Goonie, Brindle & White Staffie, DOB 10.99

Goonie, Brindle & White Staffie, DOB 10.99



His story Owned since a puppy. Now living with the owner's daughter and partner. Being left long hours and needs more active focus.

Salient points Goonie is in good health. Active 9 year old used to a rural setting. Good being left. Good mixer; over excited indoors with visitors. Well cared for.

Advert Goonie as been a great friend and companion to his family. He has enjoyed many holidays in the UK and loves to travel in a car. he mixes well with dogs and people. Delighted to be out on his walks and off the lead away from roads. Whilst he can be left he has had too much of it lately and is now looking for a family wanting to centre their lives around his needs. Tuned into walks not people or other dogs outside with selective hearing when suits. Goonie is a character and a half! Currently living in Yorkshire.

Goonie is seeking companionship and would like to entertain! He also is a dog who would rather be on the bed with you at night than somewhere in the utility room! He likes his comforts, has always been integral to his family and you can see why. Neutered, vax'd and chipped. Goonie is up for love, up for fun and oh what great laughs you would have together.

Aw what a lovely old boy

Goonie is now with us in kennels. He is looking for a foster or forever home.

These aren't very good photos - we promise to do better next time!

Ah bless him what a shame they couldn't have kept him

another old boy hes going to make someone very happy

Hope he finds somewhere soon, is he still in Yorkshire?

Yes, is he still in Yorkshire?

Hi there

No Goonie is now with us and in kennels in Farnham. He is looking for a foster or forever home.

Sorry, I'm too far away otherwise I would have honestly considered him

It pains me to see the old dogs in kennels . Sometimes i think owners really need to wake up to their reponsiblility and not back out of it. You can't give a child up at 9 years old !!!

I do hope you find a home for this old boy home and that he adapts well to his new fmaily as it is always harder for the older dogs

Believe me, we will pull out all the stop to find him a dream home!

i know you will but it is hard to see the oldies in rescue

have to say i have little to no patience for those people that want to rehome their oldies as IMO no excuse works for wanting to rehome a dog that has given you the best years of its life !!

An update on Goonie from one of our lovely volunteer kennel walkers:

Today Goonie took a real shine to my mum (and she to him), so mum did all the walking. He kept looking back at her and grinning. I was starting to get jealous! He had a real spring in his step.

Again, he didn't really want to go back into his kennel - this time it was because he didn't want my mum to go!

Poor boy, he should not be in kennels at his time of life. |Lets hope he gets a new home to spend Christmas

any news on this lovely boy?
