Mabel ( a.k.a Angel ) + Henry (a.k.a Sweep)

progress update for Henry : 5/6/11

Hi Helen
We adopted Henry aka sweep just over a year ago now, and wanted to bring him
along to the DAWG dog fun day if you are having one.
I expect we’ll enter him in a few competitions if he behaves himself
(and if I can cope with the heartbreak of him not winning of course, dreadful proud parent!)
I’ve attached a few up to date photos of Henry, and his step sisters,
you’d think they’d been born in the same house!!!!

Kind regards
Kim and Mark

progress update for Angel ( now Mabel): 21st May 10

Hi, just an update on Angel who now goes by the name of Mabel.
We have had her for a month now now and she is everything we had hoped for.
She is very loving and loves a snuggle on the sofa.
She is also very cheeky and mischievous but is doing well at her puppy training classes – she will do anything for a piece of sausage!!
We all adore her and are so pleased that she has come to join our family, thank you for a wonderful little dog, we wouldn’t be without her now.

Angel and Sweep have now both been rehomed!!

progress update for Sweep ( now Henry) :

Henry has settled in very well and extremely quickly into his new home.  He
goes to bed without whining now and with the light off, he loves his cuddly
toy, he loves his new Mum and Dad it seems and is totally and thoroughly
loved and spoilt.  The cats unfortunately do not like him and are giving me
the impression I have ruined their lives!!!  Soooo dramatic.

He is incredibly good for a rehomed 17 week pup and starts his puppy
training classes next week, lets hope we can curb him of jumping up, play
biting, yelping when you leave the room and sneaking up on our laps on the
sofa with his puppy dog eyes!!!! (Although I suspect that we are the ones
who need training in this respect).  He is a very sociable little pup and
has great fun down the beach with whoever is down there – getting the
occasional nip in the process.

I have to say we are very pleased with him and he will be well loved.  Even
my husband who has never had a dog in his life is smitten!  My step daughter
is visiting next week and is beside herself with joy at the prospect of
meeting him – fantastic! she can give him some attention whilst I go and
have a lie down! LOL!!!

Thank you to Dawg Dogs for giving us the opportunity to adopt him and
basically completing our little seaside home.

Angel and Sweep are Lab cross Spaniel pups, 16 weeks old and very sweet.
Tragically the family that they lived with have been made homeless and the pups were living in the car while they desperately tried to find somewhere to live where the pups would be welcome, but as the temperature dropped they realised they would sadly have to give up the pups.
The children would love for them to keep the names they gave them when they go to a new home.
Wriggly dogs are Mark at the rescue’s favourite type of dogs and he is the person that always calls these breeds wriggly dogs for obvious reasons!
