Original Referral information : We work with our dogs & often reveal a different picture & positive skills as they build trust. 16.04.18: Hi Lynne, So sorry for the delay, The phone has updated and checked the way the emails come in.
Yes I'm sure we have a good few terriers. I'm at the pounds today and also the dog warden asked me about a few too.
Is the space still available for the Am bull boy? he is the one most at threat.

Had fun meeting new arrival Scruffy today, he is tiny, very friendly & busy out and about + his climbing skills are impressive!
Re: Scruffy Terrier x DofB ?2013 Gatwick Kenns
Scruffy is a little angel - a very easy terrier. When I entered his kennel, he was holding on to the door with all 4 paws.....very impressive!! He came over and climbed up to my waist - how brilliant - I didn’t have to bend down to get his lead....thanks scruffy He walks well but much preferred being cuddled. I didn’t want to put him back so we went and sat on the bench, watching the comings and goings of the kennels. Not once did he react to anything - he just sat on my lap enjoying being stroked. Scruffy is a super boy, very friendly and affectionate. X

Wow what a wonderful little dog, so friendly and easy to walk. We walked with Collette and Maisy in the woods. He looks like he is smiling all the time, you cannot help but smile when you are out with Scruffy. Great with other dogs and people friendly. He loves to have lots of cuddles, he has got so much love to give. He so deserves his forever home.

Scruffy is a total sweetheart. No edge to him, just a well balanced, easy little terrier. He doesn’t always walk forward though - he keeps running back for cuddles, bless him. We passed two huuuuuge horses today - didn’t bat an eyelid. I was more in awe of their size than he was!! Scruffy needed a little reassurance when a cyclist whizzed past and spooked him but was fine after a little stroke. When we reached the entrance to the woods it was quite dark, he was reluctant to walk through. A few kind words, a little cuddle and his bravery was restored.....and then there was no stopping him. Trees were sniffed, bushes investigated, grass was chewed. After our walk we went and sat down - he very gently nibbled my earlobes. He loves to be cuddled and nestled his head under my chin. I touched every part of Scruffy today, paws, tummy, ears, tail, everything. No problems at all. Scruffy is an all round good boy - very easy for a terrier. Xx.
