Finley

Meet Finley!

Hi, I'm Finley!

I’m only around 2 years old, so even though I might look like a big lad, I’m really still just a bouncy baby. I came to the centre because my owner became poorly and couldn’t look after me anymore.

I absolutely adore people! I’m a total flirt with visitors and will lean in for cuddles, wag my whole body, and try my very best to climb into your lap (even if I’m a bit too big!). I’m incredibly loving, affectionate, and full of joy... but I do have very strong springs in my legs and can get overexcited. I don’t mean to be boisterous, I just get overwhelmed sometimes!

I’m looking for a confident, experienced owner, ideally someone who understands bull breeds and is happy to take on a dog with ongoing behavioural needs. I can find change and new environments quite overwhelming, and I take time to settle into a new routine and build trust with the people around me. When I’m feeling unsure or overstimulated, I can become excitable and impulsive, so I’ll need someone who is patient, committed, and willing to let me settle at my own pace.

I’ll thrive in a calm, structured home with clear boundaries, consistent training, and people who understand that progress takes time. My new family should be prepared to continue the behaviour work I've already started and give me the support I need to succeed. Once I feel safe and secure, my affectionate, fun-loving personality really begins to shine, and I form incredibly strong bonds with the people I trust.

Due to my boisterous nature and because I can become overstimulated, I’m looking for an adult-only home with no other pets. I find other animals far too exciting and would be much happier as the centre of your world.
