📍 Location: Wakefield, West Yorkshire
Basic Information
- Age: 3 years (both)
- Sex: Male neutered (both)
- Good with dogs? Can live with other dogs, but they are “take or leave”, they have each other and are happiest as a pair
- Good with cats? Not tested
- Good with children? Older children OK
- Time able to be left alone: Short periods only (they need someone around most of the time)
🐾 Health & Medical Needs
✅ Health conditions: No known health conditions. Sensitive tummies, they do best on a fish-based diet, as meat (especially beef) has previously upset their stomachs. Archie needs to lose a little weight, and his occasional snoring should improve as he slims down.
💊 On medication? No
🧠 Behaviour & Personality
🐾 Behaviour traits: Affectionate “cuddle bugs” who will be on your lap the moment you sit down. Archie is the more confident of the two. Oscar can be a little anxious in certain situations (e.g. vet visits), but both boys are very friendly and love human attention. They are bonded and want to stay together.
🎾 Activity level: Moderate to high – young boys who need a good couple of walks a day (this will help Archie’s weight and build Oscar’s appetite).
📚 Training required: Lead manners and calm starts to walks – they can be strong and over-excited at first and may tangle you up, but they settle nicely once they’ve been walking a little. Feeding routine needed: Oscar can be picky, and Archie must be prevented from finishing Oscar’s leftovers.
🏡 Adoption Criteria
🏡 Type of home required: A home for both dogs together (bonded pair). Ideally a home where someone is around most of the time, as they love human company, though they can be left for short periods once walked and settled for a nap. Adopters must be committed to keeping them on a fish-based diet and maintaining a sensible feeding routine (especially to support Archie’s weight loss and Oscar’s appetite). A home happy to continue their training, particularly lead manners.
📌 Important Notes
✔️ Adopters must have insurance or financial means to cover future medical costs.
