About Cyril

Hi, I’m Cyril! I’m only 2 years old, but nobody seems to have told my legs. I’m an enormous black boy, tall, striking and very hard to miss, but underneath it all I’m just one giant, snuggly sweetheart. Most of the time I’m very calm and chilled out - I love being close to people, and I’m more than happy to lean in for a cuddle and soak up all the love. Then someone lets me loose in the gardens, and that’s where the dignity disappears… I absolutely love soft toys, zooming about and being silly! The trouble is that I have an extraordinary number of very long limbs and I don’t always know where all of them are at once. Watching me run is quite something: picture legs, enthusiasm and questionable coordination! I may be built like an athlete, but I move more like a baby giraffe. I’m a social boy and I love playing with other dogs, big and small. I can get a bit carried away when I’m excited, so I’d really benefit from a confident dog friend who knows their manners and can help teach me mine. Kids over 5 would suit me well too, though with this much leg and enthusiasm I’ll need them to be ready for a very friendly bowling-over risk. I’m not trying to be rude, I’m just a huge puppy who forgets how much Cyril there is! New places can sometimes feel a bit unsure to me, so I’ll need people who are patient and happy to give me time to settle in. Once I feel safe, I’m all sweetness, cuddles and goofy play. So if you’ve got room in your home (and a lot of extra room on your couch!), for one enormous, affectionate goofball, I’d love to meet you. Good with children aged 5 and over.
