Gerry has now found a home !!

progress update: 7/7/12

Hi helen just a quick update on jerry, this little chap has stolen all
out hearts with his kind nature and his zest for life, Jerry is always
on the go, either playing with a toy by himself or playing with my
other dogs, he has a lot of energy for such a tiny dog, and has us
in stitches with his funny antics.

Jerry is clean and quiet in the house, he sleeps in his crate through
the night with no problems at all he also travels well in the car,
Jerry very much enjoys the company of my children who are aged 10 and
above, and will spend all day playing football with my
older son, I cannot praise this boy enough he really is a delight to
have around, and will make a lovely companion.

Jerry cannot be homed with small furries or Cats.

Regards
Niki

Georgie is a 8-9 week old Cairn X.
He is a beautiful little boy, very sweet who loves his cuddles.
He was clean and quiet in his crate overnight and is doing well with
his paper training.

Not much more to say at this point as he hasn’t been with us long.
He is yet to meet the cats but due to his age (and size) I don’t think
it will be a problem!

Thanks,
Tanya

Hello Helen,

Syd has grown up fast
He is a very good boy I think the training has helped a lot because going makes you stay on top of things!
Walking to heel on the lead still isn’t a strong point but off the lead he is brilliant and I would rather it that way round.
He has learnt lots of other things too! He and Jessie are best friends, she is still the boss but they love each other a lot.
He has settled in so well is no longer car sick we go out in the car everyday and he loves it.
The forest is his favourite place to be though and as that’s where I work we get to enjoy it every day.

Kind regards
Emma

I thought I’d let you know how I’m getting on in my new home.
I’ve settled in quite well I have a lovely big bed all to myself though I sometimes let the midget share with me.
She’s a bossy little thing but we have lots of fun together. Below you can see us out on one of our nice walks.
We have been doing some training with emma using a whistle we are very good at it and it keeps us busy. were doing some basic gun-dog training (just for fun) jess is quite good even though shes not really a gun-dog but I’m getting the hang of it and she backs me up.

Here I am on another walk I go to work most days which is good because I get lots of nice walks on the forest, I give the ponies and cows a wide birth though! Emma says this is good as jessie (the midget) always try’s to play with them and in my opinion they are far to big for us! I love the forest though there’s so much room to play and so many smells its like heaven.

So after a long days work (most of which I spend asleep) shhh don’t tell Emma, I like to play lots and jump all over emma and tom before sleeping some more in my cosy bed and snoring sooooo loud that Emma can hear me upstairs lol but I’m asleep so I don’t care!!! He he he.

Anyway I think it’s time you came and got me because this Christmas thing has gone to her head and she’s making me wear this stupid hat! silly women! Though she says I’m gonna get lots of presents on the day so I might forgive her. She’s not so bad I guess. I let her think she’s in charge but really she’s wrapped around my paw.

Anyway just wanted you to know that I’m happy in my new home and I’m being a very good boy! (As long as I get my walks) so no need to worry about me. Good luck with finding homes for all the other dogs and tell them not to worry because I know you’ll find them good homes too. Thank you for finding me mine.
Happy Christmas
Love Syd xxx

Hi, I am Mickey and I arrived this week along with my brother Murphy.
I think Murphy has already mentioned that we came from a farm where other dogs were doing the farm work and we weren’t needed.
It was quite cushy laying in in the morning while the other Collies wee getting up for work at crack of dawn.
I am staying at Heleanor’s house with Winstone, two other dogs, chickens, cats, rabbits etc etc.
No Terrible Terrier here bossing me about!

Kenzie is five years old and a Boxer cross Labrador.
He is quite a large dog but what an absolute softie he is.
He is marvelous with all dogs he meets and good with children we were told by the lady who handed him into us. Kenzie has lived at a pub when in his old home ad so is very sociable.
He also loves going to the pub it reminds him of old times.
He is a strong dog with quit a pull when he is walking.
If I didn’t already have my two dogs I would keep him in a instant.

Hi Helen and all at DAWG!!!!

Well its been just short of a year now since I moved in here and I’m still happy :) My family are really nice (most of the time but they don’t give me enough sweets :@) and we’re having lots of fun together! I have been on holiday a couple of times which was really good, I liked going into the countryside and following my nose for miles but I wasn’t too sure about the sheep…..I thought they’d make good friends but Mum and Dad said ‘NO’!!!! I have been going to my training classes still and getting on really well, I got my puppy award and my bronze award and I got to be a calendar girl for the club too….I’m Miss June :) Mum and Dad took me to have my spaying done, I was really cross with them for that….It hurt but I forgave them when they gave me some nice roast chicken!!!!!
I’m still not happy to be left alone but I’m learning to be brave and remember that they do come back, and I’m still very fond of the sound of my own voice (or that’s what Mum says).
I have lots of friends, both dog and human and enjoy a good charge around with anyone willing; young or old, big or small especially on the heath or the beach and I love doing the school run with Mum because I have lots of children fussing over me, rubbing my tummy :D
My recall is getting better all the time and I’m learning much better manners for when I’m on the lead too….Mum says her back doesn’t hurt nearly as much!!! I’ve grown and put on plenty of weight too but I burn off lots of energy chasing after a naughty squirrel that likes to sit on my fence in the garden and seeing off the pigeons that try to eat the little birds food. I spend lots of time chewing up boxes and bottles for the recycling but my favourite thing is to pull all the stuffing out of my toys and spread it all over the carpet! Dad gets a bit cross about that but I don’t know why :)
Mum takes lots of photos of me and I’ve sent you some of my favourite ones so you can see how happy and big I am now.

Lots of love and licks to you all and thank you from me and my family

Freckles xxxx

Hi Helen

I’ve been with my new family now for nearly 3 months and I like it here!
I’m still a big handful but Mum and Dad say I’m getting there slowly but surely.
I spend lots of time running around in the garden and I like watching the children on the trampoline, I would like a go but they all say no.
I have started going to training classes which are lots of fun as I get to run around a big field a lot and play with other dogs…Mum says I’m meant to be learning but I think thats boring!!!
I get to go for lots of walks on the heath and I love all the different smells I find up there…my nose is always busy.
I’m still very scared of being left on my own but I’m getting better and am starting to trust that they will come back.
I’m still very noisy (or so they say) but I am learning that my voice is sometimes a bit too loud!!!!
All in all I like my new family and my family like me so I’m happy and they’re happy (most of the time…lol)

Thank you for finding me my home and thank you from my family for letting me come to them

Lots of licks

Hello, I arrived into the rescue on Sat I bounced in and made friends with Patches and Flash straight away.
I am a Cocker spaniel cross Beagle apparently, though I heard Helen saying it is hard to be sure what a dog is but I put my nose to the ground and go selectively deaf like a Beagle.
A lady took me for a walk to day and told Helen I was very trainable and that I picked up quickly on what I was being told to do.
I love the other dogs here apart from when Patches and Flash who gobble their dinner down in 5 secs flat then hang around my bowl waiting for a chance to steal my dinner.
I ignore them and Helen tells them to back off.
I cried a bit when I first came here but by bedtime had settled into a comfortable bed for the night it helped that Helen stayed up very late so that I could have the light on for extra time.
