Elvis and Dora – welsh terrier and airedale looking for a home

Please meet Elvis and Dora.

Elvis welsh terrier is 12 years old. He’s still very young at heart, bounces around when it feed time, loves nothing more than cuddling up with you of an evening. Elvis loves meeting people, but can be a little grumpy around other dogs. From a youngster he’s had colitis, so his food is strictly hypoallergenic and with this he has no problems at all. He loves chicken and anything else that he’s “allowed” to have. Elvis lives with Dora – the 9 year old airedale, and they are a bonded pair and we are looking to rehome them together.

Elvis likes to sleep a lot now and are happy spending lazy days in the sun and rainy days listening to the rain in their beds. He lives wonderfully well with Dora and they really are happy in each other’s company. Dora has all the wonderful traits of the breed. She is friendly, loves people and sharing their lives with them. She loves her walks and being your companion on car trips.

Their owner has had a drastic change of circumstances – and sadly they find themselves in need of a new home late in life. They are both healthy dogs, just need a compassionate and caring retirement home.

Children: 10+ – no cats or small furries. They are in foster in Wales.

One Year On: Zorro Airedale Terrier

Zorro’s human, Deb writes… “I saw a Terrier SOS image of an Airedale Terrier needing a home. He looked so much like my Airedale girl Jansie who had sadly died 3 years ago that the whole family agreed that Azzaro looked like our kind of Airedale, so we applied for him.

We renamed him Zorro as it was easier to say and we are still learning about his funny ways each day. He hadn’t been mistreated and had obviously been loved and given some training in the past. He was obsessed with food though and we think he had some hungry times in his former life. We are hoping for a few more years with him as he has lots of energy and loves to play. He is just one of the gang now, it feels like he has always been here.

We are so delighted to have an Airedale back in our lives and feel very privileged to have been entrusted with Zorro. We all adore him, so thanks Terrier SOS!”
