About This Dog for Adoption

Archie's ideal home

Archie is looking for a calm and quiet home with minimal visitors, with adopters who will take him on walks in quiet walking areas, who will play with him and give him all the love and care he deserves. He can be very worried by new people and likes his space so is looking for an adult only home with adopters who will give him space to rest and relax when he needs. Archie could live with an established dog of a similar size who will happily co-exist with him. This will be pending successful meetings at the centre, living with another dog is not a necessity though, he would be happy with calm and polite walking buddies, he cannot live with cats or other small furries. Archie has a little training under his belt, can lose interest in training quite easily, but can be enticed to train for a tasty treat or a toy. He is currently learning to wear a muzzle as he will be going home on a lead and muzzle in public disclaimer. He has been housetrained in the past, but may need a refresher in his new home so access to a private, secure garden is needed. Archie can get a little worried being left alone, he could be left for up to 1-2 hours, this would need to be built up slowly once he has had time to settle into his new home. Archie will need to meet his adopters a few times prior to going home so please bear this in mind when applying. Please note that should you be shortlisted, our rehoming process usually takes up to 7 days, and potential adopters would be required to come up to the centre to meet him within 48hrs of being shortlisted.

Could you be Archie's perfect match?

Sweet little man Archie is an 8 year old Jack Russell/Chihuahua cross who is a little lad with a big personality once he gets to know you. Once he has built a bond with a person he likes a gentle fuss, back and chin scratches are his favourite. He is a playful guy, he loves to chase around teddies, rope toys and balls. He is quite a foodie boy, the smellier the treat the better, he will take them gently from the hand. This little man is looking for his perfect new home.
