11-11-2016 Turnip is a 2 year old male Cocker Spaniel who has been given to us by his breeder to find a forever home. He is a little shy to begin with but is a gorgeous boy who is very inquisitive and happy. He is good with other dogs and has always been around them so will need a kind resident dog in his new home to help him get used to the sights and sounds of everyday life and show him the ropes. He will have never lived in a home before and will need help with housetraining and this will be easier if he can follow the example of a resident dog. At the moment Turnip doesn't walk on a lead but as he starts to settle we will gently introduce this to him. Turnip really loves his food and can get a bit grumpy if he thinks another dog is going to take it. He is going to need a quiet home with a patient owner who would like to give him lots of love and patience to help him become a happy family pet. If you can offer Turnip the home that he really deserves then please apply as soon as possible and help him to take the next step into a better life.
PLEASE NOTE: We nearly always home dogs who have come from breeders where there is ALREADY A RESIDENT DOG living in the house. They have usually never lived in a house before and are only used to canine company. They usually get their confidence and learn faster with another dog to copy from. This also helps with house training and learning how to walk on a lead. They will make lovely pets but do need a lot of love, time and patience. If the ex breeding dog you are interested in can be an only dog it will say so in its write up. Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
