🐕 Dog

Sweet And Spritely!
Bucks is a friendly, confident boy who loves meeting new people and always greets you at the door with a happily wagging tail. He’s social, easy to approach, and enjoys human company, making him a lovely dog to spend time with. Despite his age, he’s still spritely and full of enthusiasm, occasionally jumping up when he gets excited.
He’s an easy‑going dog who takes most things in stride. Bucks tolerates handling well, though he’s not overly keen on having his back end touched, so some gentle desensitisation would help him feel more comfortable. He’s food‑motivated, which makes training enjoyable and effective. With a bit of impulse‑control training, he’ll continue to refine his manners and channel his excitement in positive ways.
Bucks is dog‑friendly and confident around other dogs. He could be rehomed with a medium‑sized dog who has a similar temperament, or he’d be just as happy as an only dog with regular socialisation. Matching him with a calm, steady companion and offering slow, positive introductions will help set him up for success.
He’s house‑trained, people‑focused, and adaptable, making him a great fit for a variety of homes. Due to his enthusiasm and occasional jumping, Bucks would be best suited to a home with children aged 10 and up. With his steady nature, friendly personality, and love of human interaction, Bucks is ready to bring joy, companionship, and plenty of tail wags to his new family. Apply Now for the opportunity to meet this sweet senior. 💕
