Poppy arrived at the RSPCA as she was too lively and playful for the older dog in her previous home. She is a very sweet, friendly pup who has a lot of energy. Poppy knows sit, walks well on a harness and has already started to learn to be clean in the house. She will need some further training and needs to continue socialising in different places with other people and animals so she grows up into a confident , happy dog. Poppy has been very good with other dogs at the shelter and does like to play with them so any existing dog in her new home will need to be of a similar energy level. Poppy will make a great edition to a family with the time to put into her training and socialising. She will need her own garden and a home where she will not be left for too long on her own. She could live with older children.placeholder image

When Ted arrived he was a very shy boy and took a few days to settle with the team at the RSPCA. He is now much happier and loves fuss and attention. He can still be a little worried by new people, especially men, but does really well after a nice introduction. Ted is housetrained and will sit when asked. He enjoys his walks and is good on the lead. Ted has been very good with other dogs and enjoys their company on walks. He has lived with a cat in his previous home so may be OK with a dog savvy cat. Ted is looking for an experienced owner who is used to dogs who are a little worried by new experiences. He could live with older children who have lived with dogs before and know how to behave around them when they are shy. Ted will need regular grooming to keep his coat in good condition and may require trips to a dog groomer.

Marlin is a friendly, lively, sometimes over-excitable boy who enjoys fuss and attention. He loves to play with toys and is learning to play fetch nicely with a ball. He will need some training, especially around walking calmly and quietly on a lead and may not be fully house-trained initially but should learn quickly. Marlin is sociable with other dogs and could live with a resident female dog in his new home but would not want to live with another male. He would prefer a home without cats or small animals. Marlin is looking for a very active home and could possibly live with older children who are used to bouncy dogs. He is a new arrival who is still being assessed.

When Milo arrived at the shelter he was extremely nervous and took a while to start trusting everyone. Now, with some extra TLC, he has become a very happy, cheeky boy! Milo loves his walks and enjoys a good explore and snuffle in the grass. He has started to play with toys particularly soft squeaky ones. Milo LOVES other dogs and will squeal with excitement when he sees his buddies! He would ideally like to live with another dog or have plenty of dogs in the family to socialise with. He loves his food and treats which really helps people gain his trust. Milo will need some basic training and will take time to settle into a new home. He would be best living in a quiet suburban or rural area and will need an adult only home. Milo will require any potential adopters to visit him several times at the shelter before taking him home, so he can create a bond and feel secure with his new family.

7. Milo - two year old Terrier cross

Melody is a very sweet girl who enjoys fuss and attention and loves rolling around on the grass for a belly rub. She enjoys her walks and is a typical beagle with her nose to the ground unless you stop and sit still for a cuddle! Melody will need some basic training, including house training. She loves her treats so this will be a good way to teach her. Melody is sociable with other dogs but can sometimes be a little shy until she knows them. She will be looking for an active owner who has experience with similar breeds. Melody is a new arrival who is still being assessed.
