TESS
Tess is a 5 year old, longish haired, black and white Border
Collie bitch who is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.
She is very good with people (including children of all ages)
and interacts appropriately with other dogs. She is an extremely
friendly, active, playful dog.
Unfortunately she had a bad experience when she was younger that
has left her with a compulsion to flee when in open spaces. It
also compels her to bolt through any open door or gate. Once in
flight she can only be stopped by someone directly in front of
her, and she never manages to find her own way back home. She
runs faster than any human. She also tends to lurk near doors
and gates waiting for them to be opened.
Because of this she needs a home with a large secure walled
garden, preferably with another playful dog (probably male as
she can be a bit bossy). It is unlikely that she can live in a
home with children as it is vital that everyone coming and going
fully understands that they have to be aware of where she is
whenever they open an outside door or gate.
Once her new owners understand her body language she can be
allowed off the lead in woodland, but never anywhere that is at
all open such as a field or a beach.
If you think you can

MAISIE
Maise is a friendly 3year old
cairn cross terrier, who has had an unfortunate experience with
young children and therefore we would not expect to home her
with young children.

CODY
Cody is a 4 year old Labrador/Staffie cross. He is not a
large dog – more medium – Springer Spaniel size.
He would be better as an only pet as he does not take kindly to
cats or other dogs.
Cody has a tremendous personality and loves people. He has
boundless energy and needs an active home, with plenty of play
exercise and walks. He is very strong on the lead and needs
training to curtail his enthusiasm. We feel that he is too
strong and boisterous for children, but teenagers would cope
with him.
Cody also needs to be neutered, but this cannot be done at the
moment as he is currently in kennels. B.A.R.R.K. will pay for
the cost of neutering Cody once he is in his new home.
Could you give this handsome young man the home that he so
desperately needs?
If you think you can offer the home that Cody needs please email

or call 01888 544644.
MARMITE
Marmite is 2.5 year old Jack Russell cross. He is a little
bit larger than a Jack Russell, but otherwise very similar.
He is a very lively, playful, friendly dog who likes other dogs
once he knows them, or is off the lead, but can appear
aggressive to them when on the lead. He would probably not come
back if let off the lead in the neighbourhood of rabbits or
other exciting wildlife.
He would be better in a house that did not use a car much as he
screams, throws himself around and tries to demolish any vehicle
from the inside, and can keep this up for at least 30 miles. He
is very keen to get inside a car to perform these activities,
but it is very distracting for the driver.
He likes children, but is probably too lively for children
younger than about 8 years old.
His new home must ensure that he fully understands that his
position in life is at the bottom of the pack.
If you think you can offer the home that Marmite needs please
email
info@barrk.co.uk or call 01888 544644.
