Our snow queen, Jan 🤍🤩 Lovely Jan is a 3 year old American bulldog, she has come into us through no fault of her own, her family had an unfortunate change in circumstances. Jan is a sensitive girl initially quite shy and withdrawn, she can be wary and reactive to new people however it doesn’t take long at all to make friends with Jan, she’s a proper foodie! She loves cheese and sausages, as soon as she has taken a couple of treats she is your best pal. She is very playful and outgoing when having free time in the compound, typical young bullie, bouncing around throwing toys for herself. She’s a real character and would make a fantastic companion for the right person. She does seem to favour women but has come around to the company of the lads. She needs a strong and confident owner willing to socialise her and train her on the lead. Jan is used to being left alone for 2-4 hours per day and is a real couch potato and cuddle monster 💕 If you would like to apply to adopt Jan please fill in the application form below. Jan is looking for an American bulldog experienced owner who is strong and capable of walking a large dog. https://carlalaneanimalsinneed.co.uk/adoption-questionnaire/

Zeke is a handsome lurcher crossbreed, he is roughly 2 years old. Zeke is a happy go lucky boy, he enjoys a fuss of everyone he meets, he loves nothing more than long walks and having a run in an enclosed field so he can run his long legs off. 🥰 Zeke can be a strong boy on walks so an owner with experience of larger breeds would be ideal, Zeke has not had alot of socialisation around other animals so will need some further training in a home.

Luna is an 18 month old Catahoula leopard crossbreed. She was recently adopted but unfortunately it didn’t work out for her this time, below is some extra information on Luna ready for her new home. 🏡 No negative comments please. Luna was not destructive only scratched the door by jumping at it as she does know how to open them so deffo a latch or bolt is needed 🤣 she barked and howled the first 2 times she was on her own but soon realised we wouldn’t be too long and we would be back. Bed time she knew was a time to sleep and not play which was lovely as she just slept as long as we would. Never did anything in the house at all she is an absolute dream and I hope she does find someone who can give her what she deserves. She does get scared of people coming into the house I’m not sure why this was but she would cower and walk slowly up to people until she realised it was fine then she would jump and give kisses. If you can offer Luna a home she would suit a 1-2 person adult home with no other Pets. https://carlalaneanimalsinneed.co.uk/adoption-questionnaire/
