Denzel & Diego – Bolton DENZEL Male 9 years Smooth haired black and tan miniature (6kg) Neutered DIEGO Male 8 years Smooth haired red miniature (7kg) Neutered Adoption fee £450 Denzel and Diego are a bonded and loving pair. They are warm and affectionate boys who want nothing more than a calm, understanding home where they can feel secure and adored. Denzel is a sweet, affectionate lad who loves belly rubs, gentle fuss and being close to his humans. His favourite place is right by your feet. He enjoys his walks and a good run around, and has a playful side that comes out when he deconstructs his toys. Denzel can be anxious and is often on alert. He doesn’t like loud noises and will squeak when startled or frightened. Diego is equally loving and affectionate, happiest when curled up on a knee or burrowed under blankets. He isn’t overly interested in toys but loves a good game of tug of war with a blanket. Diego enjoys his walks, though he tends to bark at people and dogs, which then sets Denzel off too but with calm reassurance they both settle. Not much is known about the first six months of Diego’s life but since then he has been an anxious boy who can become overwhelmed if approached too quickly, often rolling over and urinating in fear. He is also wary of unfamiliar men, though he does learn to trust with time, patience and gentle affection. Both boys will need back‑to‑basics toilet training. They previously lived in a home where they had constant access to the garden, and since moving to a house where they must be let out, they have struggled and now have frequent accidents indoors and can soil in their crate occasionally or overnight. When left alone they become anxious and howl, so a home where someone is present most of the time is essential. Denzel and Diego are looking for a calm, quiet, adults only home with patient humans who can take things at their pace and help them build trust. They need a secure garden where they can potter, practice their toilet training and feel safe. They thrive on attention and reassurance, so a family who can offer plenty of affection and stability will be ideal. They must be the only dogs in the home, allowing them to be the centre of attention.
