Barney is a beautiful young Bichon who is looking for a very special, patient home where he can learn that the world is a safe and kind place. He is around 7 months old

Barney is nervous of new people and unfamiliar environments. He has had very little socialisation so far, and when he feels overwhelmed or frightened he will often freeze and lie flat on the floor. Despite this, Barney really does want to be friends – his fear just gets in the way right now. With time, understanding, and gentle encouragement, he has the potential to blossom.

At home, Barney does get excited to see his people and will jump on his back legs with excitement. He is currently scared of being touched but will allow it, but food is a big motivator for him and will be a great tool in building trust and confidence. Deep down he loves the fuss and he has come out of his shell and has a cheeky side to him. He will need slow, positive lead training, as the outside world is currently very daunting for him.

Barney is fine with other dogs, another confident dog may do him the world of good. He loves his food and treaties. Grooming is essential for him

Barney is not a “ready-made” dog, but for the right person, helping him come out of his shell will be incredibly rewarding. If you can offer him the time, patience, and gentle love he needs, Barney could become a wonderful companion.

A very sweet boy with a cheeky side ready and waiting to come out for the right patient home

Bruno is a lovely 10-year-old Bichon Frise with a big personality and lots of love to give. He absolutely adores being with people and is happiest when he’s part of the action. He’s a real little companion dog who thrives on human company.

Bruno loves his food and gets very excited at mealtimes – he can be a bit snatchy, though it’s worth noting he is currently very underweight and will need someone committed to helping him regain condition in a safe, steady way.

Despite his age, Bruno still has plenty of energy and really enjoys his walks. He would suit a home that can give him regular outings and gentle exercise. Grooming is essential for Bruno, as with all Bichons, so his new family must be prepared for regular brushing and professional grooming.

Bruno is looking for a calm, loving retirement home where he can be cherished, but don’t be fooled by the word “retirement” – he’s still full of life and character. He does like to bark, and his bark amusingly sounds a bit like a seal, which only adds to his charm!

If you’re looking for a sweet, people-loving little dog to share your life with and can offer patience, care, and lots of affection, Bruno could be the perfect companion.

Bruno is fine with other dogs and children 8+

Sasha is a stunning 2-year-old German Shepherd x Akita with a heart full of love to give. She is a fantastic dog who thrives on being outdoors and absolutely loves going on adventures. Whether it’s long walks, exploring new places, or simply enjoying fresh air, Sasha is happiest when she’s out and about. She also loves to just chill at home

She can be a little aloof when she first meets new people, which is very typical of her breed mix, but once she gets to know you, her true personality shines through. Sasha is extremely playful, fun-loving, and full of character, and she builds strong bonds with the people she trusts.

Sasha would be best suited to a home with children aged 10+, she seems to be fine with other dogs and wants to play.

She is a truly beautiful girl inside and out, and there is honestly nothing bad to say about her. Sasha is looking for a loving home that will give her the time and affection she deserves. In return, she will offer loyalty, companionship, and endless love.

She loves to fling her toys around in the air and is so funny 😂 she is a fantastic dog to be around

Meet Patsy, a beautiful Cocker Spaniel with the sweetest, most soulful eyes that melt hearts instantly. She is around 4 years old

Patsy can be a little reserved and shy at first, but once she feels safe, her true nature shines through. She is incredibly cuddly, clingy, and affectionate—a real velcro dog who loves nothing more than being close to her person and soaking up cuddles. Given time and patience, she will gently come out of her shell and reward you with deep loyalty and love.

Having previously been a breeding dog, Patsy is still learning what life in a home is all about. She will need an understanding home to help her adjust, but she is very clean in her kennel, which is a great foundation for home life.

✨ Patsy at a glance:
• Shy but loving and affectionate
• Extremely cuddly and loyal
• Loves her food 🍽️
• Excellent in the car 🚗
• Clean and well-mannered
• Good with other dogs, though she does like to be the centre of attention (a bit of a jealous bum!)
• Suitable for children aged 8+

Patsy would thrive in a calm, patient home where she can build confidence at her own pace and enjoy being someone’s cherished companion. If you’re looking for a gentle, loving dog who will bond deeply with you, Patsy could be the perfect match.

💗 One look into her eyes and you’ll understand just how special she is.
