After being seen on our website, Felix has found his very own family to live with forever.

Felix is a lovely, affectionate and loyal dog and very active. He will need an experienced, committed dog owner as he needs socialising and interaction with new people and dogs.He can be vocal if not in the right environment and can be dominant with other small dogs.  He needs to be the only dog while ongoing behavioural work is done.

Mabel is intelligent and friendly, affectionate and playful and will be quite an active little girl.

`Tosun came in with Tic Tac who has already been adopted so he is feeling a bit lonely at present.  He is very people oriented and loves attention.

He was neglected previously and must have ongoing grooming.  When he came into the shelter his hair was so matted it was unbelievable. 

Any new owner must be prepared to groom and care for Tosun appropriately.

Tosun is a sweet little boy and you would be rewarded with lots of fun and games and a very loyal and loving dog.

Max can be a bit timid on first meeting and may take time to get to know you. He can be easily frightened with handling  and will need a patient adult household and someone to spend time making him feel secure.

Otherwise he is very active and enjoys a brisk walk.  He will need obedience training once you have gained his confidence.

Secure 5ft min fencing needed as with most dogs of his breed

As he is unsure of canine friends at present he would be best as the only dog in household

Max would benefit from a large living area with lots of activity and stimulation.

Kelpie X Rotti

As anyone knows kelpies are an active breed and so is Izzy - but they are also an intelligent breed.  Izzy has lots of energy and is friendly, sweet and playful - what more could anyone ask for?

Izzy is not only very friendly with people but also other dogs.  She is only young and will need ongoing obedience training but you will be rewarded with a loyal and loving companion.

She will need good daily walks, and a home with good high fencing and someone who can spend some time with her. She will not be happy just left in a yard all day by herself - who would be?

 Izzy is ideal for an active person who likes to walk daily.

She is very gentle and well behaved and would be an ideal lap dog and a quiet, friendly companion.

Young children might be too busy for her to deal with so a family with older children or an adult household would be ideal.  It would also be good if she had someone at home with her most of the time.

These two delightful beagles came in together and have not been claimed by their owners.  They are two sweet little boys who clearly get on well together and it would be great if someone would like to adopt both dogs. 

The advantage of two dogs is that they keep each other company during the day and provide double enjoyment when the owners are at home.

Beagles are good escape artists so need solid fencing.  However they also make wonderful family pets.

He may not have been here long but Duke is only a puppy and needs to be with a family instead of a pound cage.  As he will be a large dog when fully grown people often overlook him but he is such a lovable and friendly little boy.  He is  active and playful but will need puppy training as all pups do.

Any training work put in by owners now will be rewarded threefold when he is fully grown, but at the moment he is just a big baby.  Duke would make a great family pet for adult homes or those with teenagers. 

Come and meet Duke and look into those adorable eyes - you won't be able to resist!
