Rudy &Theo are a pair of bonded boys and they will NOT be separated. We have had to rely on a vet to age them and he thinks they are between two and three years old. They do have very separate characters, Rudy is very much the little gentleman whilst Theo thinks he is still a puppy who likes to puppy mouth your hand, his fosterer uses a toy to distract him from doing this. Rudy is the smaller of the two at 5kg, Theo is overweight at 9kg although he has lost 1.5kg recently this still needs working on. They will need watchng and feeding separately to ensure Rudy gets his fair share and Theo isn't able to eat both!! They curl up together in the same donut bed even though there is a larger bed nearby. We do believe they had never been outside the property they were born into so everything was quite scary for them and they were very anxious about the world but they are coming on very nicely and are happlily enjoying their walks and there is a lot of sniffing and tiddling going on. These boys need a supportive home who will continue to bring them on with kindness and patience. They don't really want to be left for too long so someone that is home for the majority of time would be ideal. They could live with older, sensible and quiet children who will treat them with respect. We have not been able to cat test them. They could go to a home with other dogs but equally they are a ready made family for someone. Rudy and Theo are lovely boys who endured so much neglect in their early years but have come through this remarkably well thanks to the tireless work put in by their foster families. Rudy and Theo wll bring a huge anount of happiness but in return need love, time and understanding. The boys are fostered in Hartlepool and you must be prepared to travel to meet them there along with all resident family members and any resident dogs/s. They are vaccinated, microchipped and neutered and come with 5 weeks free insurance (if required) Their adoption fee is £1000. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING.
