RUBY History: I work full time and am really struggling to keep up with the exercise and attention that Ruby needs. Description: Ruby is a medium-sized dog. She is cream with some flecks of apricot. She has long legs and is very fast. I have tried her with agility and she loved it and was good at it but sadly I cannot commit to training due to lack of time. We had only joined a beginner class. Ruby loves her ball, playing tuggy, enrichment games, walks and affection.
She is very intelligent, lively, fun and makes us laugh. She is very good with commands and loves learning or doing something new. She is very good in the house, car and the crate. If you were to rehome Ruby, I have no doubt that she would be the best companion. Rehoming Criteria: Ruby is a fearful girl, who can be very nervous with people she doesn’t know, so we’re looking for an experienced and compassionate carer to help soothe her anxieties and encourage her to feel more confident.
She is affectionate towards people she trusts. We’re looking for a quiet, adult only home with no other pets. Where dog can be seen: A neutral place EN8 8EQ (map)

SPICE History: Very sadly I am looking for a new home for my dog Spice. Due to my disability, I’m finding that she’s too full on.
Description: Spice is a beautiful, slender build, small/ medium size black and white girl. She’s full of energy and has done agility previously. She’s had training and knows all the commands. Spice is good with dogs/cats and loves people and children. She’s crate trained but prefers cuddles on sofa. She loves the car and will remain in it until she’s told to come. When it comes to her food, she won’t touch it until she’s told she may have it and then she will eat it.
Rehoming Criteria: I would love Spice to go to someone who can give her time and carry on her agility training. Would prefer one to one as she will give full attention to you. Can be seen at my home.

JACK History: Jack was handed into the centre due to a change in his owners’ circumstances. Description: All energy, all love – Jack’s the full package!
Jack is a high-energy Border Collie who thrives on activity and stimulation. He has previously lived with older children and teenagers and could happily do so again in the right home. Jack has also lived with cats and can be playful indoors, but he may chase outdoors, so any resident cat would need to be confident and dog-savvy. On the lead, Jack can be reactive to other dogs, but he has enjoyed positive off-lead interactions with dogs at the centre. He is housetrained, travels well in the car, and is comfortable being left alone for a few hours. Rehoming Criteria: Jack requires an active, breed-experienced home—ideally with someone who enjoys hiking, agility, or flyball. He can be nervous when meeting new people, particularly men, and will need a calm, patient owner willing to take the time to build his confidence. He could live with older children or teens, a confident, dog-savvy cat, and possibly another friendly dog with careful introductions. A secure garden is essential, as he tends to chase when off-lead and still needs work on his recall.
His new family must be committed to supporting him with his lead reactivity and helping him feel more at ease around strangers.
Jack has so much potential – he just needs the right person to help him shine! Where dog can be seen: Dumfries DG1 4RH (map)

BELLA History: I am posting on behalf of my next door neighbour, Sarah Pearson (with her permission, of course.) We are looking for a home for her dog, Bella. Bella came to Sarah in October from her daughter, Kathryn, and is currently looking for her 5th home through no fault of her own.
Unfortunately, she was not socialised when she was young, spending the first year of her life in two different homes, both of which kept her in a crate, apart from toilet trips to the garden.
Bella was taken on by Kathryn when she was a year old and had been walked regularly, making good progress with her training. However, Kathryn was unfortunately made homeless in October, and the decision was made that she would live with Sarah until a suitable home was found. Bella is still in training, but Sarah is unable to give her the time she really needs due to work commitments. Description: Bella is a medium-sized female, neutered crossbreed, possibly Kelpie x Jack Russell. She is fully housetrained, non-destructive, and doesn't scavenge food or bins. She really is the perfect dog in the house!
Due to her lack of socialisation, while she is a fantastic dog in the house, she doesn't understand anything beyond a house and garden. She chases cats and cars, and barks at anything she doesn't understand.
There's no malice in her and she could live with other dogs. She currently lives with Sarah's cocker spaniel, Bramble, but introductions would need to be done very gradually. She is also very good with Sarah's two young grandsons when they come to stay. Rehoming Criteria: Bella needs an owner who has experience with kelpies, collies, or similar, and someone who is willing to continue to work through her training. She's a lot to take on because she has so much to learn about the outside world, but she has an incredible brain and picks things up very quickly. She would be a great agility prospect, or similar, once she has come to terms with the outside world. Where dog can be seen: Peasedown St. John, Nr. Bath BA2 8JA (map)
