  • Roscoe 9

    Roscoe

    • 2 Years Old

  • Khol 7

    Khol

    • 9 Years Old

    Khol's ideal home Khol is a loving older boy who has been making firm friends with both humans and Dogs since arriving here. We don’t know if he’s ever been around children before and at 9 years old will likely not want the hustle and bustle of young kids in the house. Those of secondary school age would be fine though as he has been happy to greet all the new faces here.
