Stanley
The biggest gift you can give a dog is acceptance and that is what Stanley is looking for.. ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐น๐ฒ๐ ๐ถ๐๐ป'๐ ๐ฎ๐๐ธ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ฎ ๐น๐ผ๐ ๐ถ๐ป ๐น๐ถ๐ณ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ต๐ฒ ๐ถ๐ ๐น๐ผ๐ผ๐ธ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ๐ผ๐ป๐ฒ ๐๐ต๐ผ ๐๐ผ๐ป'๐ ๐ฎ๐๐ธ ๐๐ผ๐ผ ๐บ๐๐ฐ๐ต ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ต๐ถ๐บ ๐ฒ๐ถ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ. His dream home is someone who will understand that Stanley is an individual and will take the time to learn his personality and quirks. Stanley is a happy lad, with an extremely waggy tail and loving eyes. Despite his demeanour, he does not like to be fussed, cuddled and definitely no kisses! If we are talking love languages - physical touch is not Stanley's! ๐ก๐ผ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ฒ๐ ๐ณ๐ถ๐น๐น ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐น๐ฒ๐'๐ ๐ต๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐ท๐ผ๐ ๐ถ๐ ๐๐ผ๐๐, ๐ด๐ฎ๐บ๐ฒ๐, ๐๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ธ - ๐ฏ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ณ๐๐ป ๐น๐ผ๐-๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐๐๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ด๐ฎ๐บ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป!

About Stanley
โญ ๐ ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐น๐ฒ๐!
Stanley is currently in kennels and is urgently seeking a place to call home. He needs an understanding home as can self-guard to protect his space and his peace if pushed too hard or when he feels under pressure.
He has came from inexperienced homes who did not feel equipped to read Stanley's signals, which led to him lunging and snapping. With sensitive, understanding handling, ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐น๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ถ๐ ๐ฎ ๐ต๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ฝ๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ถ๐ป๐พ๐๐ถ๐๐ถ๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐ฏ๐ผ๐.
๐๐ต๐ถ๐น๐ฑ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ป: Stanley heeds an adult only home
๐๐ผ๐ด๐: Stanley can live as a solo dog
๐๐ฎ๐๐: Stanley cannot live with cats
We get lots of applications for 'typical spaniels' but what we need now is that special home who will take the time to understand Stanley as an individual.
Stanley's ideal day would include time in a large garden interacting with toys, playing games and working on his scentwork skills. Lots of positive energy, rewards-based training and understanding. He would then love to hop up on his own chair or settle in a quiet room with his own space to snooze and dream about all the exciting games tomorrow may bring. A nice chilled walk is also on the cards once you have built some trust.
Stanley may not be the snuggliest dog and he may not be your sofa buddy - but that doesnโt mean that a life with Stan the Man would be any less filled with love, education and fun!

โ
A low-pressure, experienced home that can meet Stanley where he is without too many initial expectations.
โ
Handlers who understand a โhands-offโ approach and are willing to invest time into building Stanleyโs trust slowly and at his pace. Rescue support will be given on this.
โ
Space to give Stanley a quiet room where he can take time away from the goings-on (e.g. not a kitchen or living room).
โ
A large, secure garden as exercising Stanley in a low-pressure environment that can be controlled will likely be needed to help him settle.
โ
Experience in scent work or sporting dog training would suit Stanley as he enjoys toys and games โ we feel if these were introduced in a low-pressure home environment - with time and patience he would do well in these style of homes.
โ
Ideally the ability to meet Stanley multiple times to give him a smooth transition - although this is not essential.

Stanley is an interesting and complex dog who has a lot to give. In the right home we are confident he will thrive as he has made amazing progress these last couple of months.

He will however give you his full attention in training, games and play and he shows his love through interaction with you. Just because he loves a little differently to most - this doesnโt mean he is any less deserving of his forever home. We cannot stress how much Stanley needs that special person to take a chance on him and give him the chance he so truly deserves.
