About Flynn

Flynn is now ready for adoption. Here is his foster-mum’s write-up… “Flynn is a gorgeous, friendly boy. He’s good with the majority of dogs and easy to walk. He’s occasionally been reactive but only if the other dog was barking first. He’s extremely playful but his adopters will need to be careful with the types of exercise he does as he’s got arthritis. He will need to stay on his anti-inflammatory medication as well as joint supplements, ideally getting a vet physio on board too. Flynn will need an adult-only home without visiting children as he has issues with social pressure, particularly if in his face. Despite this, he loves new people and is a really social boy. He will need people to be aware of if he wants space. He’s completely comfortable with crating. He’s been neutered whilst in foster and is up to date on his vacs. He is six years old. He travels great in the car, we just have him sat on the back seat and he’s perfectly behaved. He can either be adopted as a single dog or adopted to live with other dogs, I think he’d prefer to have other dogs as he really enjoys hanging around with ours and also loves a good wrestle!” Flynn can be adopted anywhere in the UK as his vet care is complete. He is in foster in Derby.
