Super Spencer is a 10yr old Patterdale Terrier who Rescue Remedies, near Gatwick, West Sussex are hoping to find his forever home. He has been in rescue for the last 5 years and now needs a home of his own.
Looking younger than his years, Spencer grew up as the only pet in his previous home, and so needs his forever home to be pet free. He still has tons of energy and loads of personality and will make the most wonderful companion for an equally active person. He has the character of a typical terrier and is full of fun.
Spencer arrived in rescue as a reserved and standoffish boy but is now a very different dog, thanks to the love and commitment from the staff and volunteers. He now greets everyone with a wagging tail, barks excitedly and seeks out love and cuddles from those he trusts.
Although he is very loving he isn’t keen on being handled by people he doesn’t know. He is though very gentle, and not dog or people reactive. Spencer enjoys his walks and would love to go on lovely days out with you. He adores water and when he hears its “swimmy” time he trots even faster as he know what’s coming ! He loves fetching sticks and then drying off by rolling in the grass.
He happily carries his tennis ball or squeaky toy on walks and enjoys playing in the paddock.
Spencer walks well on a lead and enjoys the company of calm doggy friends. He would like a child free home and would like his human(s) to have terrier experience, who are patient and willing to work with him to build on his confidence and setting boundaries. He travels well in a crate in the car, but as he doesn’t at present make many car journeys, he is a little nervous, but it is thought that with more little trips he will get more used to car travel.
