RIPLEY

Gender: Male

Age: 5 - 6 years

Neutered: Yes

Rippers here. Yes as you can see I’m back, it turns out my anxieties in the home are a little too much for a family home. I’m very jumpy around unusual sounds and this means I have a tendency to ‘bite out’. This doesn’t mean I’m not loving and I don’t like my homely comforts, like my own bed or a sofa of my own, but I’m told I’m better suited to it in a space of my own like a nice outdoor kennel. That way I don’t get spooked too easily, and hurt myself or anyone else. Although my friends in rescue are helping me try and get over this with some training. After 5 years of racing and spending all my time in kennels, it seems I’m more accustomed to life with more access to the outside. I like my walks and although I’m anxious in the home, I love my walks with furry friends, not too small a furries though- I did use to like to chase them, although on my walks I tend to mind my own business and just want lots of hugs and attention. I’m told I have a very waggy tail! So if you are my special home and can offer me what i need then Please get in touch. I have lots of hugs waiting for you!

Adoption Process
Step 1: If you see a dog you like then please make an appointment to meet them by following the link on our Web site : www.roystonanimalwelfare.org/rescue
Step 2: Once you have met and decided to adopt a dog a home check will be arranged.
Step 3: Once your home check has passed, the adoption is completed, and you can pick up your new family member!
Our adoption fee is £200 for dogs. They are Vaccinated, Microchipped, Neutered, Flea, and Wormed and also come with 4 weeks of free insurance
If any of the above are not complete upon adoption vouchers covering their full cost will be issued. The adoption fee covers some of these vet costs - the rest is covered by fundraising.
A part of your garden must be enclosed and secure. A minimum 4ft fence/wall is required, depending on the size and nature of the dog this may be higher. Dogs can not be left on their own for more than 5 hours on a regular basis. Dogs must not be left to sleep outside at night or during the winter. If we know a dog is friendly with cats this will be specified. If this is not specified, the dog will not be re-homed with cats.
