Shadow is a 3 year old Labrador x English Pointer who we are helping to find a new home due to a change in circumstances.  He has been with his current owner since he was 14 weeks old and is fully house trained and can be left alone for a reasonable amount of time once settled.  He is  quite a large/strong lad but very affectionate towards people and would be suitable to live with teenage children.  Although he loves his food (a bonus when training) he is not protective of it.  Due to the combination of breeds in his makeup he does need an owner who is experienced with working dogs who can give him the exercise/stimulation he craves.  He would be best suited to a rural home with a garden and an owner with the time and patience to continue his training.  He does know his basic commands but work is needed on his recall as he gets easily distracted by wildlife!  His vaccinations will need to be restarted and he will need castrating once settled in a new home, both costs being covered by RDR.  If you think you could offer this young boy the life he deserves in a loving active home please email:  chair@ryedaledogrescue.org.uk in the first instance including a contact telephone number.   Any rehoming would be subject to a homecheck by RDR. 

Not long to go before our auction on Saturday 7th November and we’re open for advanced bids.

Dickens is a very handsome 9 month old Basset Hound who is looking for a new home due to a change in circumstances and through no fault of his own.  He is KC registered and fully vaccinated and has been with his current owner since he was a very young puppy.  He is friendly with other dogs and walks well on the lead.  Although he has been around children and always been totally fine he is quite a large young man so any resident children would need to be over 7 and preferably used to living with a dog(s).  Experience of the breed or similar would be an advantage but not essential and a loving environment where he would be the centre of someones world would be far more important.  He would need to be neutered at Ryedale Vets when age appropriate the cost of which would be covered by Ryedale Dog Rescue.  Please make initial enquiries to:  chair@ryedaledogrescue.org.uk.  Any rehoming would be subject to a homecheck by RDR.
