Leicester Animal Aid is appealing to the public to help find their longest staying dogs – Ernie, Doug, Otter – loving and responsible homes. The dogs, who are all male aged 3 years or under, have been with the Leicestershire-based re-homing charity for several months, and despite appeals on social media they are still being overlooked.
Finding the right home is a bit like matchmaking because new owners must have a lifestyle that is compatible with their new best friend. The Charity is seeking owners who have experience of the animals’ behaviour quirks, which may be one of the factors causing a delay in finding the right home. All three dogs are looking for a new home where they are the only pet and will be living with adults only. The dogs have had some interest, but they haven’t found their perfect match yet. Could their quirks be what you are looking for? Maybe you, or someone you know could offer them the right environment to thrive.
Ernie, is a cheeky and fun-loving British Bulldog, who loves football. He will play with his new owner(s) all day once he trusts them, and he does need help learning to share his new toys. He would love to end his 9-month-long stay with the re-homing centre and find a forever home soon. This would preferably be somewhere with a nice peaceful and comfy bed.
Doug, a Golden Retriever, is lively and full of character. Doug needs help learning to trust humans, as he has been left feeling nervous of new people. The charity is surprised that he is still there after 11 months. Doug does need a very patient owner who is experienced with his breed. Doug also is very possessive of his toys and needs a patient owner who can manage his behaviour within the home when he feels overwhelmed.
Otter, a handsome and cheeky chap, is also unsure of new environments. He is an Akita, a unique breed. The kennel team at LAA say he has grown hugely in confidence, and they are hoping to find an owner who can continue helping him with this. Otter would be best with someone who has lots of time for him and who will be understanding of his needs. He would make a great walking companion if heading somewhere quiet and rural.
