About Garfunkel

Meet Garfunkel!  Garfunkel is looking for a special home to call his own!  He can be a little nervous and unsure of new people and situations at first, but give him a little time and his personality soon begins to shine through.  Once he gets to know you, he’s a very friendly, playful and excitable boy who loves to have fun and show off his cheeky character.  He can certainly make himself heard and is quite the vocal boy in his kennel, so you’ll never be in any doubt when Garfunkel wants to say something.  Garfunkel has a few funny little quirks too.  He enjoys having a good rag of his blankets, loves to chew his toys and likes to rearrange his water bowl to keep himself entertained.  He can also be worried by the cleaning equipment when staff are cleaning his kennel, so they have to be mindful of this and give him the reassurance and space he needs.  Garfunkel would benefit from an understanding home that will allow him time to settle in and get comfortable at his own pace.  Previous Bulldog experience would be an advantage, as someone familiar with the breed will be better placed to understand his needs and character.  Underneath his initially unsure exterior is a friendly, fun-loving and playful boy with lots of personality.  He will need continued training and socialisation and would benefit from a private secure garden. Garfunkel has interacted with other dogs while in our care and isn’t interested in then so we feel he would be best rehomed as the only dog in the home where he can get 100% of the love and attention. No cats for him. As Garfunkel came into the home as a stray, we have no previous history on him so would prefer any children in the home to be 14+ years. If you have a holiday booked in the next 3 months, please wait until you return to apply for a dog. *Applications that are successful will be provided with further information on each dog to the best of the charity’s knowledge.
