Apply online to adopt Cooper

This big baby is Cooper, he is an eighteen month old cross breed, we think he might be Great Dane x Mastiff but we aren’t sure as he came to us as a stray, so we don’t have any history on him. We know he can be nervous when he first meets you so we are looking for an experienced home who has owned large breed dogs. Cooper would need lots of introductions to be confident with new people. Cooper currently weighs a whopping 60kg so needs a very strong owner as he is very powerful on lead when he is excited. Cooper is looking for an adult only home and experience is a must as well as a large garden. Cooper will need some training, but he is willing to learn, he is generally good with other dogs but could not live with any small breeds, or older dogs due to his boisterousness. If you think you could offer him his forever home please speak to the dog staff about placing an expression of interest on Cooper. He is not suitable for a first time dog owner.

Apply online to adopt Baloo

This big lad is Baloo, a male Akita that we think is around 2 years old, as he came to us as a stray we have no history on him. Baloo can be timid until he gets to know you then he is very confident and can be mouthy. We are looking for a home with people who have Akita experience as he is typical of this breed. As we have no history on Baloo we are looking for an adult only home due to his over confidence once he knows you. Baloo isn’t great with other dogs so needs a pet free home. He is very strong and does pull on the lead, so some basic training is needed, we aren’t sure if Baloo has ever lived in a home or if he was an outside dog, so he may take some time to settle into a home environment. If you think Baloo is the dog for you please get in touch or fill out an application for him. Baloo is not suitable for a first time dog owner.

Bronson is a 3 year old staffy, very sweet but shy and timid until he knows you. Bronson came to us after a change in the families circumstances, resulting in him being left alone in a property. Bronson is looking for a Staffie experienced home who have time and patience to continue his training. Bronson is fearful of travelling and is very reluctant to get into vehicles, so lots of short positive journeys will be required. He was homed but sadly returned as he was reacting to things he was scared of such as things in the park or dogs barking at him resulting in him biting the lead severley. He needs a very quiet home and very quiet settling in period where he can get used to a routine and then start exploring further once settled. He is a very loving and loyal dog but hasn’t had much experience in the big wide world and finds it all a bit scary. He is pretty strong on lead too and a large Staffy size so someone who can manage him on lead would be needed. Bronson is not suitable to be homed with children and would need a pet free home.
