Two Boys Still Looking.....

At the start of December we had a run of appeals looking for homes for four of our older boys. I'm delighted to say that Dinky found his home and that Rusty has since moved onto another rescue with a bigger rehoming programme and is doing exceptionally well.

For Bully and Oscar though it was another Christmas spent in our kennels and, as we are now half way through January I thought we could start looking again for Oscar and Bully.

I think it's fair to say that when he joined us, Oscar was a real handful. He'd been seperated from his mother too early and I think the socialisation he missed from his mother in those couple of weeks really effected his behaviour later in life.

Having recently turned 11 he has really settled down and, although age is definately begin to show itself, he is still a very active and strong boy.

So we are looking for somebody that MUST have German Shepherd experience and to make things easier for Oscar we would like a home with no other dogs or children.


Bully has been with us  a long time now and despite being a bit of a villian when he arrived, he has always been everyone's favourite.

However,  time catches up with us all and Bully is no exception. So, we are looking to find him a home with someone who has experience and understands how difficult the transition from kennel life to the outside world can be.

To make this transition easier for Bully we insist on an environment with no other dogs, animals or children.


If you'd like to known more about how you can join the Forever Foster Scheme and offer a loving home to either of these very special boys, then please email a contact number to foreverfoster@shak.org.uk and somebody will give you a call.
