About Mike

Mike was rescued from the streets around eight months ago and was taken to the local municipal pound where unfortunately there are next to no staff, volunteers or resources. He has waited without any hope for eight months in a kennel, but was very kindly been offered a temporary foster home in Cyprus! Unfortunately shortly after being reserved for adoption, unexpected circumstances meant his new family had to withdraw, but determined for Mike not to lose his flight space we managed to find him a UK foster home so he could still leave Cyprus and find his new start!

Mike is estimated to be around two years old and is a funny little mixed breed. He looks a bit like someone put a German Shepherd on a hot wash and out popped a miniature version. Despite his eight month stint in jail effectively, Mike is still so sweet, friendly and keen to be around humans. He’s definitely a little bit submissive, but we wouldn’t consider him to be a nervous dog and in time we think he would slot into a family so happily.

Mike is brilliant with both humans (including young children) and other dogs. He lights up when he gets to play with other pups and is friendly towards every one that he meets. He would be happy to have a friend in a home, but could also adapt to being the only dog. He hasn’t shown very much interest or reactions towards cats, but we would still recommend he’s homed with confident cats only.

Mike is learning to walk nicely on the lead and loves being outside, sniffing about in the bushes and saying hello to everyone. He would suit a moderately active lifestyle, and after spending so much time without any exercise at all, we would prefer he is homed to a family with a garden, even if it’s only a small one. He is such a happy little guy now that he’s out of the confines of the pound and he just loves human interaction. He’s happy to be stroked, cuddled and picked up, and he has also been really gentle and affectionate towards children. We think he would be happy in a home with kids, even if they’re on the younger side, but 4+ would be preferable depending on experience.

He might be small but Mike and his heart of gold are going to make a huge impact on someone’s life and we can’t wait to see him get the family he truly deserves.

Mike is currently based in SE London and is ready to meet his forever family!
