This is Titch, an adorable, 8 year old, neutered British Bulldog looking for his forever home. He came into the care of Lea Valley Dog Rescue through no fault of his own and is currently being fostered in Newbury, Berkshire.
Titch is a loving, affectionate boy who adores everyone he meets. His favourite place to be is cuddled up on the sofa with his people. At 21kg, he is convinced he is a lapdog, and if he cannot quite fit on your lap, he will simply lean his whole body into you to get as close as possible. In foster, Titch lives with an 11 year old child, whom he gets on with fantastically. Titch has been happy being left for up to three to four hours.
Titch is a comical little character and very much a typical Bulldog. He can be a little stubborn at times, but he is also extremely treat-motivated and very capable of learning. Since coming into foster, he has made great progress. He would bark for attention or food when he first arrived, but with time, patience, and consistency, this has greatly improved. His new family will need to continue this training to help him keep progressing. He already knows sit, come, wait, and paw.
Titch has shown himself to be very good with other dogs when out and about, no matter their size or temperament. If another dog wants to play, Titch is happy to join in, and if not, he is polite and respectful. Titch has never lived with cats and he does enjoy chasing birds and wild rabbits out of the garden, so he would be best suited to a home without cats or other small furry animals. He may be able to live with another compatible dog, subject to successful introductions.
Titch is easy to walk on the lead, does not pull and loves exploring the countryside and having a good sniff around. He is a bit of a fair-weather walker, though, and can sometimes need a little encouragement to head out when it is cold or raining. He is a lovely natured boy who is also very tolerant of baths and nail trims. Titch has no known medical conditions.
Please note: For home checking purposes, the Rescue would prefer potential adopters to live within London’s Home Counties or within 30 miles of his foster home in Newbury, West Berkshire.
