Amos & Arty have both now found homes !!

progress update on Arty: 24/5/12

Dear Helen,

Just to say that Arty is getting on really well at his new home here in Dorchester.
When we got Arty a month ago, he hid for almost the whole weekend behind our chair in the corner of the room.
He became much more confident every day, and now he he’s always looking for a cuddle or a game of ball with the children.
He eats, drinks and sleeps very well, as well as being very well behaved on walks, especially around over dogs.
All in all, Arty is a joy to have and is a perfect dog.

Many Thanks,
The Lucas Family
(We will send some pictures soon!)

progress update: 24/3/12

Harry is ten months old micro chipped , castrated and vaccinated.
He is a tall dog with the most lovely wavy coat, he enjoys a good romp with the other dogs we meet out and playing fetch and splashing in the river.
He is house trained and sleeps in his crate over night without a peep
Travels well in the car. He will need some more training to walk politely on the lead, he is only a pup still.
He is unsure of what to make of the cats often trying to get them to play this ends up with him barking at them .
Due to his size I think he would be better with children over eight.
He is a loving dog that would be a great in an active family as he has boundless energy.

Jacob has now found a home !!

progress update:
Hi Helen just a quick update on Jacob aka Jack, well so far since his arrival this little chap has not put a paw wrong.
He’s quiet and clean in the house, happy to go in his crate day or night, travels fine, loves his walks, good with other dogs,
has great recall, we are already off lead on day 3, he really is a pleasure to look after, he would be better suited to older
children age 9 and above, as he is a little nervous if there is a lot of noise.
Regards
Niki

Jack, A two year old Terrier who is good with dogs, children and cats.
More to follow as we get to know him better.

 

Carly has now found a home !!

progress update: 30/4/12

Update for Helen, Carli had the op to pin her leg and has been a very good patient.
She’s had dressing off today and a few stitches out.
We need to ensure she doesn’t do too much to give her leg a chance to heal…
which we hope it will in time as she’s a little star and loved very much!

progress update: 21/4/12

Quick update…Carli (now ending i to match all our other animals) is settling well and has been very good.
She’s got our rescued greyhound Addi for company and the three cats Ozi, Oli and Bili.
She loves to play football in the garden with the girls, has been quiet at night and very well behaved…
thank you to foster mum Tanya Bishop for giving her a great start :)

Hello Everyone! My name is Carly.
I am a beautiful friendly little girl and I am about 4 months old.
I behave very well with other dogs, children and cats. I am clean and quiet in my crate overnight and am a quick learner.
I am looking for a family to give me lots of love and cuddles x
Lots of love, Carly x x x

Jack has now found a home !!

Jack is two years old and just fabulous.
He gets on very well with other dogs, loves people and is curious to meet Geoff his foster Dad’s horse.
The horse is not interested in meeting him and has been known to chase a over curious dog out of his paddock so Jack has not had the chance to discuss world matters with him.
He does however get to put the world to rights at the pub where Geoff and his cronies meet for an evening drink.
He is a favourite with all of them.

Hi Helen
We realised the other day that it has been some time since we’ve been in touch to update you on Paddy.
Well, all is going well and he was signed off by Tom for his leg about a month or so ago.

Since then we’ve had lots of lovely time together walking in the woods and forest, cuddles at home and (would you believe) paw massage from Mike!

We did however take him to the vet (locally) today due to what looked like some little pustules in his ‘nether regions’.
The vet discovered that stitches had been left in from when he was neutered and there was an infection as a result.
Indeed, he discovered that only one testicle had been removed.
I realise that Paddy was neutered before coming over from Ireland but thought I should just let you know.
Poor thing, it has been irritating him for a while and we thought at first he was just eager with his washing and attention in that area!!
The other day we discovered the source of his irritation.
We have some antibiotics for him now so it should clear up soon.

That said, Paddy has remained calm and such a lovely natured dog with his confidence growing gradually each day.
He went on his first holiday with us last week to the Isle of Wight! What a lovely time we had.
I’ve attached some photos for you (please share with Tanya or the DAWGS site if you wish).
All in all, we love him lots! Nina, Mike and Tobias
