Spencer

Gender - Male

Age - One year old

Breed - Whippet crossbreed

Colour - Brindle

Spencer is described as a friendly and lively dog who was initially a bit shy but soon perked up.

He will need training and an active family who can keep up with him as he can easily become bored.

The RSPCA adds: "Spencer has been sociable with other dogs while he has been with us but can be a little vocal and over-enthusiastic when he sees other dogs out on walks.  This just seems to be enthusiasm to say hello but his new owner will need to be prepared to manage this."

He is looking for an adult-only home with a secure garden, and could potentially live with another dog after successful introductions.

Nyla

Colour - Black

Nyla came into the care of the RSPCA via an inspector from a multi-cat household.

She is described as being quite playful "often batting a ball around in her pen or climbing on top of the pens if you are not looking".

Nyla knows how to her her catflap so would benefit from having a secure garden to explore.

Additionally, she would prefer to be the only pet in the household and could live with older cat-experienced children.

Goose

Gender - Male

Goose came into the care of the RSPCA in February due to his owner having too many rabbits to look after.

He is described as having a "sweet nature" and can be stroked although he isn't keen on being picked up.

The RSPCA adds: "Goose is looking for a spayed & vaccinated female rabbit to keep him company. He has only recently been neutered so is still getting there in terms of using his trays, but in time he is getting cleaner."
