Ralph is a bouncy energetic boy who is looking
for a new owner who is equally as active. Without daily exercise Ralph
will become bored, bark, and is capable of getting out of his yard and
finding his own entertainment (as most working dogs are). As well as
daily exercise he would enjoy interactive toys to keep him busy when he
is in his yard, and playing ball. Ralph is used to spending time indoors
with his owner (and sleeping indoors) and has been house trained. He has
not lived with any other animals, and is very afraid of fireworks. When
home alone Ralph will need a large yard, with high secure fences to keep
him safe, along with environmental enrichment. |

Jimmy is a gentle boy who needs a new home
where he gets daily exercise and has a yard with high secure fencing to
keep him safe (no farm fencing). Jimmy is used to being an outside only
dog, and has lived with another dog before. He would benefit from
obedience training to help him bond to his owner, and as he loves being
with people, some house training to allow him to come inside would be
great. He gets bored easily, so a home where he is with his owner most
of the time, or where he can be involved in dog sports to engage his
brain would be best. His coat will require regular brushing to remove
tuffs and keep him looking handsome. When home alone he would love
interactive toys, like treat balls to keep him occupied. |

This girl is looking for a new owner who has
had experience training large breed dogs before. She will need some
obedience training and lots of slow socialisation to help adjust and get
confident going out and about. Ridgebacks have a hunters instinct and
are not always compatible with small pets such as little dogs, cats,
rabbits, etc. This girl requires daily exercise and walks to keep her
fit and healthy, and to keep her safe and happy when home alone: a large
yard with high secure fences and with lots of environmental enrichment. |

A delightful young man who needs an owner who
has had lots of experience with scent hounds. For those who do not know
much about bloodhounds, imagine the beagle but larger, more independent,
louder and with drool added :) Clearly not for everyone. This young man
is quite boisterous and needs to go to a new home with adults and
teenagers. He requires obedience training in his new home as well as
socialisation with other dogs and people. Still being a pup he will get
destructive and bay loudly if bored. Daily exercise is a must, however
must be on lead otherwise he will take off after a scent. He would be
fabulous for someone who wishes to participate in tracking with their
local dog club. He also requires a very secure yard to keep him safe and
prevent him from taking off after scents. |

they are small and easy to care for. However g.pigs do require a large

shredded newspaper so they can burrow and hide in it. G.pigs love
