More about Benny
Benny is looking for an experienced owner who have had larger bull breed dogs in the past, so can fully understand the bully personality. He would like access to a garden so he can work on his basic training and to be kept company for most of the day whilst he settles in. Benny will need to be the only pet but may be able to live with dog savvy older teenagers who won’t be worried by his boisterous nature.
Benny can be a bit unsure of new people to start with but is the sweetest, happiest of boys who is very loving and likes to cuddle up for a snooze beside you. He is a bundle of fun who is playful and loves his squeaky toys or a game of tug, although his exuberance means he becomes a bit of a bull in a China shop at times! He will require an experienced owner who understand bully breeds and how boisterous they can be though he is very eager to please.
Benny hasn’t had the easiest time and can become overstimulated in some situations so needs an understanding owner who have the patience and time to help him adjust to his new surroundings. He does thoroughly enjoy his enrichment sessions though which will help during the moments he feels overwhelmed. He enjoys his walks to the beach and is happy to walk alongside other dogs although he much prefers doing his own thing.
Benny does have arthritis in his elbow which is being managed by pain medication, and he will have to remain on this for the rest of his life. More information will be discussed with successful applicants.

Teddy is looking for an adult only home but may be able to live with another dog pending a successful introduction.
Teddy is a loyal boy to his favourite people who can be extremely affectionate and loving once he knows you . He can lack in confidence when it comes to saying hello to new people but he is very eager to please, particularly when you have a tasty bit of cheese or hot dog on offer. He is full of energy and loves running around chasing after his toys or getting zoomies when he goes to the beach so he will thrive with an active owner.
Teddy does get on with other dogs, but he doesn’t always realise when he is being too much for them. If he was to live with another dog, it will need to be one that will help show him the ropes of being a more polite, sociable boy.

More about Benji
Benji is looking for an experienced shepherd owner who can manage his behaviour. He would prefer to have a garden, so he has another outdoor space to enjoy. He needs to be the only pet in an adult only home.
Benji is a happy boy who is full of life and excitement. He is very energetic and thoroughly enjoys his walks whether it be to the nature reserve or down to the beach where he can dip his paws into the water. He would thrive with an active owner who can give him the mental and physical stimulation he needs to keep him happy.
Whilst mostly a happy boy, he does know what he does and doesn’t like, but by managing his behaviour carefully, any unnecessary frustrations can be avoided. Benji is very loyal to those he knows best so can take a little time warming up to new faces, men more so, but with the help of his favourite squeaky toy is more than capable of making new friends. In the right home, with the right owner, Benji is sure to make a fantastic addition.

More about Ozzy
Ozzy is looking for an experienced terrier owner that have knowledge of reactivity. He would prefer to have a garden, so he has his own space to decompress as he can feel a little bit overwhelmed when out on walks. He needs to be an only pet in an adult only home.
Ozzy is a sweet boy who can be very affectionate and loving to those he knows well. He can come across as confident, but he does have a worried side to him so needs an understanding owner who can help build his confidence. Despite his age, he is full of life and enjoys keeping active or going for walks along to the beach where he can have a splash in the sea.
He can find being walked in busier areas a bit too much, which results in him being very vocal, so he will need an owner who is patient and willing to work on this with him and take him to quieter areas for his walks. Due to how overwhelmed he can be when out and about, he will require a garden of his own where he can enjoy enrichment activities such as sniffing out treats in a snuffle mat.

More about Alan
Alan is looking for a home away from the city centre with an active owner who has had experience with collies. He could potentially live with older teens but would need to be the only pet in a home with access to a private garden.
Alan is a young and excitable boy who loves activities that keep his mind busy. He has bags of energy and will need plenty of exercise, and extra activities to keep him happy and stimulated. He is, however, a typical collie with all the typical collie traits and can become overwhelmed in busy areas where there is a lot of traffic so is best suited to an owner who know and love the breed. He enjoys human company and can get anxious when left so will need an understanding owner who can spend time with him.
Alan can have doggy friends out and about but has shown that he doesn’t like to share his things with them in the home so will only be suited as the only pet. He is a super boy and would make a great companion and a fantastic addition for an active family.

More about Bella
Bella is looking for an experienced who has a home with a private garden. She gets very upset when left alone, so will need to have company all day while she works on this issue, and would make the ideal companion for someone who works from home. Bella may be able to live with older dog savvy teenagers but is looking to be the only pet.
Bella is a real sweetheart who can be a bit wary of new people to start with but does come around, especially if you have a tasty treat on offer. She is very loving and affectionate, and will happily sit beside you for fussing and attention, but she does think she is a lap dog so would prefer to sit on you to receive her fussing! She has made doggy friends here and would enjoy having some dog walking buddies, but would be best suited to being the only pet in her home. She is full of energy and would like having an activity to do to keep her busy brain occupied, and has enjoyed doing some scent work while with us.
Bella loves human company so much that she really does struggle being left alone so will need help to understand that being left isn’t so scary. She requires a committed and understanding owner who will work on this issue and be open to working with a recommended dog trainer to support with her improvement.
Bella is currently taking part in extra training with the Paws for Progress team in their rescue dog training programme at HMYOI Polmont. She is working hard on confidence building skills and slowly learning that people leaving is okay. HMP & YOI Polmont | Paws for Progress

More about Niall
Niall is looking for an experienced owner who have had large dogs before and can work on his confidence. He will need to be kept company all day and would like his own private garden, so he has a space to call his own to stretch out his big legs. He is looking to be the only pet in an adult only home.
Niall is a real sweet boy who, although can be unsure of people he doesn’t know, is easily won over by a tasty biscuit or two. He is generally confident with most scenarios, but new people are a bit scary for him, so he does require an understanding owner who will take things gradually with him and slowly work on his confidence. He can find it difficult being left on his own so his new owner will need to keep him company and help him learn it’s okay to spend time alone.
Once he does know you, he is super affectionate and will happily make himself a lap dog despite his size! He is full of energy and loves to run around chasing after his toys in the paddocks and he may enjoy hill walking. With the right introductions, Niall does make doggy friends who match his energy but he will need to continue working on his social skills around new dogs.
