The program of classes is as follows:

Ivo

progress update: 3rd Sep

Ivo has now been re-homed !!

Ivo comes from a family who didn’t want him anymore as himself and their
other dog started wandering together.Grew up with kids around (around
10/12 yrs I think) and cats,good with both I’m told.
Ivo is generally really nice, playful, affectionate, outgoing and
confident. Happy to listen and please. Good recall,no hunting/chasing
instinct as far as I have seen.
He’s also abit of a messer -loves to drag & tear any clothing(mind the
clothes on the line)and other stuff-managed to tear the felt of the
roof of the kennel-but he had help with that!
Could generally do with better manners.
He’s a bit sharp around food and the odd time around other males.Apart
from that he gets on with other dogs. He likes driving in the car.

Since arriving into the rescue here Ivo has got on very well with all
the dogs that he has met. He does need some training as Loudi has
stated.
We will give Ivo a few more days to get to know us before we let him
off the lead. I would say not with very young children as he shows some
nervous behaviour towards them.


Pippa

progress update: 3rd Sep

Pippa has now been re-homed !!

Pippa is a 2 year old Norfolk Terrier who has spent all her life tied
up in a garden with very little company.
Her family eventually decided that they would hand her into rescue.

She gets on well with other dogs but not with cats.
She likes lots of attention which is not surprising after spending so
much time on her own.
We do not know what she is like with young children so will be looking
for a home with older children.


Ella

progress update: 1st Sep

Ella has now been re-homed !!

Ella is a german shepherd who will be two in September.

She is very stable,

good with children of all ages,

and also with other dogs.

She has a nice temperment

but is a dog who needs exercise!
