🐾 Meet Biff - 9-month-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier Cross 

Biff is a young, high-energy Staffy who has arrived full of enthusiasm and very little guidance. At just 9 months old, he is still very much a puppy and currently needs a committed, experienced foster home to help him learn the basics and settle into a routine.

🐶 About Biff (what we know so far) 

Biff is incredibly excitable and full-on when you enter his space. He greets with his whole body and quickly becomes overstimulated, which currently results in jumping, grabbing, and air snapping when he doesn’t know how to manage his excitement.

This is not aggression, but an over-aroused adolescent who has missed out on boundaries and training.

🦮 Current Challenges

Biff is at the very beginning of his learning journey:

* No understanding of lead walking

* Sees leads and harnesses as toys

* Can grab clothing, lead, or arms when overstimulated

* Struggles to regulate his excitement

He will need structure, consistency, and guidance to help him learn appropriate behaviours.

🏡 Home Requirements (so far) 

Due to his current behaviour and needs, Biff is so far looking at the below due to him coming from the pound. 

* No other dogs at this time

* Children aged 16+ only

* Confident, experienced bull breed owner

* Someone able to provide structure, boundaries, and ongoing training

❤️ Why Biff?

Biff is a blank canvas. Underneath the chaos is a bright, engaging young dog who wants interaction but simply hasn’t been shown how to behave yet.

With the right home, he has huge potential to develop into a well-rounded, loyal companion.

📍 Summary:

Biff is a typical under-guided adolescent Staffy – energetic, mouthy, and easily overstimulated, but full of potential in the right hands. He urgently needs a committed foster home to help set him up for success.

Currently in Essex - please message us for an enquiry form to show early interest.

🩷 Meet Roo 🩷

A young pup, under a year old
Long-legged Lurcher Cross
Training ongoing

Must live with another dog (or dogs)

Roo is a beautiful young Lurcher Cross with the sweetest nature and a whole lifetime of adventures ahead of her.

When Roo first arrived with us, she was an incredibly shy little girl who found the world quite overwhelming. Thanks to the love, patience and guidance of her foster family and their wonderful pack of dogs, she has started to blossom and grow in confidence every day.

Roo has thrived living with other dogs, learning from them and taking comfort in their company, so she will need a home with at least one confident, friendly resident dog to help her continue building her confidence.

Although we don’t know exactly what Roo experienced before coming into our care, her behaviour suggests she had a very difficult start in life. She can be extremely sensitive to raised voices and sudden movements, so she needs a family who understands that trust is earned through patience, kindness and gentle reassurance. Roo will not respond well to shouting or harsh handling—she deserves a home where she feels safe, understood and loved while she continues to build her confidence.

Like any puppy, Roo is still learning. Her training is ongoing, and she will need a committed family who are prepared to continue teaching her everything she needs to become a happy, well-rounded adult dog using positive reinforcement.

Roo can become destructive if left alone for too long. We believe this stems from a lack of positive human interaction and companionship in her previous home, meaning being left can be unsettling for her. As she continues to build confidence and learn that she is safe, this is something her new family will need to manage with patience, gradual training and understanding. She would thrive in a home where someone is around for much of the day while she settles.

Roo is looking for an active home that understands the needs of a young Lurcher and can provide plenty of physical exercise, mental stimulation and opportunities to explore the world at her own pace.

If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion and have the time, patience and dedication to help a young dog overcome her difficult start in life, Roo could be the perfect addition to your family. We truly believe that, with the right home, this special girl is going to flourish. ❤️

📍 Currently in foster

❤️ ROLO IS LOOKING FOR HIS FOREVER HOME ❤️

🐾 8 month-old Bullmastiff x Cane Corso

📍 Currently in kennels in Cambridgeshire

🏡 Experienced, single-person home required

Meet our gorgeous boy Rolo ❤️

At just 8 months old, Rolo is still very much a youngster. Since being in kennels, he’s put on some much-needed weight and is doing really well.

He is a big, bouncy puppy with such a goofy personality! He absolutely loves cuddles, being close to his people and covering you in slobbery kisses. 😂❤️ Toys, however, really aren’t his thing at the moment – he’d much rather have your attention and affection!

Rolo does need a very specific home, and we want to be completely transparent about why.

Being a Bullmastiff x Cane Corso, Rolo is a mix of two large, powerful guardian breeds. Both breeds can be incredibly loyal and devoted to their families and form very strong bonds with their people. However, their natural guarding and protective instincts mean they require responsible, experienced ownership, particularly as they mature.

Rolo is still only 8 months old, but he is going to grow into a very large and physically powerful adult dog, so behaviours that may seem manageable while he is young need to be taken seriously now.

While in foster, Rolo became particularly attached to one person in the household. He listened well to them but began barking and growling at other family members and showed signs of guarding his chosen person.

Moving into a new environment can undoubtedly heighten behaviour, particularly for a young dog dealing with lots of change. However, given Rolo’s breed mix, size and the natural guarding characteristics of both breeds, this isn’t something we are prepared to minimise or simply put down to him settling in.

For this reason, we are looking for an experienced single-person household where Rolo can have consistency, clear boundaries and careful management.

Ideally, his new owner will have previous experience with Bullmastiffs, Cane Corsos, guardian breeds or other large and powerful dogs. They will need to be confident reading canine body language, managing visitors and introductions, continuing appropriate socialisation and using positive, reward-based training.

His new owner must also be willing to seek support from an appropriately qualified, force-free behaviour professional if needed.

🐾 Away from this, Rolo has so many wonderful qualities.

He is a friendly, affectionate and incredibly loving boy who thrives on human company. He has excellent recall for his age, stays close to his person on walks and is confident both on and off lead. He has also been friendly when meeting other dogs.

He hasn’t shown destructive behaviour in the home and doesn’t chew furniture or household items. He can occasionally wee when he gets very excited, but at only 8 months old this is something that can continue to be worked on with patience and consistency.

Rolo originally needed rehoming because the resident dog wasn’t accepting him. This meant he was spending a significant amount of time crated to keep the dogs separated, and with his owners also working during the day, they felt he deserved a home better suited to his needs.

Rolo is still a baby with so much growing and learning ahead of him. The guidance, boundaries and experiences he receives now will be incredibly important as he develops into adulthood.

We aren’t looking for someone who simply loves the look of these breeds. We’re looking for someone who understands and respects large guardian breeds, takes the behaviour we’ve seen seriously and is prepared to put the time and work into helping Rolo become a safe, happy and well-rounded adult dog.

Behind all of that is a big, goofy, bouncy and cuddly puppy who loves nothing more than being close to his person and slobbering all over them. ❤️

For the right person, Rolo has the potential to be an incredibly loyal and loving companion.

If you genuinely feel you have the experience and home Rolo needs, please message Team-Paw Rescue for an enquiry form.

Meet Bear 🐻 

📍 Currently in Essex

Forever home needed 

Meet gorgeous little Bear ❤️

Bear is 8 years old, a small dog with a HUGE heart and an even bigger personality! 😂 Sadly, due to a change in circumstances, Bear now needs to find a new home.

Bear is an incredibly affectionate, happy and loving little chap who absolutely adores human company. He’s cheeky, quirky and full of character – and yes, it really is all about Bear! 😂❤️

🐾 WHAT BEAR NEEDS

🏡 Only dog in the home – Bear is absolutely fine seeing other dogs on walks and doesn’t react to them, but he is used to being the only dog and would much prefer to keep it that way!

👧 Dog-savvy children aged 8+

👩‍🦰 Someone around most of the time initially – Bear doesn’t like being left for long periods and will need time and company while he settles.

🌳 A secure, tidy, good-sized garden for him to potter around in.

🚶 An active fosterer who enjoys lovely walks. Bear walks beautifully on the lead, but he has no recall so must remain on lead.

Bear has been well trained around other dogs. When he sees one on a walk, he may even look at you expecting a treat because that’s what he’s been taught! 😂

🧸 Bear LOVES carrying around his little “babies” (toys) and bringing them to you.

💕 Give the bottom of his back a tickle and he’ll make adorable little growly noises to let you know just how much he’s enjoying it!

😴 Bear sleeps happily in his crate, which has always been his safe place, and settles well overnight. He currently sleeps in his crate in his owner’s room.

🚗 He can be a little unsettled travelling in the car and is happiest travelling safely in his crate.

Bear really is a funny, affectionate and very special little character. He just needs someone willing to give him the security, love and attention he deserves.

In return, he’ll repay you a thousand times over with cuddles, affection and his hilarious little ways. ❤️🐾

❣️ BEAR URGENTLY NEEDS YOUR HELP ❣️

If you meet Bear’s criteria and can offer him a foster home, please PM us urgently with your details.

📍 We are particularly interested in applications from Essex and surrounding areas.
