Little Babybell is definitely ready and raring to get herself a new home... she can't wait to get out of kennels and start living her new life!
Babybell (BB) came into us as she found herself in a stray pound with her days numbered, we offered her a place with us and we think she is very grateful at being given a second chance 🙂
Typical of a Patterdale BB is full of energy, enthusiasm and excitement, she will certainly need an active home as those little legs could walk and run all day long - so if your after a dinky hiking partner, sign her up!
Although BB goes out with some of our volunteer walkers (who all love her!) she isn't the best at walking to heel, with her small stature she isn't one to pull your arm off but there is definitely room for improvement so training classes to get on top of her pulling will certainly be of benefit, not to mention sorting those basic commands (or lack of at the moment!).
BB is super friendly with everyone, she will happily say hello and have a fuss from anyone she meets though if there is walking, exploring and sniffing to be done she is more interested in that than sitting on your lap for cuddles.
Since arriving with us she hasn't been interested or bothered by other dogs, though she has been known to try and chase the odd bird so maybe no small furries for her! At the moment she is going through a phantom pregnancy as such she will be best placed as an only dog.
BB has been a treasure from day one, she travelled well to the vet and was good as gold waiting to be seen (though she was very interested and excited to see a chicken who was also waiting for the vet!) and she had top marks for her behaviour whilst being examined and for her injections - she will make someone an ace dog!
Meet Evelin, who's name carries meanings of 'desired' and 'beautiful', we can say she is an utter name sake as she has the most beautiful nature!
Evelin has come into us from another charity with her friend Ellie (who is also up for rehoming) and since day one she has been the most gentle soul, albeit she is on the shy side but her confidence is growing and so is her personality.
On the lead she walks really well, never pulling or straying too far from your side.
She gets on well with other dogs, not really bothering too much about them. She could live with another dog provided they have as equally relaxed temperament and don't overwhelm her.
As you can imagine a shy little girl like Evelin isn't enjoying the noise and stresses of kennels, she hates going back in, bless her 🙁
She hasn't yet found her love of toys or zoomies as yet but we are sure with a loving home this will come.
Ideally Evelin will blossom in a quieter home, in that we mean no younger children inadvertently banging about which may give her a fright.
We really don't have a bad word to say about her and we will be sad to see her go but we can't wait to find her the most paw-fect home!! 😀
Meet the gorgeous Billie. This sweet little pup is a 6 month old medium crossbreed and has come into us from another rescue with her brother Amar so is looking for her first forever home.
Billie is still a little nervous of the big wide world but is getting braver everyday. She has come on in leaps and bounds since she's been with us and is now enjoying going out for walks and being in the playpen. She still gets a little uncertain with loud or unusual noises bless her. She will need a patient and loving home to help her learn that the world is a wonderful place. Billie gets on well with other dogs and could live with one if the temperaments suit and we're sure it would also help with her confidence.
Billie will need the full works from house training upwards but if you have the time and love to give this special girl she will make a super lifelong friend.
Meet our little dude Billy who has come into us from another rescue with his sister Bonnie (who is also up for rehoming), neither of them have any history but we're hoping to rewrite their future!!
Billy is a super friendly boy who loves his fuss and cuddles, he can be a bit timid at times especially in new situations or with unfamiliar sounds but he is very inquisitive and it doesn't take long for him to come round, taking his confidence from his handler - saying that he can also be a cheeky monkey at times!
On the lead he is making progress everyday but being a baby he is still learning and does still get excited, jumping up and circling round your feet but with continued work in his new home we are sure that he will nail walking to heel like a good boy.
We are looking for a home to take him along to training classes as he doesn't know any of his basic commands but he does have a good recall and will bring toys back to you to throw for him - he's a clever one who just needs a bit of direction.
Billy is good with other dogs he's just very lively so he could live with another dog provided they could keep up with his antics equally he would be just fine as an only dog.
Overall Billy is just a young dog who needs a family to teach him all that he needs to know to grow up to be a well rounded adult, he has a beautiful nature and will make a fab family dog.
Our gorgeous boy, 1-2 year old RIPLEY has breezed through his assessment and ready to start a new life with forever family
He loves his fusses and toys, especially rope ones as he likes to have a game of tuggie. Still acts like a puppy in some ways and every day is a new adventure - he is just a delight. Ripley was pretty strong on the lead to begin with but with the help of a headcollar he so much better, so with continued training he will be a superstar. He has made friends with all the dogs here and today he made friends with Elsa but in all honesty he was more interested in having his tummy rubbed and rolling in the grass

Meet the pocket rocket that is Milo!!! Milo has come into us from a private home as his owner was working long hours and felt he deserved a home where he isn't left on his own all day so we have promised to do just that!
As you'd guessed with a face as happy as his, he is a super friendly boy who loves everyone, he is always excited to see you and keen for his walks!
On the lead he does pull, we have started working with him but this will need to be continued in his new home. We are looking for an active home as he has lots of energy and just loves being out and about on his walks.
The playpen is his favourite place, he loves doing zoomies as fast as he can, he loves chasing toys (although not quite as good bringing them back!) and he absolutely loves the paddling pool, he is definitely a water baby so his new owner would need a garden and ideally a little paddling pool just for Milo!
Since coming into us Milo has made lots of dog friends from Hugo the Pug to Rusty the Lurcher, so he is a social butterfly who doesn't mind the size or type of dog he's friends with. His previous owner did say that he can bark at other dogs whilst on the lead but fine to run free with them off lead, we haven't had any barking here but that's not to say he might try in his new home.
The only negative we can muster for Milo is that he can mouthe when excited, moreso when you enter his kennel he will try and mouthe your hands but as soon as his lead is clipped up he stops and off on his walk he goes like a good boy.
As mentioned above the reason he has come into us as he is being left long hours, he is ok to be left and has no separation anxiety but we are looking for a home where he isn't left too long or too frequent.
Meet our gorgeous Lurcher Rusty who has come into us through no real fault of his own, unfortunately his owner was elderly and he as an excitable pup was too much for them so we stepped in to help find him a more suited home.
As you can imagine he is full of energy and loves to be out and about exploring but his most favourite thing is 100mph zoomies in the playpen, he also loves to play with toys and does actually bring them back for you to throw again for him so we do feel he will need a good size garden in his new home to continue his love of zoomies!
On the lead he can and does walk well with correct instructions, he does occasionally get the wind up his tail and spring off like a coil (especially if there is any birds or alike on the horizon that are chase-worthy!) but it doesn't take much to get him back by your side though we do know with inexperienced handlers he will push boundaries and try and pull all over the shop. Walking on a head collar has really improved his walking so far.
We have found Rusty to be good with other dogs, he just wants to play and is all legs in doing so! Even though he has been the friendliest boy ever meeting any dog that passes by he may well be best in a home as an only dog purely as he doesn't know when enough is enough, even when the other dog has had enough playing and wants a rest Rusty is quite persistent at wanting to continue playing and zoomies.
Rusty is very affectionate, he does the typical Lurcher lean and loves all the fuss he can get.
We are looking for an active home for this boy and one where he can continue his training ideally to attend some classes, he is doing super well with all of his basics but he is a bright boy we know could excel with the right home.
Rusty is a super friendly boy who loves everyone and will make an amazing addition to a family!
