Seamus has now found a home !!

progress update: 18/11/11

Hi, I arrived here this week and am sharing bed space with Murphy or would do if I wanted to do so.
He seems to think that he can share my bed and toys, I have other ideas about this.
I love a cuddle from people but to be honest would prefer to be an only dog.
I do like to take charge of them all as I am an organiser.
I heard Helen say I will feel better about other dogs when I have been to the vet – not sure how going to the vet for a chat is going to make any difference.
Helen likes Terriers she says they have bundles of character.

Dexter has now found a home !!

Today I took Stanley and Dexter to the Allotment with me and I can’t say that they were as helpful as Buddy,Clive and Charlie !!
They had a great time chasing each other across my vegetable beds and crushing my plants.
Dexter thought he would help me collect the potatoes and sneaked off with a couple to chomp into at his leisure.
Stanley decided to dig into the Bees nest whilst I was weeding right next to it,thankfully they are Mining Bees and very placid.
I am afraid this was the final straw and they were marched back to the car.
Next time I go there they will be staying at home and Tess will be coming with me.

Hello. I am Dexter, a Border terrier cross Shitzu.
I arrived into the rescue two days ago and Dooley has been explaining the rules to me i.e we have to try not to throw our blankets onto the floor and that he is top dog ( after Mutley and Spike).
Helen said that I am a very amiable chap and I certainly am but I am not too keen on the little people called children they run around too much.
I do like dogs though and there is plenty of that here.

Hey Helen, As you can see I have settled in and made myself at home here.
I am getting used to my other playdogs Bailey and Pepper.
Although Pepper can be abit grumpy sometimes.
I love chasing my ball down the park and then going for abit of a dip in the sea.
I also like walking in the woods. I would like to chase the squirrels but i am not allowed. :(
Everyone is looking forward to christmas and have even been told i have some presents.
Hope its a nice chewy toy..
Anyway Helen, I hope you and Jackie and not forgetting my old mate Basil have a truly lovely christmas.
And the New Year brings lots of forever homes for all that needs it..
Lots of Love Buzz xxxx

Bailey has now found a home !!

progress update: 21/12/11
Hi, Just an update for you. Bailey aka Buzz has settled in so well. He is such a good boy. No trouble at all. He has figured out where the treats are kept and looks at me to the treats and back to me. As if to say come on, dont be tight with the treats. He loves his walks up the woods. Buzz especially likes the park with his ball and he went straight in the sea down at Hamworthy and got me completely soaked when he came out. My daughter found this highly amusing. Will post some pics very soon.
Thank you Helen and Jackie for Buzz.
Hope you all have a great Christmas and Best wishes for the New Year.
Love Michelle..x

This is the lovely Bailey.
He’s about a year old and is full of energy.
He hasn’t had much training in the past but within an hour of being here is is playing fetch with a tennis ball bringing it back and sitting to wait for it to be thrown again.

All enquiries please contact Helen:

Prince has now found a home !!

progress update: 21/12/11

Dear Helen,
We recently adopted Prince and collected him from Nicky and Kevin just over 2 weeks ago.
He is so adorable and we thank you so much for letting us adopt him – even though we live in North Somerset. He has settled in to our home so well with our other two dogs and we love him dearly.
Nicky and her family are so kind and do such a wonderful job with the dogs they foster.
Thank you once again.
Happy Christmas and God Bless in the wonderful work you all do.
Janet & Maurice Hollands

Prince is 7 months old and is been with us nearly a week now.
Prince is getting used to our busy household and he is gaining in confidence every day.

Hi, I am a Collie and will round up sheep quite nicely unlike Murphy and Mickey who have no idea of the Collie job.
Saying that I am not hectic like some Collies.
I have been a country boy who lived on a farm but they had too many dogs.
I am quite unsure about everything at the moment.
Helen has sent me to stay with Nicky, Kevin and family and their three dogs as she thinks it will do me good to be in a busy household.
It is taking a bit of getting used to so much to take in, the TV for a start I have never seen one of those before.
I am beginning to feel less anxious about it all.
Nicky and Kevin will send in photos of me soon.

Sabbo has now found a home !!

progress update: 10/12/11

Hi Helen,

Here’s a quick update on Sabbo.

He’s been with us since Wednesday afternoon and what a lovely little chap he is. He is really good with my two boys (3 & 4 years.) I do have to keep telling my youngest off because he likes to play dinosaurs and thinks Sabbo is playing when he runs away.
We gave him a bath last night and what a good boy he was, he loved the drying best off all, as he was being fussed.
He goes outside to do his toilet, although he had an accident this morning, but think it was excitment to see me.
I’ve taken him for a short walk with our dog Maddie, he is unsure of the collar and lead and got spooked by the cars going by, but walked well. He has a good appetite, you do have to watch your fingers when giving treats but he doesn’t mean to nip them.

He likes being in the same room as me, so you have to watch your step as he will lay right behind you. He was unsure off Brian when he came in from work but soon realized that he will get lots of fussing from him too :)
He hasn’t shown any signs of having a bad bone in him, all he wants is cuddles and to know he’s loved, he will make a good companion.

Will update again soon when he’s settled in a bit more. But for now here are some photo’s off him.

Sabbo is a real cutie and a bit of a poser in front of the camera.
He is approx 7 months old and a mix of something with a long body and short legs.
He is gentle and well behaved and gets on well with children
