Tonka
10 month old male Staffy
Tonka is a young, adolescent male Staffy who has recently conducted a 3-week stay and learn at Take the Lead. Tonka now has a good foundation of basic obedience including loose lead walking, basic obedience and overall calm behaviour such as crate training and place training.
Tonka is best suited to a home as an only dog due to his lack of dog-to-dog socialisation as a puppy. Tonka can be rude with his greetings and is not suited to a home looking for a dog park dog or off leash dog beach dog. Although he can ignore other dogs, he requires constant reminding around them when in a socialisation setting. Tonka is not to be rehomed with small animals or pocket pets.
Tonka is gentle with children, but once again can forget his size and be a little goofy and forget his size. Tonka is an absolute cuddle buddy, and our trainers are all head over heels in love with his friendly demenour and loving wiggly persoanlity.
He has a large overbite which does not hinder him in anyway. This has been assessed by our vet.

Freya
5 month old female crossbreed
Freya is a lovely little dog who has lots of energy to burn. She is very well mannered, good with other dogs but has shown too much interest in cats to be rehoused with them.
Freya is amazing with smaller respectful children and has proven to be very gentle. She has basic training like sits, downs etc and has been raised in a loving family home.
She is a high energy breed who will need an active family lifestyle. She loves exploring, making new dog friends and being by your side.

Ted
3-year old male large crossbreed
Ted is a shy kind of guy, but when he knows you he absolutely adores you. Ted is the kind of dog who just wants to relax with you and spend days sipping coffee on the couch in the morning. He is low key, not active but still tries to get the zoomies in the fresh air.

Are you looking for a big couch potato? Ted is for you! He prefers a home with no small children and to be an only dog or have another calmer large dog companion.
Ted has had two cruciate ligament repairs.

Wilson
5-year old male large Rottweiler
Hello there, my name is Wilson! I'm a sweet boy in need of a calm, quiet, experienced home where my new humans understand that I'm a bit full on and need some help with learning my manners. I need to find a home where the youngest humans are at least secondary school aged because I am so big and forget my size. I can be quite a bouncy, boisterous young pup (5 years is a pup, right?)- so be prepared for a whole new doggo in my new home!
My new home MUST have a nice sized, secure yard for me and I need to be allowed indoors with the family. I am not suited to a house with other dogs, pocket pets or cats. If you think you have a quiet home, with the experience and know-how to add me to your family, please submit an application.
