New dog listed for rescue at the Edinburgh Dog and Cat Home - Opal

Opal is described as a Husky Cross Collie. Can live with... Teenagers More about Opal Opal is looking for an owner who have had nervous dogs before. She would like access to a garden, so she has her own space to enjoy and to be kept company for most of the day. Opal is looking to be the only pet but may be able to live with high school aged, dog savvy children. Opal is the sweetest of girls who is very attention orientated with those she knows best. She can be a bit unsure if someone approaches her too quickly or tries to handle her too much and will shy away so she needs a patient owner who understand dog body language. Things will need to be taken at a pace she is comfortable with but once she learns that there is nothing to be afraid of, she is the biggest snuggle bug and will happily sit beside you for cuddles all day. She may be a little older, but it does not stop her from running around with her favourite squeaky toy. Opal did arrive as a bit of a chunky girl and is still working on trimming her waistline so she will need a sensible owner who will gradually build up her fitness by taking her on many different adventures.

New dog listed for rescue at the Edinburgh Dog and Cat Home - Summer

Summer is described as a Lurcher. Can live with... Children Dogs More about Summer Summer is looking for an active owner who can work on her basic training and she would like access to a garden, so she has another space to burn off some energy. Summer may be able to live with high school aged children and possibly another young dog. Summer is a fun, excitable, young girl who is friendly with everyone she meets. She is very playful and loves to run around our paddocks with a toy but does get over excited at times so needs help to understand how to keep all four paws on the ground. She does have worries about travelling, so needs an understanding owner who have the patience and time to help her overcome her nerves. Summer does enjoy the company of other dogs, but she can be a bit too bouncy for some. She may be able to live with a dog of similar size who matches her energy pending a successful introduction. After a day of fun, she does enjoy her chill out time in a nice cosy bed. Summer had some veterinary treatment when she arrived with us. More information will be discussed with successful applicants.

New dog listed for rescue at the Edinburgh Dog and Cat Home - Scotia

Scotia is described as a Siberian Husky. Can live with... Children More about Scotia Scotia has been extremely popular and has now been matched to several possible homes so we are no longer accepting interest for him.

He may be able to live with high school aged children but is looking to be the only pet. Scotia is a happy boy who is always keen to say hello to who he meets. He is a typical husky who likes to sing the song of his people to let everyone know he is there so would be best suited to an owner who know and love the husky breed. He is full of energy and can become bored easily so he will need to be kept company for most of the day and would thrive with an active owner who are committed to taking him for long adventures. He is playful and loves to chase after his toys, particularly squeaky ones! Scotia will make a fantastic companion with the right family.
