Pepper
Pepper has now found a home !!
progress update: 18/2/14
Pepper is 8 years old , a lovely girl. She gets on with dogs and children.
Pepper is such a lovely little girl, wants cuddles and to be with you.
She is clean day and night and sleeps to about 4/4.30 when she will let you know that she needs to go out for the toilet, but goes straight back to bed.
She has taken an interest in our rats and the local cats when she is sat on the window sill.
Pepper loves her walks and cuddles after when being dried.
She gets on well with Maddie our dog and loves the attention our boys show her.
She does as she is told, although can be cheeky when it’s feeding time and will sneak up behind you.
I haven’t let her off lead and she does pull, like most little dogs I see being walked!
Meet Pepper, she has only been with us a couple of hours.
She’s asked to go out for the toilet, very sweet girl indeed.
Will update again when she’s settled
Toby the King Charles spaniel
Toby has now found a home !!
progress update: 16/2/14
We’ve had Toby for a couple of weeks now and he is a real character.
Before he settles down for a nap he looks around for something he can take and guard, paper, tissue, plastic bag, hat. glove, towel, anything.
He then takes it to bed and looks at you as if to say “come and get it”.
We don’t, we wait till he falls asleep and then take it.
You can stroke and pet him when he is guarding as long as you don’t go near it.
He loves his walks and gets very excited and now he has lost a bit of weight he can even get all four feet in the air.
Toby loves to meet other dogs and will run the length of the field to say hello, but then usually looks to see where you are and then I can signal to him to come back as he is quite deaf so calling is no good.
He will chase the cat but he knows he shouldn’t as he runs away so could only live with a confident cat.
Toby makes me smile at least a couple of times a day with his foibles.
He would make an ideal companion for an older person who doesn’t have young children because of his guarding as he will snap if challenged.
progress update: 12/2/14
progress update: 31/1/14
He’s quite a nice dog, gets on well with other dogs and although a bit possessive it’s not unmanageable.
I let him of the lead today and he came back easily enough.
He would suit an adult household.
Just arrived approx 8yrs old King Charles Spaniel, bit overweight so plenty of exercise needed.
More to follow once he has settled in with us.
Thank You To LV Group!
We would like to thank Liverpool Victoria Insurance Group and all the employees who voted for our Rescue to receive a donation of £2,500.
This donation to the Rescue is a tremendous help with vet bills and the costs of looking after the dogs that come in.
Thank you from all at DAWGdogs!

Kora
Kora needs a home !!
Kora is not coming to the Rescue but we would like to help find her a home
Kora is timid dog.She had big problems when she was baby but she is ok now.
We call her dancing dog. As she had hips broken when she walks she is a bit of like dancing.
Kora lives at the kennel. All our animals are eating the same food so its hard to say what she likes and what she doesn’t….
she doesn’t bark. Very, very rare maybe. I actually have never heard her barking.
Kora probably will come to UK in April, I hope. In March she will travel to CZ foster home.
She should be already here(in January), but because of lots of snow she could not travel to her foster.
Kora is about 3 years old.
At the moment she is in Marina´s address – Ukraine. Dnepropetrovsk. shelter FRIEND. She will be in foster home in Prague.
Kora is with her in shelter.
If you may be able to offer Kora a home please ring : 07923 899 576
Bella
Bella has now found a home !!
This is Bella who arrived at the rescue today, she is an 18 month old mixed breed.
More photos and information to follow once she has settled down in her foster home with Jackie
From her foster Mum in Ireland :-
I’m getting a big lump in my throat reading this and seeing you mention Bella.
I was one of the rescuers and fostered her for a week myself.
She’s a superb little dog and would have taken her myself if I didn’t have 2 already.
She needs one on one attention for a while. Apart from the house training she learned sit, lie down, bed, keep in (walking on the footpath) and walks on the lead beautifully. She was part of a pack of 6 dogs running free on walks along the shoreline near my home and got on brilliantly with them all. She’s hugely affectionate, loves cuddles and is eager to please.
She will make a fantastic pet for some lucky person.
I have lots of pictures if you would like me to send them on. Here is one.. they have come such a long way from a nightmare beginning.
I’m so exited to see they’ll be there soon.
Thank you Eileen for all your help.
And to you Helen for taking them on.
They deserve a good life xx
