Are you right for Bandit?
Bandit is an eleven-year-old Pomeranian cross Shih Tzu LOOKING FOR A LOVING HOME TOGETHER WITH PEPPER. Bandit and Pepper could share their home with secondary school aged children. They are looking to be the only dogs in the home and a home without small furries, cats, or livestock. They are both housetrained. They could cope with a reasonably busy home environment and are likely to by shy of new visitors. They will need a home with a garden. They are living off-site in a foster home and here’s what their foster carers says, “A pair of gems! Not only do they look adorable, but they also have hearts of gold. They are completely tuned in to their significant person/people. They attach quickly. They soon know your routine. Your down time is their snooze time.”
Is Bandit right for you?
Bandit and Pepper are a well bonded pair. Bandit is the more confident one of the pair. He wears his heart on his sleave and just wants you to love him and tell him that he is ‘a good boy!’ Bandit, followed by Pepper, is in his element when he is having a fuss and a snuggle on your lap. They love to be close to you. Bandit enjoys a fuss under his chin and behind his ears. Bandit has more dynamic energy and will enjoy a play with his human. Bandit is motivated by treats and is doing well with learning a sit and wait. Out and about they are gaining confidence, they love going out for walks, they prefer shorter walks rather than long hikes. They don’t want a lot from other dogs and Bandit would rather give them a wide-birth. “They are a very easy pair of small dogs to have around. They provide endless entertainment, so cute to look at, have such sweet expressions, and make the most adorable sleeping cosy noises.” (Their foster carer.)

We’ll review your application against the dogs in our care at your chosen centre. If we think we have the right dog for you, we’ll be in touch as soon as possible. If we don’t hear back from you, we will close your application for now, and you can reapply when you’re ready.

Some of the dogs in our care will need to meet potential owners several times to get to know one another. This lets us see you’re compatible and gives you the chance to build a bond before making a commitment to give them a new home. By taking some time at the beginning to make sure everyone’s comfortable, an adoption is more likely to be successful.
We may also arrange a home visit with you, to see how your house will be set up and check that the garden (if you have one) is secure. This may not be necessary, though, especially if you’ve adopted from us before. Where you already have dogs, we may accept a reference from your vet as an alternative.

If we haven’t found the right match, we’ll continue the search together
If we haven’t found the right dog for you within three months, we’ll let you know your application is closed. We’ll invite you to apply again so we have up-to-date information about you, and we’ll keep looking.
