Due to a recent family bereavement, Casper, a Great Dane, is in need of rehoming. He demonstrates excellent compatibility with other dogs of all sizes and will be rehomed with his harness and a supply of food. Casper can exhibit nervousness when encountering new individuals and shows an aversion to confined spaces. While generally well-behaved on walks, he may pull when overexcited, requiring an owner with strength and patience to assist with continued training in this area. It is important to note that Casper will require a period of adjustment to his new environment and will need reassurance regarding return before being left alone for extended durations.

Edit to add.
The person in charge of Rehoming casper believes he is around 4 years old. Casper would be best to be in a home with older or no children due to his lack of spacial awareness at times 🤣. He forgets he isn't a lapdog

Wow! What a start to 2025 it's been here!
Every bit of weather possible, I think..

As usual, we are busy and are trying our best to get back to everyone in a timely fashion. If I've not replied to you by 4 pm today, please do get in touch. I've answered 34 enquiries/bookings today and may well have missed 1 or 2.

Looking ahead at the year, I can already tell you we will carry on being busy. The half terms and holidays are all looking a little hectic, so please do book ASAP to avoid disappointment!

Enjoy the pictures of our yard cats enjoying the sunshine and cuddles.

Have a lovely day,
