His Story: Found stray May08. Thought to be ex-working. Homed for 1 year with an older lady but he had a tussle with a dog that rushed at him and she couldn't continue.

Salient points: Patterdale, loving with people and good with most dogs. MacTarn doesn't like some dogs to make a fuss of him so needs to be read and quick walk on! Not trustworthy with cats or small furries. Good to be left. Housetrained.

Advert: MacTarn is a Patterdale Terrier and has come from working stock, if not worked. Arrived into rescue in May 08 in poor condition, but has since been loved, cared for and proved himself to be a great companion. He mixes with dogs well outside. His recall is not brilliant due to his working traits so he is retained on an extender. Had one scuffle with another dog but as this turned out to be a neighbours dog, his owner found it too difficult to continue with him as it put their relationship at risk. MacTarn is neutered, vax'd and chipped.

MacTarn is a delightful chap who needs a terrier owner. He is very personable character as Patterdales are, which makes them delightful to own. He is a dear, through and through:  He is also a terrier through and through. He is young, in good health and awaits his new family, what a treasure they will find him to be.
