Hi Helen here are a few more pictures of Tanner,
as you can see he does his best to stay in the Jacks bed,
but the inevitable always happens and his legs make their escape…..

progress update: 10/1/11

Tanner has been with us for a couple of weeks now and is the sweetest kindist natured little boy, he gets on fine with my 3 other dogs
and loves the company of my children, he often spends the evening on my 8 year old daughters lap with his great gangly legs hanging either
side, he loves to play chase the ball or tug, he is very gentle when playing and will happily give up his toys when asked.

He is doing great with his training and he will sit when hes told and he is now learning to lie down, he is also crate trained, and seems to enjoy having his own space and will often take himself off and go and lie in his crate, he also sleeps in it at night.

Tanner is now fully housetrained and asks to go out if he needs to, his only vice is that he will steal food if given the opportunity, he is much
better than when he first arrived but you have to watch him, he can be little food obsessive but show no food agggression at all.

We love having Tanner around the kids adore him and he will make a wonderful addition to any family, hes a real sweetie.

regards
Niki

Tanner has now found a home !!

Sammy needs a home !!

Sammy has now found a home !!

progress update: 31/1/12

Sammy is 16 months, a Beagle/Border Collie cross (probably!), tan and white, slim and fast.
Loves: – Walks, food (eats fast), going to the pub, people, other dogs, Radio 4!
He is house trained and obedient.
Good on the lead after the initial excitement.

progress update: 12/11/11
Hi, I am staying with Jeff and his gang of dogs and a horse.
I am a mixture with a bit of Beagle in me.
I am bigger than I look in my photos more Springer Spaniel size.
As I think I have said before I was thrown out of a car as it was going along the road.
I have had a little trouble with my back legs as a result of this but Tom the vet says I am all okay to go to a new home now.
I like older children best the younger ones don’t always understand how to behave around a dog.
I enjoy racing around the land at the back of Jeff’s house with his dogs.

Sammy is a Beagle cross that was thrown out of a car with his sister.
He gets on very well with other dogs and is popular with Jeff’s friends at the pub who he shares a teatime drink and chat with every night.
All his drinking buddies like to discuss world politics but don’t worry he won’t bore you with lengthy discussions about the state of the world as he is much more interested in walks and laying in front of the wood burner in the evenings.

He is such a beautiful boy with bags of character, mad as a hatter.
He is very easy to train as he cottons on to commands very quickly.
He is almost totally housebroken, I say almost because we still have the occasional excitable accident.
His favourite game is tug of war, but we have to make sure that it is us that wins in the end and not him (important aspect of training).

progress update on Bebe (aka Arizona): 15/6/11

Hi Helen,

Bebe is doing really well and we consider ourselves incredibly lucky to have her.
Her favourite pastimes are taking long walks, bouncing on the trampoline with the children and playing! She has the sweetness nature and enjoys nothing more than cuddles on the sofa at the end of the day.

I have sent you a few photo’s so that you can see what a beauty she is!

Kindest Regards,
Tanya

progress update on Buffy: 14/6/11

Hi Helen
Buffy continues to do well and never fails to amuse us.
She has just come into season and as you can see from the photo, she is sporting some very tasteful underwear!!
I wonder how her siblings are doing?
Thankyou again.
Kind regards and best wishes,
Sam and Richard

Hi Helen
Just a quick update on Buffy.
She is adorable and our other dog loves having her to play with. They get on very well.
We took these photos Monday evening, and as you can see, she has settled straight in and made herself at home.
Thanks again and we’ll send more photos later.

Charlie needs a home !!

Charlie needs a home !!

progress update: 29/1/12

Charlie is about 2 years old.
He gets on well with other dogs and our cat, who treats him with utter comtempt as he is the same size as her.
She has had a go at playing with him but he’s not too sure of her.
He is good off the lead and enjoys chasing a ball which he then carries around.
He does whine a bit when people leave for work/school but it doesn’t last long and he is very happy to see you when you arrive home.
He is learning to sit and wait for his food but this is a work in progress.
All in all he’s a very happy chap.

Jackie

progress update: 28/1/12

Roland

NOW REHOMED

progress update: 1/2/12

This is Roland who a year ago in Dec went to live with Lorraine and Graham.
At first Roland was NOT good with Tessa their other dog but as you can see from perseverance on Lorraine’s part he now cuddles up with Tessa every night.
Thank you Lorraine for not giving up on Roland!

progress update: 10/9/11

Lorraine sent this photo of Roland with his companion.
It took a long time and a lot of patience for Lorraine to get Roland to this stage where he will share a bed with no growling.
As you can see a little perseverance and two dogs can become the best of friends.

progress update: 17/2/11

Roland who without his muzzle on slept in the bed with Tessa.
Lorraine and Graham deserve ever ending thanks for perserving with him.
He is a lovely dog who had not been treated well and has not been easy for Lorraine, Graham and Tessa to live with at times.
Well done them and thank you.

progress update: 30/1/11

Roland has new friends to get used to 5 chickens so far behaving himself fairly well!
