Special Needs Dogs
Some dogs come into our care and have specific homing requirements due to medical or behavioural issues.
These are dogs that have come into our care and are working on a behavioural programme or undergoing a medical treatment prior to being offered for adoption.
Below are the dogs that are looking for 'Special' forever homes.
Chester
Hey my name is Chester, I'm a very friendly lad but I get scared easily. I'm currently working with our behaviourist, on building my confidence and trust in people. I like to have a routine and sometimes panic when things are scary and unknown, I get scared easily as I didn't experience much when I was younger and had some negative encounters. I get very anxious with new things that takes me out of my comfort zone, the lovely people at ECR think I may have OCD.
I am a very athletic boy and love to do zoomies round the garden and play with my toys. I love my licky mat and all the treats I get here at ECR. I need a gentle and patient adult home who will introduce new things gradually at my pace. If you think you could give me my forever home please complete a rehoming questionnaire.
Biscoff
Hi there, my names Biscoff and I'm a real cheeky chap! I can get a little scared of quick hand movements but soon come out of my shell. I'm very nosey and get involved in eveything going on around me. If you love Terriers then your sure to love me! I also had a very bad start in life and need gentle intorductions to new people, especially men.
I'm looking for an active adult experienced terrier home where there is always lots going on, I need to stay on a long line because I love to go off investigating, once my super nose picks up a scent I'm off! A semi rural home would be best for me, as like my friend Buddy, I do get worried by loud noises and traffic. I am super affectionate, love lots of fuss and cuddles and will make you laugh daily with my antics! My favourite trick is to distract you with some mischief and then slurp your cuppa! A rural home would be best and a lovely secure garden with at least a 6ft fence with gravel boards. If you think i'm lovely please complete a rehoming questionnaire.
Buddy
Hello, my name is Buddy B. I had a rather sad start in life which has left me extremely anxious in new situations and around new people, especially me. Once I know you, I am the most loveable boy and would really like a lady owner I could share the sofa with for cuddles.
I've been at HQ for several years now and my confidence has grown but I am still very wary of men. I enjoy the company of other dogs and could live with another well matched companion. My favourite hobby is sitting with you for cuddles and I'm more than happy to snuggle up on the sofa. All true terrier lovers will be smitten with me, my antics will make you smile! I currently have a strict routine and this has helped with my separation anxiety and I'm happy to chill in bed with a chew and I enjoy a good snooze in the morning and afternoon.
I am very noise phobic, so would suit a very calm and quiet home in a semi rural area as I would not cope with a busy suburban park with lots of people. I love a good country walk and I am used to a long line and will not be one that can be let off initially as I might get spooked, so need a secure field for any off lead running. I'm still a work in progress and any transition to a new home will need to be done gradually, please give me a chance, I have waited so long for the right mum to come along. If you think its a match please complete a rehoming form.
Roxy
Hello, my name is Roxy, I am a senior Stafford girlie and due to an old injury have had to have my rear leg removed but I can still manage to get on the sofa etc. I am in longterm foster with Vicky and my lovely foster family, am very settled and my most favourite hobby is snuggling on the settee having cuddles.
