Bob

Handsome Bob is looking for a new companion for adventures, trips to the local café and cosy nights in. He likes to take his time and enjoy the world around him, soaking up all the smells and sights. He is keen to remind any fast mover the beauty of slowing down and finding the joy in the little things, or match the pace of anyone who is already there. Bob is deaf but that does not stop him from showing off his skills, he responds well to his sign language and checks in with his people regularly on walks. Bob is a social boy and is happy to be out and about making friends. He is looking for his perfect forever home where he can settle into the steady, retirement life.

Other Notes

Bob could live with sensible children 8+ providing they give him space when needed. He could potentially live with an adult dog, subject to a successful meet at Mayhew. He could live with a dog confident cat providing care givers are prepared to introduce slowly. Bob is deaf but very responsive to his sign language cues and is not affected by it. He has a grade 2 heart murmur but no treatment is needed for this. He has a mild head bob and has previously had some teeth removed due to dental disease. Bob is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and is up to date with flea & worming treatment. He has also been health checked and behaviourally assessed. Lastly, every dog adopted from us will go home with 4 weeks free pet insurance.
