Animal charity RSPCA is home to several beautiful dogs that are looking for a second chance at finding a loving family. These dogs are currently living at the in Birmingham Animal Centre at Newbrook Farm in Frankley Green.
Whether you are adopting or buying a dog, it’s a decision that needs to be taken carefully. With recent attacks by dogs, their behaviour have come into question.
New and experienced owners need to proceed with caution and ensure that their dogs are trained well - even if it means hiring private fields to walk dogs. Some of the dogs in the care of the charity have specific requirements - such as socialising at a slow pace, being the only animal in a home, and being in a home with no small children - that need to be taken seriously.
However, when the humans take precautions to give a healthy and caring home - dogs or any pet can thrive. Dogs love unconditionally and are fiercely loyal to their owners. And, you are likely to find a dog that would suit your personality and lifestyle at the charity making them perfect partners for your adventures. Here are seven loving dogs that are up for adoption in Birmingham Animal Centre:
5. Stella
She is a 4-year-old Mastiff crossbreed. Stella was emaciated and living in terrible conditions before she was rescued by RSPCA inspectors. She is a very clever girl who is affectionate and very loyal to her bonded people, Stella will plonk herself down on her carer’s laps, forgetting how big she is! Stella can be social with well matched dogs but to allow her the time and space to settle into a real home we are looking for her to be the only animal in that home. | RSPCA Birmingham
6. Mischief the Chief
He is a 3-year-old crossbreed. Mischief has made some doggie friends in his time at the animal centre and has enjoyed off-lead play with some of the young females, quite the ladies man! People familiar with bull-lurcher cross breeds will recognise his bouncy, grabby / mouthy play and his ability to laze around for long periods, followed by short bursts of frenetic activity! He could live with another suitable dog in the right home, providing good meets here at the centre. He could live in a family home where kids, if present, are of mid-teen age and older. | Birmingham RSPCA
7. Pots
She is a 4-year-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier crossbreed. No amount of hardship has dulled her spirit, so with Pots, her new owners would be welcoming a whole new world of fun into their lives! Pots will need owners who are able to stay with her and gradually help her learn how to be left alone for short periods as she bonds very strongly to people and may struggle if left on her own. Pots will be an amazing companion as she settles in and shows off her full character in the home. | RSPCA Birmingham
