My boy Winston's first visit to Barry Island 😍 He LOVED it!

I've introduced him on my personal page but realised I havent done introductions here!

Big man arrived two weeks ago after a long trek from Cyprus. He'd ended up as a stray in a municipal pound and was then taken in by a fantastic charity over there that helps with the 10s of thousands of stray and abandoned dogs on the island. He was fostered with them for 4 months before I spotted his post on their Facebook group and 6 weeks after that, he was Barrybados bound!

Winston is settling in extremely well so far. We suspect he hadn't lived in a house as part of a family before he was rescued, he's around 2 years old but EVERYTHING is new to him. It's like having an enthusiastic, inquisitive 30kg puppy. My cats (Luna, Stan and Ollie) have done the cat equivalent of a shrug - they aren't bothered by the new addition, he just needs a bit of time to learn to be calm around them.

He had a week at home decompressing after his journey and getting used to me and his new surroundings. This week he's joined me on a couple of group walks and he's fitted straight in. He loves other dogs and humans and is quickly learning his boundaries.

Here's to lots of adventures Winston!

NEWS coming soon 🐕😬🥳

Friends, help me out with a like and share 😊😊

I think I'm ready to add to my brood 🤰

Looking for a dog to come join me, Luna, Stan & Ollie and of course to hopefully join in with some new friends on walks and adventures. I'm actively looking, but in absolutely no rush at all, it'll be a case of the right fit at the right time.

I don't think I'm cut out for puppy hood, so ideally a rescue or rehome up to the age of around 3. Medium sized - I'd love to consider another Labrador, but that's not set in stone. Has to be great with other dogs and humans and potential with cats (my clan are dog savvy, so happy to put the work in).

I'm keeping an eye on all the usual places, but if you happen to come across any dogs you think I might be a suitable candidate for, please let me
know!!
