Our lovely Kermit has been under investigation since his arrival into our care. Kermit has been unable to digest food probably, resulting in a very poorly tummy. His condition has been getting worse which has led him to loosing a lot of his body weight. On Friday 17th January we discovered that Kermit had an inoperable tumour in the lining of his stomach wall. Kermit was cuddled by his foster mummy until the end, he can now rest in peace.
He was much loved by everyone he met.
R.I.P Kermit 2.12.19 – 14.1.25.
Kermit is in foster care, near Southampton. He arrived in our care on the 15th October 2024 and he was born on the 2nd of December 2019.
This lad is a friendly boy with bundles of energy and love to give, he certainly loves his cuddles!
Kermit loves to meet new people, says hello in a calm manner and will nuzzle your arm for more strokes if you forget to stroke him! Those beautiful eyes will melt your heart, Kermit isn’t pushy for attention but will put his head on your lap and gaze up into your eyes waiting for that next cuddle!
This happy, chappy has mastered housetraining and has begun to let you know when he needs to go out, with a bark. Kermit is quiet at night, when you go out and leave him for a few hours, as long as you leave him with a nice treat or toy!
Kermit loves being brushed, especially on his neck – getting all those itchy hairs out and will stand very nicely whilst his teeth are brushed – he certainly has very white toothy pegs!
Toys, toys and more toys this chap loves to play. He is quite happy playing by himself or with a human friend. Cuddly, squeaky, rope toys – you name it this chap loves them. Kermit seems to be able to make a game up with anything he finds, always with a smile on his face, this boy is so funny to watch.
He loves to play chase me with his greyhound friends and will spend lots of time play bowing, small barks and running around, he certainly has energy this lad.
After all the excitement he will seek out a quiet place to take a nap but he will have one sneaky eye on his human friends in case they try to go out or do an exciting activity without him!
He enjoys his walks and can walk very nicely on the lead next to you, he can use his strength a little if the passing wildlife decide to come out to say ‘hello’! Kermit loves the odd cuddle you can give him whilst walking along or at a quick bench stop whilst you have a small rest. He has mastered the act of jumping into a car and after a few minutes will lay down waiting for you to start driving.
Kermit has met lots of other breed, doggie friends whilst out on his walks, he has made huge progress with other dogs. He loves to say hello to medium size above and can do so in a very calm manner.
He can get a little excited if they are all running around having fun, he is easily controlled and just wishes he could play with them too! Kermit is still learning about smaller dogs and how they can be good chums too.
This chap loves his outings and especially going to the café, he acts perfectly inside and enjoys watching all the ‘passing by’ through the large windows. Kermit will say hello to anyone and everyone in the café, in a very polite manner. He will make himself at home either standing next to you or laying by your feet.
He would be best suited to a home with children over the age of 10 years, he could be an only dog if someone was around most of the time or as a companion to a female greyhound with careful introductions.
Kermit is a boy who loves his food so watch out in the kitchen, put away those tasty treats, this lad has learnt that counter surfing is not allowed and 99% of the time he keeps his feet on the floor! He is a quick learner and knows this is wrong but still takes his chances when nobody is looking!
This chap has a delicate stomach so you will need to be careful on what he eats, we are currently trialling him on a Grain Free Diet.
Give our adoption line a call and ask to see Kermit! He is ADORABLE!
No cats please.
