Dog of the Week: The latest dogs looking for their forever homes from Newbury Dogs Trust

For this week’s Dog of the Week we have a slightly different story to bring you.

We have three-year-old cane corso, Ebony, who is looking for her forever home after spending more than 90 days at Dogs Trust Newbury.

Ebony is looking for a family who can build her confidence as she can be a little unsure of new people initially, but she also builds bonds quite quickly, especially if food is involved.

She is extremely clever and loves learning new tricks, from an emergency stop, to touching targets.

Dogs Trust Newbury are searching for understanding adopters who are happy to give Ebony time to settle in and build relationships.

She would like a home that is in a quieter area and will need a secure and private garden to explore. She could live alongside livestock but will need to be the only dog in the household, although she enjoys dog-walking with canine friends, while out and about.

Ebony could live with young adults who are able to cope with her size and boisterous nature, as she’s described as “a big puppy at heart”

Charlotte Smith, canine carer at Dogs Trust Newbury who has worked with Ebony, said: "Ebony is a bouncy bundle of love who maybe doesn’t quite realise how big she is but will find new ways to make you laugh daily.

“I have worked for Dogs Trust for twenty-six years, and have seen many changes during this time. I enjoy being able to go on offsite walks through the woods or to the stream, as these walks are very enriching and full of lots of different scents which a lot of our dogs really enjoy.

“The main thing I love about my job is working with a variety of dogs and helping them on their journey to be rehomed. Hopefully Ebony will find her forever home soon.”

Thanks to support from players of People’s Postcode Lottery over the past ten years, Dogs Trust has given over 100,000 dogs in its care everything they need until they head to their forever home.
