More about Ghosty

Meet Ghosty 🖤

Ghosty is a lovely older gentleman searching for a calm, understanding home where he can enjoy retirement in comfort and at his own pace. Since coming into our care, he has truly flourished thanks to his time on foster, showing just how much he enjoys the comforts of home life — cosy places to rest, quiet companionship, gentle fuss, and the chance to settle into a peaceful routine.

He is an incredibly sweet and affectionate boy who forms lovely bonds with the people he trusts. Ghosty adores gentle strokes and massages, often leaning in for affection and charmingly asking for more attention when you stop with his paw. He has a wonderfully gentle nature and enjoys the simple things in life, including soft toys and relaxing with his favourite people nearby.

Ghosty enjoys walks, though he much prefers quieter countryside adventures over busy areas and likes to take life at his own pace. He has shown lovely social skills around other dogs out and about, but would be happiest as the only dog in the home where he can fully relax and enjoy a peaceful environment. Due to a strong chase instinct, he cannot live with cats or small animals. Ghosty could live with sensible older children or teenagers who understand the importance of respecting his space.

He is currently living with a slow progressing medical condition which is being, and will need careful management, so he is looking for a compassionate home willing to support him as he enjoys his golden years. Our clinical team will discuss this with any potential adopters in depth prior to rehoming. Ghosty is a truly special boy who has so much love to give and is simply looking for a quiet home where he can feel safe, comfortable, and cherished.
