Elizabeth13 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Sheffield Pound have given their 'at risk of pts' dogs.. All pictures are on http://www.ineedahome.co.uk under sheffield council strays. Please see reference numbers. 7600 - SBT cross - 1yr - Male - Brindle/White - Small/Medium Very friendly with everyone he meets. A small staffy cross with a very cute face and floppy ears. He is currently wound up in kennels and will have a go when walking past barking dogs. In his kennel he behaves. He is a sweet boy. He knows basic commands. 7621 - Lurcher - 2yrs - Male - Red - Medium A little underweight at present. Very friendly with everyone he meets and seems ok with other dogs. He looks a bit Ibizian hound like, a very nice reddy colour. He eats very well. He is a bit of an escape artist so has had to be in a covered kennel as he will jump over. He knows some basic commands. 7622 - Lab cross - 1yr - Male - Black - Medium A lovely friendly, young giddy lad. No problems seen in kennel but is getting increasingly stressed out. He has been good with other dogs but will bark back if he is next to a barker. He knows some basic commands. He is a bit underweight at the minute due to stressing out, he is eating well. 7635 - Cross Breed - 10mths - Male - Black/White - Medium "Dawson" Another young, lively boy who has been no problems at all in kennels. He seems good with other dogs and will walk past them no problems at all He is very friendly with everyone he meets, loves to chase the water from the hose pipe. He does know some basic commands. He is microchipped. 7650 - ABD cross - 18mths - Male - Tan/White - Medium A quieter, timid lad. He is friendly but timid at first, he has shown no aggression in kennels but will bark at strangers. He is calm in his kennel and will wait until you speak to him and reassure him before coming for a fuss. He will bark at dogs but no aggression seen. He tries to stay clean inside and does know basic commands. 7658 - Cross Breed - 8-10mths - Female - Brindle - Medium "Sally" Sally was adopted from us but brought back a week later for being too much for the new owners. From owners comments, Sally needs to learn boundaries as she was pushing these when in the home, the adopters said that Sally is a lovely placid girl most of the time but gets into a puppy like frenzy on odd occasions and starts jumping up and moutheing at you. She seems fine with other dogs. 7681 - GSD cross - 6/7yrs - Male - Tan - Large "Snoop" (Have contacted GSDR - awaiting response) Snoop has been very friendly in kennels. Unfortunately Snoop was adopted but then returned the next day. Snoop can be dominant in the home and doesnt like being told NO. He growled and snapped at the adopter when, whilst he was laid down, he was asked to move and he didn't, so the adopters went to move him with their hands. Other than that, Snoop has been really friendly, seems ok with other dogs, chases small animals but not aggressively. He knows basic commands and seems housetrained. Medusa - as you can see the last is a old GSD crossbreed, do you think there is a GSD rescue that can help this older chappy?? Anyone able to offer the other dogs a home or space?

medusa Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I'll pass on this dude's information to the dog coordinator for the area to see if she can find a space for him. It would seem that he could really do with being in a foster home with someone who can assess him more completely to enable us to know what we're dealing with when looking for a new home for him.

Moonbird Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Poor things, I wish I could take the lurcher, but sadly I'm full to bursting with various creatures Has anyone approached Lurcher link or Greyhound gap or any of the other specialist sites do you know?

Elizabeth13 Posted August 21, 2012 Author Share Posted August 21, 2012 The lurcher is fine moonbird, he is going to a rescue soon if he is not rehomed before then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medusa Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Sorry I can't tell you what happened to Snoop- I'm no longer a coordinator with GSDR so I don't have access to records and just pass on the messages. GSDR is currently unable to take in any dogs that need kennels or a foster home unfortunately as they have the highest number of dogs in history already in their care. I'd love to say that GSDR can take in all dogs, but as a small charity which is staffed entirely by volunteers it comes down to people volunteering to provide a GSD-experienced foster home or raise the funds to pay for commercial kennels, and in the current financial climate those aren't easy to come by.
