His Story: Found stray 4 yrs ago at around the age of 5. Owned for a few months then passed on to Pub owners where his only exercise was a roof top. They lost their accomodation and tried to rehome him twice, the last time he was found stray and ended up in kennels for 10 days whilst they traced his owners. Passed on to his current fosterer who really doesn't have the right circumstances else would keep.

Salient points: Good with people, dogs and possibly cats. Was overweight now approaching correct weight. Coat poor, but coming right.

Advert: Socks is a Shepherd x Collie about 9 yrs old now and 'mellow'. Socks could write a book. We only know the last 4 chapters and that washes the handkerchiefs. You can see by these pictures exactly what type of dog he is ... a gentle bear.   He is neutered, vax'd and chipped. All sorted just tweaking to do by his forever owners. Having a great time currently with lots of social walks, but needs to find his home as soon as possible due to imminent move.

Socks has reached that stage of life where he doesn't need to prove himself, just happy to 'Be'.  Socks’ fosterer is determined he will lay that head into the lap of his next owner and sigh with relief. After a settling period when Socks has got the sense of place, routine and expectations you'll be able just to move ahead with fun times and that special thrill of being there for a special dog. Some dogs find a crock of Gold towards the end of their journey.

Please visit Sock's individual thread, in Dogs needing homes in our care on this forum to find out more about him and follow his progress.

If you are interested in re-homing please complete our homing questionnaire so we can ensure our dogs are matched and will suit your circumstances/lifestyle.

Socks was met on Tuesday and it is love on all sides. He goes into his new and forever home on Saturday to live with a 'very good' terrier!
