Apply online to adopt Freddie

My name is Freddie, I’m a 6yr old Akita x, I was born at bleakholt, but sadly I was returned recently due to me developing separation anxiety during lockdown.
I am wary of new people but with the correct introduction and some tasty treats I will soon be your friend, I’m ok around calm dogs however over excitable and loud dogs scare me and I will bark at them, so we are looking for a pet free, adult only home for me.
I am not keen on the vet, so I do need to be muzzled, if you think you could be my new forever home please fill in the on-line application form.

Apply online to adopt Marlie

Gorgeous five year old Shar Pei cross Marlie is looking for a very special home to call his own. He is very typical of the breed in that he can be wary of strangers but is very loyal and devoted to those he knows. Marlie is looking for a quiet home without many visitors where he can feel safe and relaxed. He has had some behavioural training and has done so well. If you give Marlie the time to get to get to know you and show trust you will be rewarded with a loving, intelligent and faithful friend. Marlie would be suited to either a single person or couple but a home without children is a must. He does also need a pet free home. He does need someone willing to come up on several occasions to meet him and initial meets would just be walks to begin with and not hands on initially. Marlie really does have the potential to be the most amazing companion. We just need that special home willing to take things slow. Marlie is not suitable for a first time dog owner.

• Breed: Bulldog (American)
• Sex: Male
• Age: 4 years 3 months

This young man is Polar – he is an American Bulldog cross, we think he is around 4yrs old. He arrived at Bleakholt as a stray so we don’t have any background information on him. With this in mind we are looking for a home with teenagers (15yrs+). He seems good with quiet dogs on walks but we feel he would be better as the only pet in the home. Polar is loving and likes to be with you – ideally we’d like a family home where there is someone around most of the time for him. He can pull on the lead but with time and training this can be corrected. Polar is very interested in what’s going on around him, so he needs someone experienced with strong breeds as occasionally he will lunge to go in a different direction. Again, with training he is improving. Polar has got some skin issues that will need regular treatment. If you think Polar could be the boy for you please fill in the on-line application form, we look at all the forms but will only get in touch if we feel you could be the right home.

Pumpkin needs some training, basic manners, which will need to be carried on in his new home, he will jump up at people, and he does pull on the lead, but with some time, effort and patience Pumpkin will be an amazing family member.

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 is 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, as he can be timid of new things and does get mouthy at times. 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. He is undergoing a training program to help him overcome his problems and this training will need to be continued in the home. He has had a recent major operation due to twisted gut so his new owners will need to be aware of this as he has to be kept on a specific diet to try and prevent this from happening again. 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.
