About me

  • Can I live with other dogs? Potentially - Since arriving in our care, Dorito has interacted with both a spaniel and a Labrador. While he is cautious around them, he is comfortable being in the same space as them but tends to mostly ignore them. Dorito would likely thrive best in a home with a calm dog of a similar size.
  • Can I live with teenagers? Yes - In his previous home, Dorito lived with a 13 year old teenager who had been with the family since he was just 5 years old. We’ve learned that Dorito is accustomed to being around small children, and when they visited, he would often bring them a toy to start a game of fetch.
  • Can I live with young children? Yes - Must be dog savvy
  • Do I have any medical issues? Potentially - Dorito has a vet health check booked for today, 18th March. We will update his write up following the appointment. He is currently fully vaccinated. Next vaccination due: 5th February 2027. He is not neutered at this time but we are querying an appointment with the vet.
  • Can I live with cats? Yes - Dorito previously lived with two cats. Please note that we can only accept applications from homes where the cat has had prior experience living with a dog without any issues. Visits from dogs do not qualify.
  • Am I good on the lead? Yes - Dorito is a pleasure to walk
  • What was the reason for my surrender? Due to personal struggles within the home, Dorito's owners could no longer give him the care he needed. It was not a decision they made lightly.
  • What am I like when I travel in a vehicle? Unknown at the moment - Dorito will be travelling to the vets today, 18th March. We will update his write up following the appointment.
