Are you right for Henry?
My name is Henry, I am becoming accustomed to being treated like royalty in my foster home. I love nothing more than a morning sniff in the garden to start my day, breakfast is served and I eat it like it might get taken away! You see I have been in the stray pound, so feel I need to eat quickly, I think I’ll slow down when I settle in a loving home. I’m ready for my walkies, I am happy to go anywhere at anytime and I have not found anywhere I don’t like! I haven’t paid much attention to other dogs when I am on the lead, so once I am friends, I can probably play with other dogs.
Is Henry right for you?
I love the sun and will bathe in the window all day unless reminded that I do not run on solar power! I love snuggles, my chest being rubbed, a secure garden would be preferred, although not essential, if you are happy to put me on lead and take me out. I know the command sit, although I am super busy, I am keen to meet everyone and I just adore attention
Complete your application to adopt and add me to your favourites, if you are shortlisted and matched, remember I am in foster in Cumbria, so the day you arrange to meet me is the day you adopt me and take me home.

We’ll review your application
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.
