An adventurous little canine scaled the best peak in South Wales to boost money for the rescue centre that’s been taking good care of him for the final three years.
Five-year-old terrier Yoko was taken in by the RSPCA in February 2021 and has been patiently ready for a ceaselessly home ever since.
The group on the RSPCA’s Cotswolds Dogs & Cats Home, Gloucestershire, have been caring for the little canine since he arrived.
To mark his three-year milestone in kennels, and to offer him an thrilling journey to embark on, they determined to purpose for South Wales’s highest peak, Pen Y Fan.
Animal care assistant – and Yoko’s finest good friend – Natasha Williams mentioned: “Yoko is so adventurous and loves getting out and about to explore new places so we knew he’d love the challenge. It was so lovely to give him a break from the kennel environment and we hoped that we’d be able to raise his profile too; and hopefully find him a new home.”
Natasha, Yoko and animal operations lead Ebony Poole took on the climb with Natasha’s canine, Buddy. It took them 2 hours and 40 minutes to climb the snowy 886m (2,906ft) peak on 4 March after which return to the place to begin.
Natasha added: “Yoko actually loved the climb, he was stuffed with power! He loved all the brand new smells, and was very excited once we hit the snow and he began sniffing down numerous holes. Both Yoko and Buddy obtained the zoomies and have been chasing round after one another.
“When we got to the top, Yoko’s ears were flapping all over the place where it was so windy, he was sniffing the air and taking it all in, it was lovely to see him out and enjoying nature.”
Yoko wore his ‘adopt me’ lead for the climb and the group had hoped somebody may see him and enquire about him however, sadly, nobody confirmed any curiosity. He remains to be ready for his good match.
Yoko is a candy and cheeky little canine with an enormous character. He likes to be exterior and may be discovered both digging holes or sticking his head down them!
He has a robust chase intuition so adopters might want to guarantee he, and different animals, are stored protected. He may be very intelligent so would thrive doing agility in his new home. He can also be very energetic so will want homeowners who can preserve him bodily and mentally entertained.
Yoko is searching for an adult-only home with out different pets he might chase; however he enjoys walking and enjoying with different dogs when out on walks.
The fundraising problem has, to this point, raised almost £1,600 – and the group remains to be gathering donations.
