Suzie & Tiny

arrived to us 6 months ago in the most horrendous state; skin and bone with matted dirty hair. They are 10 years old and were used for a life time of breeding. 

They have settled in well and are like an old married couple. Grumbling away at each other all the time but yet each would be lost without the other. They love their walks and a potter in the garden together. They love human attention and heaven would be a cozy bed in front of the fire. They would suit a home where they would be the only pets as they are so used to having just each other.

Tiny is neutered and overall is in good health. Suzie is not spayed as when she went for her surgery we discovered that her kidneys were under a lot of pressure. She would need to be supervised at all times outdoors just to keep her safe. Tiny had to have lots of teeth removed as they were completely rotten & he was treated for a really bad ear infection. Suzie is clinically blind from an untreated eye condition that is very easily managed.

The fact that she can’t see her new environment or anyone approaching her is a hurdle with any change of routine.

We are more than happy to let them retire with us here and live out the remainder of their lives at the shelter. However, we are willing to give them into a loving retirement foster home together as long as the family can meet their needs. They deserve some pampering for the rest of their lives. 

Our adorable pups

They are German Shepherd cross and are expected to be large when fully grown. They are 6 weeks old and will be ready to go to their forever homes in another 6 weeks. It is vital that they remain together until they are 3 months old so that they can learn all the important social skills that every dog should experience.

Yes - they are bundles of cuteness right now but they also have no idea how sharp their nails and teeth are 😭 You should be prepared for everything that puppies do …. Chewing, eating shoelaces, crying when they are lonely, toilet accidents in the house, jumping up ….

You also need to think long and hard about your plans for the next 10 to 15 years and how a dog will fit in with all those plans. Is your housing situation stable? Can you afford the food and veterinary treatment they will need over their lifetime? Are you planning to have children? Who will mind the dog when you want to go on holidays? Are you willing to invest the time and energy to train, socialise and exercise this beautiful breed 💗

‼️ Research the breed: They are intelligent, loyal and energetic. Reserved but friendly. They enjoy the company of their family and can struggle with separation anxiety. They are also protective which means they can be hesitant when first meeting strangers. They are also listed as a restricted breed in Ireland so the following laws apply: They need to be muzzled in public and be on a short, strong lead. They must wear a collar at all times with the owners information on it. They can only be led by people over the age of 16.

These puppies will only be homed as indoor pets. They will need a secure garden with somebody home a lot of the time. They will need time and patience to adjust to a new home, living without their siblings and all aspects of training that comes with living indoors. You will also need to agree to neuter them once they are old enough.

Connie

Hold on to your heart ….. this is Connie 💕💕

Connie is 8 years old and has stolen everyone’s heart here at the centre. She is just beautiful. She is tiny and so chilled out.

She tries over for a cuddle and then trots off to watch everything that’s going on around her. She is a a wise old soul and very quiet. She will make the most amazing companion and lap dog for anyone. She is healthy and happy and deserves a great home after ending up in the pound 💔

She gets on great with all the other dogs at the centre. She loves a good trot around the yard and would love a home with a secure garden to investigate and have a good sniff in.

Are you looking for a furry companion and are openminded as long as the personality fits?
