Stitch the lurcher

Stitch has now found a home !!

progress update: 30/07/2014

Stitch who arrived from the dog pound with Lilo has settled in well.
He loves children and spent a long time playing hide and seek and other games with a little boy he met recently, he drew the line at Snap and Pick Up Sticks though as he said he really wasn’t so good at these games down to having paws.
He gets on great with the dogs in his foster home and has accompanied Geoff to the Pub, just to keep an eye on Geoff and to make sure he wasn’t home too late of course !!

Stitch

Unusual colourings, lurcher male, 2 to 3 years, gorgeous tempered, easy going, friendly, loving boy, leans on you, good with other dogs, excellent on a lead, travels well in a car, loves everybody, gives lovely kisses.

Basil the JRT

Basil has now found a home !!

progress update: 30/07/2014

Basil has been getting his paws under the table at his foster home apart from when the cat batts him one as he walks past it.
If he went to a home with cats it would have to be a bruiser like the cat he is staying with now.
Anyone more timid and he may be tempted to chase it.
The dog who has graciously agreed to share his home with Basil until he finds a new home is also called Basil which makes it easier for his foster Mum when calling them in from the garden as she sort of gets two for the price of one when they answer her!

He is very cuddly whether you want a cuddle or not.
A really good chap and we cannot understand how he found himself in a dog pound on Deathrow.
Still, he is safe with us now and quite pleased he avoided the last rites and breakfast.
The Gallows weren’t looking too enticing to him either !!

Basil

JRT around 8 to 12 months old, very scared in kennels, but once out he is a lovely honey monster, just wants fuss all the time, climbs on your lap, snuggles into you, very inquisitive, pretty boy, wee’d on lucie, poor lucie!
Gave me little kisses, rubs himself up against you like a cat, such a silly soppy boy.

Willow (one of Dani’s pups)

REHOMED

progress update: 30/7/2014

Hi Helen
Milo, Willow’s big brother and ‘top dog’ in our pack, is busy showing Willow around the puppy exercise field.
Willow will be 17 weeks old on Thursday. She is wonderful. Her training is coming along ‘slowly’ due to her
other brother Sky (aka Dooley of Dooley’s Diary) teaching her 1 or 2 naughty ways. Darling Willow is earning her
keep by teaching her new sister Ellie how to play. We have had Ellie for 1 year now, she was afraid of her own
shadow and agoraphobic when she first arrived – now she plays and swims in the river with Milo, Sky & Willow.
Willow learned to swim at 15 weeks old – so proud !!!! I will send photos of them all swimming soon.
Please say a big thank you to Dani who is Willows Mum and to her foster carer Jane and two lovely daughters
who gave Willow such a loving, healthy start in life. Don’t you think Willow looks just like her Mum Dani – lovely!
More pics to follow soon,
Love Marilyn & Mike

Willow has now found a home !!

Pippa the JRT

Pippa has now found a home !!

Pippa. 3 year old JRT.

Likes walks and sleeps well.. Likes Treats and lots of fuss. .looks for constant affection.
Likes to go for walks but not great on a lead, she is better on a harness, until she has more training/walking on lead..
Pippa needs general training, she will sit when she wants to play with other dogs and can be very excited when out walking,
she needs a strong hand to keep hold of her…
she is a very loveable dog …
She would be better in a home with older children or no children
