Riley and Wally are two gorgeous pooches currently in the charity’s care, waiting to find their forever families.
Riley is a lovely Labrador cross Spaniel who is nearly two years old. She is a super sweet girl who loves attention and fuss. She can be a little nervous when meeting new people, but warms up quickly, especially with some snacks. She is full of fun and life and loves getting out and about on adventures to explore her surroundings and enjoys travelling in the car. Riley is strong on the lead and will benefit from training, which will be a fun activity to enjoy together.
As Riley can be shy with new people, she would prefer to live with adults or older teens who respect dogs' boundaries. She is looking for a home where she is the only dog, although she is more than happy to have dog walking buddies. This energetic lass would like a home with active adopters where she has a secure garden.
Wally is a handsome, young Staffy cross who is a very sweet boy once he gets to know you and builds a bond. Wally gets excited to see his favourite handlers. He loves to go for long sniffy walks in quiet areas and is great in the car, so he is up for walking adventures. Wally also enjoys lots of enrichment to keep him busy.
Wally can be a little nervous of new people so he will require multiple meets at the rehoming centre followed by a home trial to ensure he is happy and settled in his new home. Wally is looking for an adult only home. He could potentially live with another dog after successful meets. He would benefit from ongoing training, including muzzle work for vet visits as he can be worried by vets. Adopters will be fully supported by the staff at Dogs Trust Ballymena with any training requirements. Wally is a fantastic boy who would be a perfect match for experienced adopters who can show him lots of love and watch as his fun, playful side blossoms.
If you are interested in adopting Riley or Wally, please get in touch with the team at Dogs Trust Ballymena or pop along to meet them. Dogs Trust Ballymena is open for general browsing on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday from 12pm to 4pm and by pre-arranged appointments on Wednesday and Friday mornings.
