Urgent! foster home needed for Henry, Dachshund x Snuffleshire Bull Terrier

Although we would prefer a forever home for Henry Little Legs, his foster home has an old stone wall surrounding the garden, it is covered in foliage and as it is not a level wall on the sides, he is able to get a foot-hold onto the wall and climb up it. This is a worry! so we are looking for a new foster home for Henry as soon as is possible. He wouldn't be able to climb up a level fence or wall.

Henry is about 3 or 4 (we think) He is an absolute sweetheart. Henry is excellent with other dogs, as long as no treats, toys or food are around.
Henry isn't cat tested, so we are looking for a home without cats. He could live with older, dog savvy children, over the age of 8.

Henry Little Legs is a great big character in a teeny body. He is not quite sure what mixture of breeds he is, but his best guess is Staffordshire Bull Terrier cross Dachshund. Whatever he is crossed with he suits very well. Not quite elevated to the level that he'd have probably liked, but oh how cute do his little legs make him?!

Henry was another abandoned dog in the pound on the put to sleep list He spent a while in emergency boarding kennels where he was vaccinated and neutered. (Sorry about that Henry, but needs must!) And then it was off to his foster home in sunny Devon.

The dogs that Henry is living with weren't very impressed with their new house guest at first, but as testament to Henry's lovely nature, He has won them over and the resident dogs love to play with Henry now.

Henry is a whole lot of personality for such a little man. He likes to 'chase' birds when they're miles up in the sky, he knows he can't catch them but gives it 100% anyway He is very loving, responsive and clever. He's housetrained, fine in the car, knows how to sit and give paw, and he could no doubt learn all manner of other things with his own person. Henry has so much to give to someone and whoever is destined to be his adopter will have such a funny and loving little best friend.

Below is the latest news from his foster carer:

"Henry is so lovely. He has been sat on the freezer looking out the window at the Birds. He has spent ages, when he goes out, exploring the Garden. I looked out the window and there he was entertaining himself running up and down with a teddy. God love him. I must say ive had a good roar!"
