Pretzel and Shadow are just two of the gorgeous pooches at Dogs Trust Ballymena waiting to find their forever family.
Bouncy and bubbly Shadow is a five-year-old Boxer keen to meet her forever family. This lady has been working really hard on building her confidence and her new family need to commit to helping her further, but the Dogs Trust team are on hand to help with this and Shadow’s love for tasty treats as a reward will help. She can live with older teenagers but would prefer to be the only dog in her new home so she can keep all the attention to herself as she adores fuss and cuddles.
Shadow’s favourite pastimes are getting out on adventures where she can sniff to her heart’s content, but afterwards will happily snooze by your side.
Pretzel is an 11-month-old Shih Tzu x Collie, a young boy who is ready to be rehomed and enjoy home life.
After successful meets this pup can live with other canine companions and older children. He can be a little shy but with patience and a family willing to continue building his confidence he will settle in and warm to you.
This cutie loves running around and playing so an enclosed garden would be great for Pretzel. If you are up for an energetic youngster and lots of games of fetch, Pretzel could be your next best friend.
Sarah Park, Rehoming Manager at Dogs Trust Ballymena, said: “The spotlight is on Pretzel and Shadow this week in the hopes of finding them a home.
“Pretzel is a total sweetheart, a fun pup who loves to play and would do best with a patient and understanding family to help him settle into home life. Shadow is beautiful dog, full of charm and personality. If you have room in your home and heart for either dog, get in touch!”
If you think you could be Pretzel or Shadow’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.
