Cooper
Cooper is a 5 year old Labrador who has come into our care from a home who has reluctantly decided they couldn’t continue to give Cooper the life he deserves due to changes in their circumstances.
He is a fit and healthy neutered boy who enjoys his walks but is not keen on the kennel environment he find himself in. We are looking for a dog experienced home for this boy who can help him overcome his nervousness towards strangers and his reported resource guarding. Unfortunately Cooper will show negative behaviour when strangers approach and talk to him until he realises there’s nothing to be fearful of but with him being a Labrador, you always have the advantage that the first thing on his mind is food, so this is a major benefit to help in his future training and your bonding time.
We can talk to you in more detail about this but due to these issues he currently has we can only re home Cooper in an adult only home. Cooper has not lived with cats.
He’s good with dogs we’ve seen him meet and happy to play but can be a bit boisterous at times. Basically Cooper has a nice character and just needs some training to support what he already has and he needs an owner he can bond with and give him all the guidance he needs to be a well balanced, happy dog. If you are interested in Cooper please fill in our online enquiry form as the first step. Thank you www.dunroamin-k9rescue.org.uk

Gara
Gara is a fit and healthy 3 year old cross breed who’s full of energy. She’s a lovely friendly girl who has come into our care and is looking for an active home to share her love in. We don’t have much history on Gara, so starting from what we find, she loves human contact and is fun to walk on an extender lead. She’s fairly obedient but is responsive to other dogs, in a barking way, however she’s more responsive to me when I guide her away from that negative behaviour. At this point Gara would be happier as an only dog in the home and we suspect she would not be able to tolerate living with a cat. It’s hard to judge Gara’s size from the photo’s of her so we’ve measured her and she is roughly 50cm tall and 50cm long from her neck so she’s fairly small. We all like Gara very much and think she will make a great family pet in a home that has time to exercise her well and not give her too much alone time. If you are interested in Gara please fill in our enquiry form as the first step.
Cissie
Meet Cissie. She is a 7 year old Aylestone Bulldog. She has recently arrived in our care after being found as a stray and not being reclaimed. Unfortunately it seems Cissie has been ill treated in the past and is rather nervous of people she doesn’t know and sadly flinches when initially touched. I’ve taken her out walking which she loves and she seems fit and healthy and just like we are getting to know her, she is also getting to know us and feeling more comfortable. Obviously the kennel life is stressful for her so we are looking for adult only loving home who has the time and patience to show this girl love and give her time with lots of tender loving care. Cissie would be better as an only dog and we do not know whether she is comfortable with cats. If you think you could support, guide and love Cissie into a happy dog please fill in our enquiry form as the first step.
Shrimp
Meet the lovely Shrimp. He is a 7 year old Whippet/Lab cross and has been in our care for some time now living in a foster home with five other dogs. The reason he has been in our care a while is basically because he has a heart murmur and a skin allergy. We feel it only fair that we had fully assessed Shrimp’s health over time before putting him up for adoption, so we have. Shrimp’s heart murmur and skin issue has been checked by vets and we are at a point where we are very clear on his conditions and how to manage them effectively. At this point we need to mention there will be an ongoing medication cost but luckily it is very minimal as he only needs piriton tablets when his skin flares up and currently no medication for his heart murmur because he was born with it and it is not having any detrimental effects.
Back Shrimp himself, he’s a lovely friendly boy who gets on great with other dogs and could live with another friendly dog or as an only dog as long as he's not left too long. He loves going out for long walks and is fine off the lead but he has got some whippet prey drive in him so off lead would have to be in suitable areas or you could lose him for a while. He’s a great character and really loves the comforts in life and he makes a lovely family pet. If you would like more information or would like to meet Shrimp please fill in our enquiry form as a first step.

Ruben
Lucy
Unfortunately for Lucy she finds herself back in kennels, 6 years after she found her home. This makes her 9 now and grey around her sweet face. She is a lovely people friendly Staffie. Lucy is obviously quite shocked at the moment with the massive change of life and she would love someone to consider her when looking for a new dog in their life. Lucy walks fine on the lead and will wait when asked, sit and give paw. She hasn't been tested with other dogs nose to nose but when she see's them out while on a walk there are no issues. She is a sweet staffie so please contact us if you would like more info. or to meet her.
