Ruffey Lake Park Biggies, Whippies and Iggies Walk

Ruffey Lake Park Biggies, Whippies and Iggies Walk is an initiative of Rehomed Retired Racers

This is not a general walk but specifically aims to provides an opportunity for confident Biggies, Whippies and Iggies to mix with their less confident and timid fur friends.

The walk is designed to help timid, anxious and shy dogs to gain confidence in a non threatening environment and learn about being brave and happy in a social situation.

The Walk also provides an opportunity for potential owners to come along and meet these outstanding animals, chat with owners and take one for a "test drive" in the beautiful surrounds of Ruffey Lake Park Doncaster.

The group meets at The Boulevarde car park on the first Saturday and the third Sunday of the month @ 9.30am for a 10.00am start.

Larry

1 years old

Larry the loveable larrikin is ready to bounce into his new forever home! Larry is one of a kind, not only is he a handsome, sleek and full of life, he has one very 'small' difference that makes him stand out! He has almost no tail! Poor Larry wagged and wagged till he couldn't wag it anymore (happy tail is a real thing!). Larry is still very much a puppy and although has come such a long way at GAP with extra training, he will benefit from a family willing to continue his manners training in the real world. Larry may be ok with children 15 and over and certainly will be better in a home with a backyard as he loves to zoom and play with toys. He may also be ok with another like-minded medium or larger canine companion.
