Dogs Trust: Milo the Beagle crossbreed and Border Collie Olly both need rehoming in Northern Ireland

Two pawsome pooches currently in the charity’s care waiting to find their forever family, are Milo and Olly.

Milo is a super sweet six-year-old Beagle crossbreed. He has stolen the hearts of many staff at Dogs Trust Ballymena with his happy smile and fabulous ears.

Milo loves getting out and about for sniffy adventures and walks like a dream on lead. He travels well in the car and his tail just doesn't stop wagging while he's having fun with his favourite people. After a busy day, Milo is happy to snuggle up for a relaxing evening. He can be a little shy when he meets someone new, but once he gets to know you, Milo will be your best buddy.

Milo has previously lived with another dog and could share his new home with a calm companion, although he would equally be happy as the only dog in his forever home. Milo is a laid-back chap who is comfortable being left alone for a few hours.

Leaving time could be built gradually once settled into his new home. Milo could also live with children aged 12 and over.

Gorgeous three-year-old Border Collie Olly is a much-loved dog searching for his forever home.

Speaking about the handsome boy, Conor O’Kane, Manager at Dogs Trust Ballymena, said: “We are appealing to anyone who is a dog person, who enjoys rural life and wants an intelligent dog, to come and meet Olly. As Olly has been with us for most of his life, we know him so well, and we can’t praise him highly enough.

“But we don’t want people just to take our word for it. We are inviting dog lovers to come and meet him and find out for themselves how fantastic he is.

“When Olly meets his person, they will fall in love with his infectious personality and comedic antics. Olly is very clever, has a loving nature, and he makes us laugh every day.

“He knows many commands and tricks and is happy to show these off to anyone he meets. He is always challenging himself to add more tricks and skills to his repertoire.

“He would be an amazing dog for someone interested in training or enrichment activities such as scent work, as he loves to keep his mind busy. Rural life is the life for Olly, so his perfect match will live in a quiet area and be looking for an adventure buddy to enjoy long country walks with. If your dream dog is goofy, playful, intelligent, and with a real zest for life, then you could be Olly’s person.”

Olly is looking for an adult-only home where he is the only pet. If you fancy playing ball with Olly, come and meet him.
