Background –

Piper and Sookie arrived with us with minimal history, but it is believed they have lived in a home environment.

Character –

The girls are both incredibly affectionate and love to get cuddles! Piper would happily spend all day on your lap or under a blanket. She loves food and food based games, she’s cheeky and stubborn when she wants to be. Sookie is the more nervous of the two; she seeks reassurance from her people and would love a kind, calm person to cuddle up with. Once settled, Sookie loves to play and run around the secure field!

These girls are the perfect pair if you want to love and be loved.

“It’s been a real joy to watch these girls settle and come out of their shells. Sookie loves to be loved and play with toys, whilst Piper will do (almost) anything for another snack”

Type of home –

We are looking for a calm, patient home for the girls with people who can commit to supporting their needs, providing plenty of cuddles, training, and socialisation. The girls can’t share a house with other pets, and walks should be in quiet areas with plenty of space from other dogs. They haven’t met children whilst in our care, but they have not shown any negative behaviour towards people, so they may be able to live with sensible, very calm children, subject to successful introductions.

Sookie and Piper are low-energy dogs who thrive with mental enrichment, and they can be left for a few hours under the right circumstances. They have already learnt a lot in their foster home, so we believe with the right training and commitment, they’ll make cracking little companions.

Health –

Piper has a sensitive tummy, which will need careful management through her diet.

Adopting –

The girls are in foster care in Weston-super-Mare and applicants would need to come and meet them here.
