RSPCA Dogs & Puppies For Adoption - Keighley & Craven District
Name: PENNY
Age: 11 YEARS APPROX
Breed: JUG
Details:
We have paid for Penny to be cared for at RSPCA Lancs East on our behalf. Please call 01254231118 to register your interest.
Penny is an older girl who is ready for her retirement home. Despite her age, she has no health issues, a brilliant personality, and needs an owner who can socialise her, take her for walks, and provide her with a warm, comfortable, and loving place to live. Penny walks beautifully on a lead but can be strong if she spots something that she finds interesting. An owner who’s willing to encourage and continue her training would be ideal for her progress and increased confidence. Penny does travel well in a car and happily settles in a car crate. She can be reactive in busy environments and would definitely need a pet-free home. She’s also very independent. In her previous home, she did enjoy sitting and snuggling on the settee with her owner, but whilst Penny loves attention and fuss from her handlers, it’s on her own terms. Due to the nature of kennels, we can’t guarantee her housetraining, but we’ll provide guidance and support if needed. Additionally, any children must be over 15 years old due to her independent temperament. Penny’s adoption fee has been reduced to £100.

Breed: LURCHER

Our wonderful, happy, 1-year-old Lurcher, Onion, is now ready for adoption! This lovely boy is full of beans, loves his zoomies, and adores his squeaky toys. He will be able to live with another dog of a similar nature, dependent on successful meets. Onion was born into RSPCA care, so he has never lived in a home environment...Therefore, a home with another dog may help build his confidence in the home, although this is not compulsory rehoming criteria. He is a very chatty boy and will bark if there is something he wants; he LOVES his training, so he is getting much better with this, although training will need to be continued in the home. He walks nicely on lead in quiet areas but can become nervous or overexcited in other areas, dependent on the scenario, so a home with some experience of sighthound and/or positive reinforcement training would be best for him. He can become excited and reactive when seeing some other dogs; however, this is an intermittent behaviour that he does not always show. Continued training will be needed with this. Onion has shown some nervousness around new people, but generally comes round very quickly. Overall, this boy is looking for a home where he can learn how to be a pet dog. He will require some training once in the home as it will all be novel and new to him. He is a very affectionate boy and deserves nothing more than a loving, active family. Onion shows great potential in all the training we carry out with him. He would be best suited to a home with children of 14+ (he is all legs and can be very 'full on' when he has the zoomies). Onion cannot be rehomed with cats. Could you show him what a loving home is all about?

Meet our beautiful, brindle boy, Broccoli. He is a lovely boy who is FULL of character and personality. He easily becomes very excited about anything fun... Toys, snacks, and his favourite people! He often greets his handlers with a wiggly play bow and lots of kisses. This lovely boy was born into RSPCA care, so he has very little life experience (he is an adult-sized puppy). He often finds novel things either scary or exciting, so work on neutralising these things will need to be done via positive reinforcement. He loves cheese and can show good focus when he knows there's a chance of a cheesy snack; however, he can become frustrated when training sessions are too long. He can become bouncy and vocal when something is too exciting, so a home willing to carry out some training with him will be needed. Broccoli would thrive best with a family who has some experience with sighthounds and/or positive reinforcement training. He is a very bouncy boy, so can be strong on lead at times; however, he can walk nicely when he is focused. Broccoli will be able to live with another dog of a similar size or smaller. He would benefit from a home with a confident dog to show him the ropes; however, this is not compulsory rehoming criteria. Broccoli is a very affectionate dog who craves cuddles and love... He also has a very cheeky side! Broccoli can live with children of 14+, but no cats.
