Are you right for Snowy & Skippy?
Meet Skippy the 11 year old Jack Russell and Snowy the 11 year old Bishon cross, who are looking for a home to call their own, these pawsome pooches find the big wide world a rather scary place and need an understanding family who will help them to grow in their confidence gently and at their own pace. Skippy and Snowy would live to find a cosy home with some comfy beds to snooze on and someone to care for and spoil them. These lovely fluffs are ready to find their new home.
Is Snowy & Skippy right for you?
Snowy & Skippy are a looking for a home together, they are looking for a calm and relaxed home with adopters who will take the time to help him settle in and give him all the love and care he deserves. They are going to need time to settle in and get to know their new family so would like an adult only home where they will get the peace and quiet they need. Snowy & Skippy will be going home together and could live with another dog of similar size who will happily co-exist with them. They are not currently going on walks so will need a private, secure garden where they can potter at their leisure outside. Snowy & Skippy can settle in the home as long as they are together, so could be left for up to 4 hours, this would need to be built up gradually after they have had time to settle into their new home. They will need to their adopters a few times prior to going home so please bear this in mind when applying.

Show detailsIf we’ve found a dog who seems right for you, we’ll invite you to come and meet them at the rehoming centre.
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.
