Are you right for Rossi?
This handsome boy is Rossi! He is just over 6 years old and a terrier crossbreed. Rossi can be nervous of new people and gets overwhelmed by other dogs, therefore we are looking for a calm, understanding adult only home where Rossi is the only pet. He would enjoy a secure garden to call his own and he would prefer to be walked in quieter areas as he loves to have a good sniff on walks and he loves a roll around on the grass. Rossi will require ongoing training to help him build confidence around vet visits, handling, reactivity and car travel. Adopters with short leaving hours would be ideal as Rossi prefers to have human company during the day.
Is Rossi right for you?
Rossi is lovely boy who adores a bum scratch once he is comfortable, he is very playful and loves a squeaky ball. Rossi very much is a typical terrier with plenty of character and sass! He is fully house trained and has came on very well with his training here at the centre, he loves sausage and cheese as a reward which will be a great motivator for any ongoing training. Rossi will require multiple meets and home visits, any adopter will be fully supported by the Training Team here at the centre.
Rossi truly is a fantastic boy who is looking for a loving and understanding home , If Rossi sounds like the one for you, just fill in an application and don't forget to favourite him!

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.
