🐾 Toby is a really lovely, sweet boy who has been with us for a few months now. He's a Patterdale Terrier who we believe is around 18 months old.

🌳 He is an inquisitive little dog who enjoys exploring his surroundings using his nose.

🖤 Toby has an affectionate nature towards people he meets.

🎓 What can we say - he has a zest for life, is highly intelligent, energetic and really responsive to training.

🎾 We are using reward based training which is great for him as he works well for food, toys (especially squeaky!), praise and environment.

🦮 Since his arrival, we have worked hard on his reactivity to dogs and he is now much improved (please see video in comments) but will need ongoing training in this area.

🏃 Toby would benefit from an active home with a secure garden.

🐶 Could possibly live with a calm dog after meet and greets.

🚸 We would consider a home with children 12+.

🐕‍🦺 Previous terrier experience would be an advantage and commitment to ongoing training. Toby would make a great companion who deserves a chance to find his forever home.

Unfortunately, due to no fault of his own (illness in the family), Ziggy is back in our care 🐾

Ziggy originally found himself in our care through no fault of his own and his previous family were heartbroken to be faced with this situation, but wanted to do the best for him to ensure he receives the time and love he deserves 💖

🐶 Ziggy loves human attention and cuddles from all he’s met
🥎 Enjoys playing with toys
🌳Likes going for walks and would thrive from plenty of enrichment
💦 Has a love of water in paddling pools in the summer
🚸 He is suitable to live with dog savvy children 12yrs+, as he can be strong and boisterous
🕘 Would benefit from someone home most of the time
🐈 Cannot live with cats
🐾 He is strong on the lead, so will need further training to work on this and also his general obedience

Rehoming criteria grade: A

If you have the time and love to offer Ziggy his forever home, please complete our online Adoption Application form via our website - link in bio (www.pawsawhileshelter.co.uk). We can then arrange to meet with him.

📍Ziggy is based in Alrewas, Staffordshire 🇬🇧

Teddy’s enjoyed a pamper spa session this weekend 🐶🧼🛁 A soak in the tub, followed by a good natural blow dry in the sun and the all important hair cut 💇 and nails done. He was well behaved today with near enough no grumbling at the clippers. Looking smart again Teddy! 🐾 #pawsawhileshelter #dogrescuestaffordshire #availableforadoption #rescuedogspaday
