Meet Popeye!  If you’re looking for a fun-loving, confident little character who will keep you on your toes, then look no further than Popeye!  He is a super friendly boy with a big personality and plenty of energy to burn.  He’s extremely giddy and excitable, always keen to be involved in whatever is going on around him.  He’s definitely not one to sit quietly on the side lines!  He can get a little overexcited and will jump up for attention, so he’ll benefit from someone who can help him channel all that enthusiasm.  Popeye absolutely loves his walks and is good on the lead, making him a great companion for getting out and about.  He’s not particularly bothered about toys – he’d much rather be part of the action and see what’s happening around him.  He can be quite vocal in his kennel when he wants attention, but don’t let that put you off.  He’s a busy boy with lots to say.  Popeye does have an old injury to his left eye, which means he only has partial vision in it.  Our vet has assessed him and advised that removal isn’t necessary, as it’s not causing him any pain or discomfort.  Now, there’s one thing you should know about Popeye – he’s an escape artist.  This clever lad is always looking for an opportunity, so he’ll need a secure home and garden, with adopters who are mindful of his adventurous nature and make sure he can’t go wandering off on his own.  Popeye is a lively, affectionate and entertaining little man who has so much love and personality to offer.  He’ll need a home that can keep up with his energy, give him plenty of attention and provide the guidance and security he needs.  Previous breed experience would be an advantage.

Popeye has socialised well with other dogs while in our care, although he does tend to be full-on with them.  We do feel he could potentially live with another dog that would tolerate his boisterous way of playing, following a successful meet and greet (must be neutered).

As Popeye 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.

No cats for Popeye.

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.
