JAKE
Is a handsome six year old boy who has just come into DCGR foster care, where he is settling in well with the other five dogs in the house. Jake is vaccinated, neutered, microchipped and house-trained. Jake is a lovely outgoing dog who loves life and everything in it. He thinks he should come first on all occasions and he tests most things to the limit to see what will be allowed, but he accepts 'No' very readily. Jake is a happy confident dog with a lovely personality, he loves people and other dogs, loves travelling in the car and walks well on the lead, except when he sees rabbits, hares etc.... He will be a dog with whom you could have tremendous fun, but he needs a cconfident owner who will be able to control Jake's enthusiasm.

Ben travels well in the car but is quite a nervous dog especially around people, however, being amongst other Greyhounds gives him extra courage. He loves cuddling up to them and tries to make them play with him.

Sandy.jpg

SANDY
Sandy is a lovely fawn ex-racing Greyhound born on the 18th March 2003. He weighs 81lbs (36.8k), is neutered, inoculated, microchipped and being fostered with three other Greyhounds. Sandy is a very friendly, playful and affectionate boy who has been with his fosterers since early November. In that time he’s learnt to trust them and come on in leaps and bounds. He loves traveling in the car, lets you know when someone comes to the door and is quite a strong dog who used to pull on his lead, but this stopped when he was introduced to a harness. Sandy is still wary of strangers but if they ignore him and let him sniff them they soon find him by their side waiting to be stroked and after that they are his best friend. Sandy is slowly coming to terms with the ‘big wide world’ but still feels frightened and insecure at times so the more socialization he gets the better he will be. To the right home Sandy will make a very loyal and loveable companion.

SIMBAedenrescue.jpg
Simba

SIMBA

I’m a loving lurcher and very attractive as well. I walk well on the lead and enjoy my time out. I like to run and play.  I can jump over walls so if you choose to share your home with me a secure garden would suit me best, but I need a home without cats. I will make a loyal and loving pet. I’m also up to date with my vaccinations and am microchipped and neutered. Can you help me find my forever home?

TYKE.jpg

Is there space in your heart for this courageous little chap?
