Meet Ryder

Ryder is a very special 9 years and 11 months old Welsh Terrier who is now looking for his forever home.

This lovely boy really is a true gentleman. He has a calm, easy-going nature and takes most things in his stride. Vet visits? No problem. Bath time? No problem. Ryder is the sort of dog who quietly gets on with life without making a fuss.

He enjoys his walks at a leisurely pace, taking the world in around him, and he isn’t particularly bothered by other dogs. Ryder is also a very affectionate boy who loves being around his people and will happily enjoy some gentle fuss and attention.

But don’t let his age fool you — Ryder definitely still has a playful side! Soft toys are a particular favourite, and it’s wonderful to see his cheeky character come out when he decides it’s time for a little fun.

Ryder is now looking for a quiet, peaceful home where he can enjoy the simple things in life and take each day at his own pace. Somewhere he can feel safe, settled and loved, with a family who will appreciate what a wonderful, gentle companion he is.

Although we’ve had zero issues with Ryder around other dogs, we feel he would probably be happiest as the only dog in the home, where he can have all the attention to himself and enjoy a relaxed retirement.

Ryder may not be looking for a life of adventure, but he has so much love to give. What he deserves now is a peaceful home, a comfy bed, plenty of affection, the occasional soft toy to play with, and someone who will cherish him for the lovely old gentleman he is.

Could you be the forever home Ryder has been waiting for?
