Please say 'hi' to Gentle Jim 
This sweet fella was found wandering around with his little friend Jane, and both dogs were brought in by the wardens.
As Jimmy isn't on the walkers list yet, we took him down to the riverbank for a toilet break and a bit of respite from the noise of the kennels.
Jimmy seemed completely bewildered at his recent change of circumstances
So we didn't press him or try to put him through his paces today, just reassured him gently
If Jimmy's owners don't come forward for him he will be available for rehoming from 15th January, and if you'd like to meet him please phone the Dogs' Home: 029 2071 1243 or visit Cardiff Dogs' Home, Westpoint Industrial Estate, Penarth Road, open 7 days a week, 10.30 - 4pm.

We made it down to the start of the Ely trail without any issues, Jimmy was just happy to be out and about! After burning up some of that pent up energy, Jimmy walked wonderfully at our side, but he did have a few manic moments where it was really obvious he just wanted to run around and play with everyone and everything! The busy traffic didn't seem to bother him much, if at all, but I think he appreciated a break from the road and a trot in the grass. On our way back we came across an abandoned football by the boat yard and Jimmy had, well, a ball! 
He picked it up, threw it around, ran in little circles then bounced back onto it, making playful noises the entire time. There were no hard feelings though when we had to head on home, and he left the ball behind without a fuss. Jimmy took his treats very gently and sat patiently while I fumbled with my camera. He showed a lot of interest in other dogs but zero aggression. I'm sure a handsome, sweet, and affectionate boy like this won't be waiting too long. He'll make the perfect addition to the right family!
