Dogs Trust Cumbria is looking for an active family to adopt Simba, a one-year-old Boxer cross who arrived from a stray pound.

Dogs Trust Cumbria is seeking an active family to provide a home for Simba, a one-year-old Boxer cross who arrived at the charity from a stray pound. His previous history is unknown, but his foster carer describes him as a friendly, bouncy dog who has settled very quickly into care.

Simba is house-trained and polite, waiting for permission before eating his dinner. His foster carer said: 'Simba is a lovely lad who is very polite. He waits to eat his dinner until he is given permission, and he appears to be house-trained. He has settled in quickly as though he has always been here.' The dog responds quickly to his name and takes treats gently, demonstrating basic training with commands such as 'sit' and 'paw'.

On walks, Simba is generally well-behaved on the lead, though he can pull if he catches an interesting scent. He is relaxed when having his lead put on and enjoys running around, or 'zoomies', in the garden. He is described as 'very friendly and sociable', approaching strangers with excitement and loving attention and affection.

Dogs Trust believes Simba would thrive with active adopters who can match his enthusiasm and energy. He could live with children of upper primary school age and above who are confident around bouncy large breeds. Anyone interested in offering Simba a home can contact Dogs Trust Cumbria or visit their Community Hub at 3 Middlegate, Penrith.
