Adoption information
About Shirley
Shirley is such a great little dog, she is full of love, both receiving and giving. She adores playing with a tennis ball and will play fetch. But her main goal is to get snuggles, either by your feet or on your knee getting a belly rub.
Shirley has met several other dogs, and can be a little tentative, she needs slow introductions and then will happily run around paying chasing with them.
Shirley enjoys going for walks but pulls on the lead, she loves going in the car and will just sit there quietly, though at times seems to whimper for no given reason except excitement. Food of all sorts is another love of hers, including any leftovers from your plates.
At night she prefers to sleep very close to her owner, but will sleep in a doggy bed without any problems if she's told to stay.
Shirley has a great personality, very laid back and chilled. But gets extremely excited when visitors come,
Very, very rarely does Shirley bark! The only time I've her bark is when playing with her ball, and even then it's only occasionally. She doesn't bark at people or other dogs, or any strange noises.
Shirley does not like being left outside, she much prefers indoors specially if her owner is home. She won't cause any trouble, just curls up somewhere comfy.
Shirley has never had an accident inside, she will go directly to the back door and sit there until she's let out to go to the toilet.
Shirley requires the following in her new home:
- To be an only dog.
- Someone home most of the time.
- To go for little walks daily.

Adoption details
Please note- we do not work on a first in best dressed basis. We assess all applications to choose the home that we believe will best match the animals needs.
If you believe one of our animals would be a good match for your home, please send us a detailed email with some information about the people and any other animals in your home, as well as the type of lifestyle you can offer a new rescue pet.
We are volunteers who run the rescue around families, paid employment and other commitments so your patience is appreciated.
We do require you to travel to meet the animal you are looking to adopt. For dog adoptions, any other dogs in your home must attend the meet and greet, this enables us to assess their compatibility and helps prevent them being returned and creating more confusion/insecurities for the foster animal.
We reserve the right to refuse the adoption if we don't believe it's a good match for our animals.
All our animals are available for a fully refundable 2 week trial period. If you ever find yourself unable to care for, or keep your pet, please contact us and they will come back into our care, or we will do our best to assist you in finding them a suitable new home, this is a condition that you agree to when signing our Adoption Agreement.
