Coileanin (a.k.a Paddy)

REHOMED !!

progress update: 07/04/2017

Hi Helen, we rescued Coileanin from you 2 weeks ago tomorrow and wanted to give you and update on how he is doing!
We have renamed him Paddy and he responds to it very well.
He is getting better and better each day, has learned sit and today learned ‘paw’ within 5mins!!
He is such a wonderful dog and has the sweetest temperament…im regularly being woken up in the middle of the night by him nuzzling me for a cuddle
Today we went on a lovely long walk in the woods behind our house and he was so brave, he even wanted to play with other dogs he met on the way!
He’s still a little unsure whilst walking in the streets but tonight hes been out again and is improving each time!
Thanks to you and to the lady in Ireland for saving him and for choosing us to be his new family, we love him to bits xxx

Casper

Casper has now found a home !!

Casper had a lovely day today.
Jane picked him up at lunchtime and took him through Branksome woods and down to the beach.
He stayed there all day in their beach hut.
He had the company of their dog Teddy to play with and then had a good and long sleep.
Tonight he is staying with Jane at her house and tomorrow will be off for another walk before coming back to the Rescue in the evening.
He is improving day by day and I am a 100 per cent sure he has full sight in one eye.

He really has a good and sweet nature

Casper went for his first walk today and bounced around on the lead like Bambi.
Almost certain that he has good vision in one eye as he can see a tennis ball in dusk light and another dog from 20ft away.
He is now asleep and thoroughly tired out.
He is a clever dog and picks up straight away when to stand still to untangle his lead.
He has started to play with the other dogs

Casper arrived yesterday.
He is only around 5 months old and bless him has not had the best start in life.
He still has most of his baby teeth.
Someone has sliced part of one ear off and on top of this he can only see shadows in one eye and is probably partially sighted in the other.
He is starting to settle in here at the Rescue and has the sweetest of natures.
Today, he was watching the mop going from side to side and trying to catch it.

 

Roxie

Roxie has now found a home !!

Roxie has been handed into the Rescue to be found a home.

She is around 9 years but bounces like a three year old.
I don’t know what she is like with children as she has never lived with them.
She is good with other dogs and the usual strong, full of energy bulldozer type Labrador.
She is seeing the vet next week for a check over and to be spayed but seems in good and robust health.
She is strong on the lead but I think will calm down once she has had some exercise.
The people who had her kept her in a kennel outside from a little puppy age.
How very sad and why bother to have a pet dog if that is what they do to them.
She smelt to say the least when she arrived but 6 washes later is sweeter smelling.
Otherwise typical Labrador in the fact she is mad for food and knocks everything out of the way to get it.
They are not the most delicate and polite of dogs!

Geoff who she is fostering with has phoned to say she has settled in very well and is a very sweet girl.
