Poodle cross · 7 years · Male
Co. Down, Northern Ireland
Meet Albie Albie is a little Poodle cross, around 6–7 years old, and this wee man has really stolen our hearts. Albie is a quiet little soul. Once he gets to know you, he is loving and affectionate, but he needs time, patience and someone who understands that trust doesn’t happen overnight. Albie was used on a commercial breeding farm, and sadly he never had the life he should have had. He missed out on so much of what every dog deserves. But over the last couple of weeks, we have watched this little man begin to flourish. His coat has been shaved, he has been neutered, had a much-needed dental, and he also arrived with entropion, a painful condition affecting the eyelids. We have had this surgically treated, and he is now feeling so much more comfortable. And slowly, we are seeing Albie emerge. He is looking for a quiet, settled home with someone who will give him the time and space he needs to find his feet. A really secure garden is essential. Another friendly dog in the home is vital for Albie. Children must be 14+ and able to understand that Albie needs patience and space. He may take a little while to come around, but once he does, we know there is so much love waiting to come out of this little dog. Albie has missed out on so much in his life. Now we want to find him the home where he can finally learn just how wonderful life can be. If you think you could offer Albie the quiet, patient and loving home he deserves, please get in touch with Almost Home Animal Rescue NI.
