Find a home for a Dogs Trust dog this month
Help us to find a home for a wonderful Dogs Trust dog this September


Dave is a lively 2 year-old Bassett Hound cross who is looking for a new home to settle down in. With wonderful social skills, Dave is a charmer who loves to play with other dogs and his toys.
Dave would need an adult-only home and ideally one that is situated in a more rural setting. He has learnt some basic commands and the Dogs Trust team have found that, as he loves his food, treats will help him improve! He will need some help in the home with visitors which the Dogs Trust training and behaviour adviser will be able to provide support with, and once settled he should be able to be left for a few hours.
If you think you can help the lovely Dave, please call 01227 792505 or visit him at Radfall Road, Chestfield, Nr Whitstable, Kent, CT5 3ER. * Subscribe to Country Life; Country Life on Ipad
