Nala is a “sensitive soul.” She can feel overwhelmed when meeting new people. However, her confidence has grown at the Basildon centre. Nala enjoys quiet walks and gentle socialization. With patience, she will reward her owner with loyalty and love.
Nala needs space to relax and explore, so a private garden is essential. She may live with other dogs of a similar breed and children over 11.
Zara is energetic and enjoys steady walks. She can feel worried when meeting new people but can form strong bonds over time. Zara is looking for a “calm, understanding home” where she will be the only dog.
Zara needs her own space to relax and enjoy the outdoors. She is suitable for children over 16 who are comfortable around big dogs.
Mia is a “high energy” and excitable girl. She loves physical exercise and mental stimulation. Mia is best suited for an active household that can dedicate time to her.
Mia can be reactive around other dogs and small animals like cats, so she needs to be the only pet. With commitment, Mia will be an affectionate and enthusiastic companion.
Diesel is young and friendly. He enjoys meeting new people and high-energy activities. Diesel needs a secure garden for training, as he can get anxious.
Diesel is described as “excitable” and “bouncy.” He would thrive in an active household with children over 14.
Jessie is looking for a calm home. With patience, she will be a loyal and loving companion. Jessie forms bonds quickly with trusted people.
She enjoys gentle walks and needs a quiet home where she will be the only dog. Jessie requires a garden to unwind and prefers low-traffic areas for walks.
