Background –

Billy joined us because their owner were struggling to cope with the needs of a young dog.

Character –

Billy is a happy chappy that loves people, fuss and toys. He is keen to learn and picks up new things quickly, he’s been busy practicing all the latest commands in foster (including sit and recall). He’s been sleeping well through the night and settles without a peep. He’s been practicing his housetraining so taking him out regularly after naps, meals, play time etc. should keep him on track to perfecting his toilet habits!

As with any puppy his age, ongoing training and socialisation will need to be required to help him become a well rounded and happy adult dog. He’s been living in a multi-dog household in foster and shown himself to be respectful (as much as a puppy his age can be), listening when they tell him off or warn him they’re not in the mood for puppy nonsense.

Type of home –

Billy is looking for a home that has the time and energy to commit to training and socialising a puppy into adulthood and beyond.

Any resident dogs should be socialised and friendly with other dogs, as well as being tolerant of playful puppies – all resident dogs must be neutered.

We are very happy to rehome with sensible, gentle children who are unphased by typical puppy behaviours.

Any resident cats would ideally already be ‘dog-friendly,’ but don’t worry if they haven’t previously lived with dogs! Just be ready to guide them through a patient introduction period to ensure a peaceful start. Cats can often be stressed when puppies are introduced to the household.

Adopting –

Billy is currently in Axbridge, and potential adopters will need to visit him here or at a secure field near Cheddar reservoir.

Our catchment area for rehoming is Somerset and the local surrounding areas (such as Bristol, Bath, Weston Super Mare and Wiltshire).
