Rex (On Trial 14/3/13)

Rex is a 6 year old Boxer x staffy. He is an absolute charmer. He is happy to just lay around and sleep. He has become my young daughter's shadow. He loves a cuddle and is a big boy with a massive heart.

Rex is good to walk on a lead is dog friendly. Rex is house trained. He has some basic training. Rex does not seem to be a barker unless there is someone at the door, but as soon as you tell him it's ok he will walk away and lay down.

Like many dogs, Rex is terrified of fireworks so shouldn't be left home alone during fireworks. Rex is a very sweet boy and extremely loyal. He will make an ideal friend and protector of children. He will be very grateful to have a home of his own and bring lots of love and happiness with him in return. Rex was rescued from a local pound by Dog Rescue Newcastle as we thought this big beautiful boy deserved to live.
