Hi Helen

It’s me Bennie

Wow its great here

I’m not sure but Sophie thinks I’m a Hobbit as you can see from the
photo I get second breakfast.

I’ve discovered this big wet and sandy thing too and I love it.

I can run and jump and play with all sorts of other dogs.

I have been for a paddle but I’m a little scared of the big wavy wet
thing though.

Hey ho off for third breakfast

Hope you are ok

I’ll see you soon maybe while I’m on walkies

Woof Bark Purr (This other funny looking dog I live with purrs a lot)

Hi Helen

Life here is really fun.
Lots of attention and lots of treats
I’ve discovered this thing called walkies which is real fun.
I got to see and meet some other dogs and look at all sorts of stuff that
makes noise but I wasn’t bothered.
When I get home I’m really tired and flop on my bed.
Apparently I’ve got the vets Saturday which sounds fun and tonight I went
for a test drive in the back of a land rover with Chloe and Sophie.
WOW that was scary at first but after a while and some chocolate I stood up
and watched where I was going.
Oh well hey ho my dinner calls.
C U soon

Hi Helen
Well after you left I stayed in my cage for a while cos I felt safe
but I was tempted out by some really tasty doggy chews.

The nice people left me alone for a while cos I think they knew I was a little
shy and a bit scared.
I then decided to explore a little and walked anywhere I liked.

I slept well all night on my new super soft doggy bed and had a chew of
some of my new toys. Because they had been so nice to me I did my
stuff on the paper they left for me.

When I saw them first thing in the morning I was a little shy and a little excited.

I had some fantastic breakfast and then I went outside to explore and play.

They ignored me for a while and I could do whatever I wanted.

I made a new friend too. A funny looking dog that purrs
and is called Smokey.

Anyway its all going well and I think I’m going to like it here.

I’ll write soon :-)

Bennie has now found a new home !!



Today Helen and Jane picked me up and took me back to the rescue.
I took a while to catch as I have not met many people before and am used
to living outside in a very small area of space.
I was terrified at first.
When I got to the rescue I was given a bath to get some of the dirt out of my coat.
I liked it when I was dried with a towel and started to relax a bit.
Jane took me home to her place to meet her family and Ozzy the dog that lives there.
He told me he was a rescue once and had a terrible life but life is good now and will be for me
too soon.
Jane and her family are kind to me and their garden is huge, I
didn’t know that there could be so much space to explore.
I am a Collie so it is in my breed to run and burn off energy I’ve just never had
the chance to do this before.Jane told Helen I am doing quite well and
she has put a cage for me to go into whenever I start to feel
overwhelmed by it all.
There is a blanket in it and the door is left open for me all the time, it feels safe in the cage a bit like a den.

I ate my food from a clean dish and it was the best meal I have ever eaten.
Lots of people have visited the house today and I am gradually getting used to a busy household.

If you think that you may be able to provide

a good home

We will usually only rehome within approx 30miles of the Bournemouth/Poole area
in order that we can ensure the continued well-being of the dogs in our care.
We will sometimes re-home further afield to this but only if the homes are exceptional.
We are NOT looking for just ANY home that is offered.
All potential homes will be assessed to try and ensure the best possible home to cater for the differing needs of each individual dog that we look after.
