About Henry
Meet Henry, a gentle soul with a heart full of potential, waiting for a patient and loving environment to truly thrive. Though he may be shy and a bit scared around humans at the moment, Henry is on a journey of healing and learning to trust again. His cautious demeanour is a testament to his sensitive and thoughtful nature, and he is searching for someone who understands the value of time and space in building a bond.
Henry has been making progress, and every day is a step forward as he begins to embrace his world with curiosity and hope. A quiet home would be ideal for him, where he can relax and feel secure. He's also open to the presence of another dog, who could serve as a gentle guide and companion in his journey toward becoming more comfortable.
This beautiful boy needs room to gradually unfold and reveal his loving personality. Patience, kindness, and understanding will be key to helping Henry blossom into the loyal canine companion he was always meant to be. If you have the heart and home to support this sweet soul, Henry will return the favour with unwavering loyalty and love in time. Embrace the opportunity to offer Henry the second chance he deserves and discover the deep bond that awaits in nurturing his healing journey.

Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
