Boycie

Description

Successfully rehomed by Blue Cross - Thirsk

Boycie is a gorgeous and spirited little Staffie cross Jack Russell. He enjoys human company and is finding kennels challenging because of the lack of human contact he receives.

Boycie loves to play and we are teaching him a few basic manners as he can be a bit over the top when playing fetch.

He is a bit nervous of other dogs at the centre so we are building his confidence around other dogs every day. He is very food orientated so training him and keeping his attention when other dogs are around is relatively easy.

Overall Boycie has a lovely nature and gives you so much love in return for a cuddle and tummy rub. He may be better being rehomed with older sensible children that can join in with his training regime.
