NOW REHOMED
progress update: 12/6/13

Hi Helen,
We just wanted to give you a quick update on Pilot and let you know how settled he is.
Although he only arrived on a couple of days ago he is so much a part of our family already that it feels like he has always been here.
What a dog, he is an absolute cracker; he is immaculately behaved and has just been perfect so far.
He is loving his walks and although I was nervous about letting him off the lead the first time, he did not let us down and his recall is amazing.
We could not love him more and could not thank you enough for letting us adopt him.
He has obviously been very loved and I wondered if you are able to pass on to his previous owners how happy he has made us and how happy he is,
I know if he had been mine I would have broken my heart to give him up so I can only imagine that the decision was not an easy one for them.
I have attached a couple of photos of Pilot (or Pie as my daughter prefers to call him) in the garden after his walk.

Thanks again and looking forward to the Fun Day Dog Show in September.
Best regards
Val and Darren

Dear Helen
Please find a lovely picture of our new dog Paddy.
Hope you can put on the website.
He loves getting muddy and playing with his ball. We have started training lessons, nothing to heavy just the basics, so you can get old dogs to do new tricks.
He’s great company and comes to work with me and has taken us on some lovely walks.
Take care Maggie.

REHOMED !

Hi Helen just a quick update on Jana who arrived yesterday, this gorgeous little pup only nine weeks old who has been an absolute delight since she arrived, she is very keen to please and just loves her cuddles,
she is very good with my other dogs and the children.

So far she has been clean and dry in the house through out the day and last night just one wee in her crate,
she slept through till 6.45, not bad for such a young pup, she really is a smashing little girl.
regards
Niki

Just had a great walk with new foster dog Frank and his pack up on Canford heath,

unless he was sniffing then we had to wait for him lol..
super fun dog,
good with other dogs on and off his lead.

REHOMED !!

Tilly Mae arrives at the Christie household….

I moved in lock, bed and kibble with Bengy on the 2nd May 2014. Popsy Andrew picked me up and the first thing we did was go for this humongous walk. I did not go back to Auntie Yvonne’s again. Eight weeks tomorrow I will have been here. I think they are getting used to me. Bengy is so laid back, and so easy to get one over on….well most of the time. I have to learn to share things with Bengy, Can’t help it but everything is so good that I just want it for myself. I have learnt to sit and wait for my food and not rush for it, Mops helps by putting it in a ‘go slow’ dish – managed to get it down to 3 minutes to devour 1 minute is licking the dish very clean. I don’t have kibble now, one sniff of what Bengy was eating and I was a transformed dog. My sore neck has cleared up, my fur is all grown back and my weight has gone up too. I have learnt to wait at the gate for mops to walk through first, Bengy does this so I copied him. Also, I lay down with Bengy when Mops is ‘diddlin’ in the kitchen. I walk nicely on my harness, but the thrill is when we go for walks, I just run and run and run…….and all the walks are different. Flat, hilly, with water holes, without. But I do object to being washed when I have just got smelling how I want to smell. My recall is somewhat sketchy. Mops just lets me know where she is and I look in occasionally but I have realised that it is better for me (treat better) if I return when she calls, normally for a good reason. I have met horses, and made so may doggy friends especially DAWGdog Tara (aka Nell) and Bilbo. I have lovely ball games, in and out the house. And I get the ‘bestest’ cuddles from Andrew Popsy and Mopsy. I have a bed I can lay out in all night, but am allowed a morning cuddle on the ‘Supremist of all beds’. Also, we have this huge sofa that Bengy and I and any other visiting dog or human shares. Bengy and I are also learning not to put the fear of God up the postmen, we only want say hello…..And then there is a bit of ‘over the fence’ communication with DAWGdogs Ozzie and Taylor and more recently Bear. All in all, I reckon I have ended up in a happy place…..I feel loved and I know that I tell them often I love them, and Bengy and I are friends

Tilly is the dog in the background.

Tilly is settling in beautifully.
She started puppy classes yesterday, she was a bit distracted but not surprising for a terrier but she is getting it slowly.
Alfie is a wonderful big brother and helps to keep her in line when she gets a bit OTT with my grandson &
in the car (she has her own little seat belt);
he is brilliant with her and fabulous company for her (and me of course).
They are both a lovely addition to my family.
They are currently snoozing following a mad dash play session.
Thanks x

Philly has now found a home !!

We’ve only had Philly for a day but she is adorable.
She’s very playful for short periods and then has a nap to recharge her batteries.
She has met our cat who doesn’t know what to make of Philly.
Philly likes barking at her but that’s just to get her attention.
She sleeps in her crate at night and although she barks for a couple of minutes she soon settles down.

Philly is the sister to Tana both four months old.

Probably mixtures with a bit of terrier in them , they won’t be large dogs.

They get on with cats.
