Olive

Echo:

Breed: Terrier (Jack Russell)

Gender: Female

Age: 5-7 years old

Olive is described as a "lovely" older girl with "lots of love to give".

She is looking for a quiet forever home with no other dogs as she can be reactive toward them and will need some training around them.

Olive would also benefit from a secure private garden to explore. Some knowledge of the breed is preferred as she shows typical terrier traits.

A Dogs Trust spokesman said: "This sweet little lady has lots of love to give and loves a snuggle. She would be a lovely dog for a family and can live with kids over the age of eight."

Tyra

Echo:

Breed: Rottweiler Cross

Gender: Female

Age: 5-7 years old

This cute girl is looking for owners who have a good understanding of dogs who are aloof and will give her space when needed.

She is a Rottweiler Husky mix and has some typical traits and can be vocal.

Tyra will need a private secure garden with high fencing and cannot live with other dogs, but could live with a dog savvy cat and secondary school children over the age of 14.

Bart 

Echo:

Breed: Italian Corso Dog Cross

Gender: Male

Age: 1-2 years old

Bart is looking for an adult only home with no other pets and will need adopters who are experienced with large, strong breeds.

He has grabbed, heavily mouthed in his previous home and this behaviour needs some ongoing training. Dogs Trust's training team is on hand to provide support with this.

Bart will also need a private, secure garden, with high fencing, to be able to burn off some of his energy. He should be walked in a low dog-populated area.

A spokesman said: "Bart is such a wonderful lad who’d love to find a big-dog-loving home with a sofa to snuggle on. He’s a friendly boy who just wants to play."

Buddy

Echo:

Breed: Terrier (Jack Russell) Cross

Gender: Male

Age: 5-7 years old

This handsome boy is looking for an extra special home in a quiet location as he can be very worried by people approaching his house.

He is also sensitive to loud noises and has shown aggression in previous homes when scared. Buddy doesn’t like other dogs, so he is trained to wear his muzzle when out on walks.

He needs a home with no other pets or children.

Paulo (Pauly pops)

Echo:

Breed: Retriever (Labrador) Cross

Gender: Male

Age: 8+ years old

Paulo is described as a "shimmering coated boy" who is looking for an experienced new adopter who will accept his quirks and offer him a safe and quiet retirement home.

Paulo wears a muzzle out and about as he can be worried if unknown people come too close. However, once he has a bond, he is an affectionate lad.

Pauly pops needs a home with no other pets or children.
