Shelby

Shelby is a sweet, affectionate boy with a big heart and a love for human company. He’s always happy to meet new people and thrives in a social environment where he can enjoy cuddles and companionship.

Although Shelby has had some challenging experiences with other dogs in the past, he’s made fantastic progress with his dog interactions during his time at the centre. While he’ll still need to be the only dog in the home for now, his new family will have the opportunity to continue building on the great work already done, using positive, reward-based techniques to help him grow even more confident around other dogs.

He is full of character and charm, loves to play and enjoys his walks. He will make the perfect companion for a family who are active, fun and like adventures.

Shelby is best suited to an adult-only household or one with older teens (15+). While he’s generally good with people of all ages, he can show some resource guarding over very high-value toys (like a beloved squeaky ball). This is easily manageable with guidance and consistency, and we’re happy to offer advice to help with this.

In return, Shelby will reward you with unwavering loyalty, plenty of love, and a joyful presence in your home. He’s a wonderful companion just waiting for the right person or family to give him the stability and care he deserves.

Could you be the one to give Shelby his happy ever after?
