Love him… or love him! Meet Marmite, the young dog looking for a forever home

Much like the famous spread, Marmite the dog has a unique personality and will be the perfect match for the right family. Marmite is slowly coming out of his ‘jar’, having arrived at Dogs Trust Cardiff through no fault of his own as a very nervous dog from a sheltered background.

When he arrived with the charity, this poor pooch had never walked on a lead before, so it is no wonder that Marmite currently finds the wider world a bit of an acquired taste. With the support of the Dogs Trust team, he is learning to discover the best parts of being a dog, slowly building his confidence and beginning to show just how much personality he has.

Marmite has shown so much progress, working to overcome his nerves and anxieties about the world. He is even beginning to enjoy a gentle fuss, has started to meet other four-legged friends, and the team is confident that over time and as he continues to learn and grow in the right home environment, Marmite will thrive and be a happy, confident dog.

Kim Davies, Manager of Dogs Trust Cardiff, said: “There’s no Love / Hate dilemma when it comes to our Marmite; he’s a wonderful dog who deserves a spot at the table. With the right guidance, he will ‘spread’ his wings and begin to blossom. Our team is doing a wonderful job at helping Marmite’s confidence, but the thing he needs most is a loving family.

“Marmite is looking for a forever family who can appreciate him for who he is, help him build his confidence, give him a second chance at life and show him how much fun it is to be a dog in a loving home.”

Marmite is looking for a home where he can settle in at his own pace and could live with teenagers who are happy to take the time to get to know him. He could also be paired with a confident, four-legged companion to show him the ropes and help him settle in comfortably.

Wonder the former racing greyhound is searching for a special home

Handsome three-year-old Wonder was handed over to Dogs Trust after his career as a racing greyhound ended when he began to lose sight. Now, having almost totally lost his sight, Wonder is learning to navigate the world and hopes to find a patient and loving forever home, that will give him the fresh start he deserves.

Since arriving at Dogs Trust’s Cardiff shelter, Wonder has shown just how much potential he has. He loves his treats, which will help him settle into a new home and stick with his ongoing training. Wonder can understandably be nervous when passing other dogs, so is looking for a home where his new owners are keen to learn with him and give him the guidance he needs. The Dogs Trust team is confident he can share his home with children of secondary school age, but he will need to be the only pet in the house.

Hannah Organ, Assistant Manager of Dogs Trust Cardiff, said: “Wonder is a very special greyhound who hopes to find a family who can give him the love, care and attention he needs. He won’t let losing his sight hold him back, and we are looking forward to seeing him cuddled up in his forever home.

“Many people think that greyhounds need a lot of exercise, but many in our care prefer short bursts of activity, followed by a long snooze. Like all breeds, they need daily walks, plenty of time and opportunity to explore, burn energy, and play.”

Earlier this month, the Welsh Government announced its intention to ban greyhound racing as soon as possible. This decision has been warmly welcomed by Dogs Trust and others in the welfare sector who have campaigned for greyhound racing to come to an end to prevent more dogs from being killed or seriously injured. Since 2018, more than 2,700 greyhounds have died or were put to sleep following their participation in greyhound racing around the UK.

We brought Fergus home this afternoon. Not even 5 hours and he already owns the place.
