RESCUE IS BEST R ESCUE IS BEST
We have teamed up with Battersea Dog and Cats home - Brands Hatch to bring you regular listings of animals requiring rehoming. Name: Sharky; Breed: Border Collie; Sex: Male; Age: 1 years 1 months; Centre: Brands Hatch; Reference: 381344 Sharky has an adorable overbite chin and lovely nature, he’s now looking for his family to love and care for him. Sharky is looking owners who will continue with his training and give him the reassurance he needs to mature him into a confident boy. Sharky has shown some behaviours around strangers which Battersea has been giving him training on so that he can make the right choices. Owners will need to dedicate time to help with these behaviours. His family must have some experience and knowledge. Sharky is intelligent and is still very young so he enjoys training and is always keen to say hello and play with his tennis balls. Battersea has introduced a new rehoming process to take into account social distancing rules. As a result, the charity is prioritising existing rehoming applications and those who have a home set up that enables safe and social distancing delivery.

So much for home advantage...
