Bunny

If you are interested in adopting Bunny, you will need to register your interest by filling in and returning one of our pre-adoption questionnaires.

CLICK HERE FOR OUR PRE-ADOPTION QUESTIONNAIRE

If you live in rented accommodation, in addition to the completed pre-adoption questionnaire please include written permission from your landlord or housing authority, confirming that they are happy for you to keep a dog in the property. If you already have a dog/s the permission must state the number of dogs allowed – without this we cannot include the application.

Completed application forms and landlord permissions if applicable must be emailed to nicola@stokenchurchdogrescue.org.uk with ‘Bunny in the subject bar or hand your completed form into reception.

Emails sent to other addresses will not be considered.

**Bunny will not be available for viewing until she meet her potential adopter**

Selection process:

A Dog Carer will assess each potential adopter on the information provided on the pre-adoption form and we will then match you with a puppy based on their personality. 

The suitable applicants will then be invited in at an appointed time to discuss the needs of the puppy further.   

The deadline for applications is Wednesday 14th May at 16:00 and the successful candidates will be contacted within 24 hours. Applications received after this time will not be included. The successful candidate must be available to meet for the first time Friday 16th or Sunday 18th May at 13:30

Please note due to the increase in applications for all dogs and limited resource we will not contact unsuccessful candidates or give individual feedback.

MORE ABOUT BUNNY

Bunny is a confident and playful girl who has quickly settled into her kennel routine. She loves meeting new people and is always happy to see her carers. With her friendly personality, she’s made friends with everyone she encounters!

Personality - Bunny is a typical puppy with a love for playtime and toys. She enjoys chasing and biting her toys, but she’s still learning not to use her teeth on people. This means she’s quite mouthy, and new owners should be prepared to work on this behaviour to ensure it doesn’t continue into adulthood.

Other Dogs - Bunny does display some barrier frustration when on a lead, which can lead to reactive behaviours. While she is friendly, she can also be rude and pushy towards other dogs which most dogs do not like. With proper management, she could live with another well-balanced and tolerant dog, but her owners will need to advocate for their other pet when her excitement becomes too much. It's essential to focus on training to address her barrier reactivity as soon as possible to prevent these behaviours from escalating into adulthood.

Training and Exercise - She needs an owner who can provide basic training, including toilet training, and focus on socialization to help her become more adaptable to different environments. This little girl has bundles of energy and needs someone who can meet her physical and mental needs. Despite being small and being referred to by people as a “teddy bear”, Bunny is not one to lounge on a lap all day; she’s ready for adventure! With the right direction, she could even excel in activities like agility.

Type of Home - Bunny could live with children aged 11 years and over, but it’s important for them to be confident with her mouthy behaviour. Bunny is looking for a dedicated owner who can guide her through her puppyhood. While previous dog experience is beneficial, first-time owners who are willing to research canine care and training are encouraged to apply.
