Darren

Meet this handsome boy Darren! Darren came into our care as a stray so we don’t have any background information about him. He is looking for a very special home with someone who truly understands the unique personality and characteristics of the Shar – Pei Breed. Like many Shar -Pei’s, he is an independent character who enjoys doing things on his own terms. He isn’t fussed about being handled, fussed over or touched and prefers his own personal space respected. He needs an understanding owner who can recognise his body language, respect his boundaries and give him time to build trust at his own pace. Whilst he may not be a cuddly, affectionate dog, he has his own personality and charm. He really enjoys getting out on walks and it’s great to see him perk up with excitement as soon as he spots the lead, it certainly is the highlight of his day! He is strong on the lead and does pull a lot so he will need more work in this area. He has socialised well with dogs out on walks and has shown that he can be comfortable out in  a group. Darren needs an experienced adult only home, with no visiting children. Darren is best suited to being the only dog in the home so he can have his own space. No cats for Darren. Please do not apply for a dog if you have a holiday within the next 3 months. *Applicants that are successful will be provided with further information on each dog to the best of the charity’s knowledge
