go home to
other animals, as long as we have a proper introduction. I
may take a while to come out of my shell, but once I have
bonded with you I will make a great companion. I love too
play and go for walks, as well as curling up on the couch
with you at night.

Hi there, the staff here call me "Pharaoh"
I am a lovely wee boy who is after an experienced owner
with training knowledge and who will set me firm rules and
boundaries. I would also like an owner who is home part time
during the day as I just love company.
I can not go home to cats as the thrill to chase is just
too much. I can go home to bitches and younger male dogs,
but large entire males scare me. I am best suited as an indoor
dog that is part of the family, so if you are looking for
an outside dog please don’t pick me.
I love nothing more than cuddling up with you on the couch
or just relaxing on the floor by your feet.

Hi there, the staff here call me "Stilts"
I have just finished my racing career and am looking for
a home to spend my retirement. I am not the most playful girl,
but I am very affectionate and enjoy a good cuddle. I require
daily exercise and mental stimulation. I am after a calm confident
owner, who doesn’t have a hectic household or lifestyle.
As I am an ex-racer I can not go home to small fluffy animals
of any kind (dogs included). I can live with calm dog savvy
children of any age. If you are looking for outside dog only
please don’t pick me, as I will only cope if I am part
of the family.

Hi there, the staff here call me "Evie"
I’m a VERY sweet and loving girl looking for a new
‘forever’ home. I’d like my new owner to
be home with me full-time as I love company and will need
to be taught that it’s ok to be left alone.
I enjoy plenty of exercise and am looking forward to continuing
with my obedience training. I’ll do well with daily
mental and physical exercise to keep me busy.
I’m still only a big baby, but with plenty of love
and attention will grow into an awesome family pet.

Hi there, the staff here call me "Jill"
I am a lovely girl who has retired from my racing career
and am now looking for a nice home to spend the rest of my
days in. I am after an experienced owner to set me some firm
rules and boundaries. Also one that will help me adjust to
home life rather than being a working dog.
I can not go home to small fluffy animals, little dogs included
as the thrill to chase is just too much. I require high secure
fencing as I just love to explore. I will make a very loving
and loyal companion once I have bonded and settled in to my
new home.
