Henry, a 17-month-old Jack Russell Terrier, is eagerly awaiting a patient and empathetic forever home. Born within the RSPCA's care, Henry has spent a significant portion of his young life in kennels. This experience has understandably caused him to be somewhat reserved and anxious in unfamiliar situations.

Despite his initial cautiousness, Henry is a remarkably affectionate dog once he forms a bond with someone. However, he does require time and patience to build trust. His nervous disposition means that settling into a new home will likely be a gradual process. Therefore, we're seeking a quiet home environment situated in a peaceful area, minimizing his exposure to overwhelming sights and sounds.

Henry's interactions with other dogs at the centre have been positive, suggesting that he could flourish in a home with another small to medium-sized female dog. A calm canine companion could provide valuable support and reassurance as he adjusts to his new surroundings.

Prospective adopters must be prepared to visit Henry at the Centre multiple times before adoption. These visits are crucial for establishing a bond and building trust with him. We are specifically looking for an adult-only home without visiting children, as Henry has previously displayed some anxiety around children.

Henry's ideal home would be a quiet, adult-only environment with minimal exposure to unfamiliar stimuli. A calm and patient approach is essential for helping him to feel safe and secure. Additionally, the presence of a friendly, well-behaved female dog could significantly ease his transition into a new home.

If you believe you could provide Henry with the loving and understanding home he deserves, and you meet the requirements outlined above, please complete an application form. Henry is a friendly and endearing dog who, with the right support, is sure to bring immense joy to his new family.
