Waiting for a second chance: Meet Lenny and Max
Are you a dog person? Dogs Trust currently has hundreds of dogs in its care, who are ready to meet someone like you. Two lovely lads at Dogs Trust Ballymena waiting to find their forever family, are Lenny and Max.
Beautiful one-year-old Collie Crossbreed Lenny is a sweet boy who is the perfect mix between a smart, energetic Collie, and a snuggly sofa-loving Staffy. He knows lots of tricks and has developed great friendships with his handlers, whom he always greets with the waggiest tail. Lenny is a super loving boy once he knows you. Lenny can be nervous in new situations, so he is muzzled-trained as a precaution, as it’s a useful skill for him. It has been beneficial for Lenny to be happy wearing a muzzle whilst he builds his confidence with other dogs and when visiting the vet.
Lenny loves to be busy, so he requires dedicated adopters who will provide him with plenty of exercise, mental stimulation and ongoing training. Lenny’s other loves include food and a tennis ball, both of which will help with his training. He will be a fantastic canine companion for someone with plenty of time for him for training and fun playtimes, in an adult-only home where he is the only pet.
Max is a handsome four-year-old cockapoo who is looking for a family to call his own. Max is a friendly, affectionate, boy who is full of energy. This gorgeous lad will thrive in a loving home where he can get all the love and attention he deserves. Max has a medical condition that requires ongoing treatment and prospective adopters will need to be committed to continuing his care.
Max would love a home with an enclosed garden where he can explore and play. He would suit a household where he is not left alone for long periods of time and that is used to excitable dogs. Max could potentially live with a calm dog after successful meets at the rehoming centre and he could live with older children. Max will melt you heart when you meet him and is very much looking forwarding to the day he meets his forever family.
If you think you could be Lenny or Max’s person, then please pop along to Dogs Trust Ballymena. Dogs Trust Ballymena is open to the public five days a week, and you don’t need an appointment to visit, see dogs looking for homes, get advice or apply to adopt.
