'Sweetest soul' Annie looking for new home after false starts in life

A two-year-old bulldog cross is looking to find her forever home in Suffolk. Annie, is currently being cared for by Suffolk Animal Rescue Centre in Debenham, after having a few false starts with another rescue. Staff at Suffolk Animal Rescue have described Annie as "the sweetest soul" and are hoping that she can find her forever home soon. A spokeswoman for the rescue centre said: "Annie is a gorgeous bulldog cross. "She is chipped, neutered and fully vaccinated. "Annie has had a few false starts with another rescue so we have taken her under our wing to see if we can find her a home. "Annie is the sweetest soul. She is gentle and loving and kind. If you are looking for a family dog Annie is the dog for you." The two-year-old loves human attention and loves other dogs. She enjoys her walks and whilst she can sometimes pull on the lead for the most part she walks nicely. The spokeswoman added: "Annie loves other dogs and we feel she would settle much better into a home with a playful resident dog. "She gets bored easily and having a canine companion helps to keep her occupied." Annie is able to live with children aged over 12 years old, and she would very much like to live with anothe dog. She would also like a cat free home.
