Our Dogs Needing Homes
MAGGIE
Maggie is a beautiful (approx)7 year old boxer who's looking for her forever home. She's a sweet and affectionate lady who will make someone a wonderful companion. She was found as a stray so we sadly don't have any history on her, we can only go on her assessment whilst with us.
Maggie is a loyal and loving dog who will follow you around the house in a supervisory role, making sure you're doing things properly. She greets everyone with kisses and a wagging tail, and she loves to be around people. She's a bit of a cuddlebug and has a bed in every room, so she can be close to her favorite humans.
Maggie would thrive in a dog free and pet free home with children over 8 years old. She's not fond of sharing her home with other dogs, especially small ones.
She's a bit of a strong willed lady and can be stubborn on walks, especially if she sees food.
Maggie has a few quirks that make her all the more lovable. She's a bit of a thief and loves to collect items like remotes, phones, and her foster mums knitting and then proudly display them in the garden. She's also a bit of a foodie and loves sardines, which can encourage her to eat when she's feeling fussy.
Maggie would be perfect for a family who can provide a dog free and pet free home, has children over 8 years old, ideally a boxer lover and someone who knows the breed. As well as someone who can provide regular exercise and attention as she loves to cuddle.
Maggie is in a foster home in Liverpool. If you can offer her a forever home, please complete an application after reading our rehoming policies.
BENNY
Benny is once again in search of a new home. He originally came to us as a tiny puppy at just 8 weeks old and was adopted quickly, he is now approaching his third birthday.
Unfortunately, Benny has developed fears and anxiety as he has matured and his current owners feel they are unable to provide the support he needs.
Initially, we were told that he is a husky cross German shepherd, though we suspect there might be some lurcher in him as well.
He thrives in a serene, chilled and quiet environment, without children or other pets. He gets worried by loud heavy traffic, kids playing in the street, police sirens etc will cause him to panic and want to go straight back home and will refuse to walk down the street.
With access to open spaces and a tranquil home, Benny has the potential to flourish. He enjoys being walked on a long lead in open areas, which gives him a sense of security and freedom, rather than shorter leads used in busy streets. Ideally he would be driven to a park or beach for walks.
Benny was attacked by another dog so he is now scared of them. He is not aggressive at all, he is more of a scaredy cat who would rather run home than get into confrontation with one, he is hit and miss and will either growl at them to go away or if he feels safe around them he will play bow.
Benny is a dream in the car, he is calm and quiet during both short and long trips.
While he may be initially shy around new people, he quickly warms up once he’s had a chance to sniff and explore. He is more weary of unknown people coming up to him in the street, but he easily bonds with friends and family inside the home.
He loves to engage in play and often brings you a toy from his basket. Each morning, he greets you with his favorite rope for a game of tug pf war or fetch. After a good walk, he enjoys settling down for a peaceful nap.
He is house trained and can be left alone for a few hours without any issues.
He adores the beach and loves to dig in the sand to his heart's content.
He enjoys exploratory sniffy walks and loves to run free, although he would also benefit from some off lead walks in a private secure dog field where he can play safely.
If you think you have the right home to offer Benny. Please complete an online application after reading our rehoming policies
