Adopter Simba

Meet Simba, our loveable tennis ball enthusiast! Simba is a friendly, playful German Shepard Cross who has quickly won over the hearts of everyone he has met during his stay with us. He loves spending time with people and is never happier than when he has a tennis ball in his mouth. Although kennel life was initially a little overwhelming, Simba has settled in beautifully and shown himself to be a fun-loving companion with a gentle nature. Simba is looking for owners with some previous dog experience, ideally with an understanding of his breed types and a commitment to continuing his training. He is a bright, eager boy who loves to learn and responds especially well when his favourite tennis ball is involved. While he can occasionally be strong on lead, he is quick to refocus with calm guidance and consistency. Simba has a lovely history of living successfully with another dog and has continued to show good social skills during his time with us. Although he can feel a little unsure around very playful or overbearing dogs, he communicates appropriately and is happy to disengage when needed. He could happily live with a well-matched canine companion or enjoy life as the centre of attention. He could also potentially live with a dog-savvy cat following careful introductions. Simba has grown up around children and has always been affectionate, gentle and playful with them. He would be well suited to living with sensible primary school-aged children who are confident around dogs and understand when to give him space. Although Simba has previously lived happily without a garden, one would be a great bonus, giving him a secure place to stretch his legs, enjoy a game of fetch and continue his training. He is fully housetrained and has shown he can settle well when left alone for short periods once he has adjusted to his new home. Simba is a wonderful all-round dog with plenty of love to give. With regular exercise, ongoing positive training and lots of opportunities to play, he is sure to make a loyal, affectionate and entertaining companion for his lucky new family.
