Wednesday & Lurch

About Wednesday & Lurch

Hello! I’m Wednesday,

I’m a dainty little lady with a soft, shy soul—but once I feel safe, my bouncy side shines through! Meeting new people can be a bit scary for me, so I need time to come out of my shell, but it doesn’t take long for me to show my true character. Trust me, it’s worth the wait—I absolutely love cuddles and will happily snuggle up with you once we’re friends. When I feel comfortable you’ll see how bouncy and silly I can really be. I love to bounce around and I enjoy playing gently with small stuffed toys.

I’ve never lived in a home before, so everything will be new to me. My perfect people will be calm, experienced with shy dogs like me, and understand that I’ll need gentle encouragement to settle in. I always wear my muzzle and stay on my lead when we’re out and about to keep all the cats, small furries and small dogs in the world safe.

Hi, I’m Lurch,

I’m a gentle, sensitive boy who finds the world a bit overwhelming sometimes. I get nervous in new places and around people I don’t know yet. But when I’ve had time to get to know you, I’m very affectionate. I especially love being brushed—it’s one of my favourite things—and I’ll happily lean in for some quiet cuddle time.

I don’t really care about toys, and I can be a bit fussy with food (a guy’s allowed to be picky, right?), but I make up for it by being calm and kind. I look to Wednesday for support—she helps me feel braver when things feel big or strange. I do have a high prey drive, so like Wednesday, I need to stay on the lead in public and wear a muzzle.

We come as a pair. We’ve been through a lot together, and our bond is really special. We comfort each other, play together, and rest side by side. We’re looking for a quiet, loving home where our humans will understand that we need time, patience, and a steady routine to truly flourish.

We might not be the dogs who run up to greet you right away—but give us a little space and a lot of love, and we’ll become the most loyal companions you could ever wish for.

Could you be our person?

If you’ve got experience with shy dogs, a calm home, and the heart to take in two gentle souls who just need a little help to shine, we’d love to meet you.
