๐ฌ๐ง๐พ UK SURRENDER โ An Unexpected Call on a Sunday... ๐พ๐ฌ๐ง
๐๐ถ ARLO โ Springer Spaniel Puppy Boy Looking for a Fresh Start ๐ถ๐
๐ URGENT: LOOKING FOR FOSTER OR FOSTER-TO-ADOPT ๐
๐ RBU, post-adoption support, and 4 weeks free PetPlan insurance provided upon adoption
๐๐ข Another heartbreaking storyโฆ Today, Sunday, I went into town with my family. And then came the call: "Are you a dog rescue? Do you take dogs for rehoming?"
โ "Well... yes, we do, but...""Oh great! Iโm near you. Can you please take a dog from us?"
Just like that. No warning. No arrangement. No second thought. I rushed back home and this is how little Arlo entered our care.
๐ถ Arlo is a young Springer Spaniel pup, born in August 2024 (9 months old). Too much, too active too bouncy for family....
He desperate need of a home that can give him what every puppy deservesโtime, patience, consistency and love.

๐น SIZE: lower-medium (Springer type)

โญ CHARACTER HIGHLIGHTS: First shy, Energetic, Affectionate, Puppyish, Needs Structure
๐ DOGS: good but needs time to settle, as shy at start but then wants to play
๐ฑ CATS: Untested
๐ถ CHILDREN: Good with older children (has lived with a 7-year-old)
Rescue Story:
๐ถ Arlo was surrendered on a Sunday afternoon, with no notice and no preparation. His former family simply didnโt have the time or experience to manage a high-energy young spaniel. His lack of house-training, hyper behaviour, and need for longer walks were too much for a single parent working full time. So this bouncy little lad was handed overโconfused, timid, submissive, and unaware his whole life was about to change.
That's what family said about him: โI work a lot so donโt really have the time to take him on long walks. Heโs very hyper all the time โ you canโt sit down without him jumping all over the place. And Iโm struggling to house train him.โ โArlo seems fine around other dogs. Heโs not been around cats or other small animals to know. And heโs been left alone while I go to work and seems okay. He sits when told but only really in the house โ not so much outside or when crossing roads. He likes balls โ they have to be hard, otherwise he chews them โ and soft teddies.โ
Despite his challenges, Arlo is a friendly, trainable boy who just hasn't had the right structure or attention. He has been living in a home with a garden and sleeping in the kitchen. He is not yet house-trained but has no separation anxiety and no history of biting. He's microchipped and vaccinated, and we will follow up with vet records.
Ideal Family:
Arlo needs an active, experienced home with the time and patience to help him develop. A totally secure garden is a must, and ideally someone who understands breeds like Spaniels. A family with older, dog-savvy older children or another balanced dog to learn from would be wonderful. He is not suited to a busy, full-time working household or first-time owners.
Arlo is a young dog who hasnโt been given the tools he needs to succeed. With the right home, consistent guidance, and lots of love, this sweet Springer boy can grow into a brilliant family companion. Donโt let this joyful spirit fadeโhelp him start over.
Health Information:
๐ถArlo is healthy. He is microchipped and vaccinated. No known medical issues.
