Declan

Description

Successfully rehomed by Blue Cross - Southampton

Meet the wonderful Declan who is looking for a new home...

This handsome fellow enjoys being around people and loves the new friends that he has made at the centre since he arrived. Declan loves walking and really enjoys being out and about taking in the fresh air and new smells. If you are looking for a walking companion then you have found your dog, he can be a little strong on the lead but with the lead training we are doing at the centre we are seeing some improvements.

Although Declan is sociable with other dogs he can be a little to enthusiastic and nosey which can cause some other dogs to find him a bit rude. Therefore we would be looking for new owners who are able to exercise Declan in a lower dog populated areas.

Declan would be better suited to living with older children. He does have mild cataracts but this doesn't seem to affect him at this stage.

If you think that you can offer this handsome hound a home then please do get in touch with us today. Thank you.
