About Winston
Hello there new family! Please read the entire profile and Adoption Procedures BEFORE sending your Enquiry for little Winston. Due to a huge number of applicants and being 100% volunteer run organisation, we are only able to respond to successful applicants. Thank you so kindly for choosing Rescue! xo *
Winston is an 11 week old puppy, who's small now, but will potentially be a quite big when grown up. His Mumma is a Bassett hound X and we suspect his Dadda to be a Bull Arab X.
Winston is a lovely boy who loves to play! He is very energetic and would best suit an active forever home who will include him on outings. Winston loves to be cuddled and especially enjoys falling asleep on your lap. Unfortunately for Winston he is going to grow up to be a big boy, and may not fit on some ones lap for much longer!
Winston is very clever and has responded well to the basic obedience training he has done with his foster mums, however he can be easily distracted so it would be very beneficial for him to attend puppy school. He always has a wagging tail- he’s a sweet boy officially nicknamed “Sir Winston Wigglebutt” He is in foster care with his siblings, his Mumma Rose and his feline (cat) sister Jasmine.
Winston would need to go to a forever home where there could be another doggy friend to play with, where he will be kept safe, indoors to sleep and when you are not at home. He’s looking for his forever family who will cherish and adore him, right through to the ripe old senior age. We believe dogs are a part of the family and should be included in everyday life and he just loves to be included.
Winston is living with a very relaxed kitty, who is also a rescue. As puppy’s can get a bit boisterous we recommend slow and controlled introductions to your current resident kitties if you have them. This also applies to children as puppies this size can accidently knock toddlers over without understanding what has happened. No one wants puppy or human tears so if you have wee little ones please consider the safety of both before applying.
We're looking for dedicated, mature humans to welcome Winston into their home & hearts, continue with Winston’s puppy training & socialisation & also of course commit to his on-going adult training which is so important not only for his particular breed but for any doggy joining a new family.
Adoption applications with an existing family dog will take priority over others. Winston's ideal home is with another already existing dog to show him the ropes, etiquette, dog to dog interactions and mannerism.
Medical notes
Winston is a happy and healthy puppy who will be fully vet worked before going to his forever home
