Leo and Jenn

REHOMED !!

progress update on Jenn : 30/12/13

IMG-20130904-WA0000

Hi Helen

Can’t believe that we’ve had Jenn with us for pretty much 6 months.

Thought we’d send a bit of an update to let you know that she’s still doing really well.
She’s no longer in the crate and happily stays in the kitchen while we’re out.
She had her first season in November so we will be making the arrangements to get her spayed at the end of February.

Her confidence has come along in leaps and bounds – she’s very good with other dogs – happy to play but happy to come away when called.
We went through a stage of her chasing bikes and runners. But now they are completely ignored.
Her recall is very good, she never goes that far away and it’s not unusual to come around the corner on a walk and find there waiting for us to catch up.

She seems to love people too and doesn’t seem to bark much at home either. In fact our neighbours didn’t realise that we had Jenn J she’s been so quiet.

So all in all a good 6months – she’s definitely not the same little dog I picked up from you at the end of June.

Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Regards

Sarah & Kevin

Kenny the hero

REHOMED!!

progress update: 11/12/13

Update on DAWGdog Kenny who is now a hero!!

“Just wanted to let you know that Kenny has been a hero. last Sunday we were walking at ham common and he ran off..which isn’t that unusual as he always finds dogs to play with..or people to go say hi to…he thinks he is a celebrity and everyone should meet him!!! This time he didn’t come back so I wondered back to find him and a family we had met earlier told me he had run off the beaten track following a couple and a little dog…also who we had met earlier. So I continued after him only to find that the lady slipped and had broken her foot really badly. Kenny had brought me to her. We then had to run all the way back to the car park to meet the ambulance and show the paramedics where the lady was. I am so proud of the little fella as the lady could have been there for a long time as the ladies brother did not want to leave her. Kenny you are a hero and I know Angela his foster mum has helped to make you the brave little soldier that you are. we love you little puppy”

Rover

Rover has now found a home !!

progress update: 21/11/13

Rover has gone to his new home today!

progress update: 20/11/13

Thinks he’s died and gone to heaven – hardly slept for 36 hours – maybe he thought he’d wake up and find himself back where he was…

He is absolutely delightful – loves everyone – dogs, women – men , children (well, one so far…)– watches me like a hawk and sticks to me like glue.
He’s jolly strong for a dog with his background.
If anyone deserves a wonderful forever home, it is Rover.
PS. He doesn’t seem to know his name…

Rover will be coming into the Rescue tomorrow

progress update: 6/10/13

We are in the process of rescuing Rover.

He is not at the Rescue yet but we thought someone might be moved enough by his plight to be able to offer him a home as soon as possible after he comes in, in order to minimise the disruption and stress that he will obviously undergo until he finds a loving forever home.

Hi Helen,
Had hoped not to contact you so soon but had this heart breaking email from Anita from she just wondered if there might be somebody out there
who might be able to take him on.
We will make sure he is vaccinated and given the once over from the vet just to make sure all is well.
It is a lot to ask right now but thought I would run it by you as wasn’t sure what else to do.
Anita has said despite everything he is a lovely dog very friendly and still loves people and also very good with other dogs.
Thank you as always Helen,
Take care,
Eileen

Hi Eileen, here a few photos of Rover.
He is about 10 years old, not neutered and very friendly.
At present he is being kept by his owners in a small enclosure in their back yard without any shelter or company.
His food contains out of scraps of the table that look disgusting and I found his water bowl half empty with dirty water.
Also his run isn’t kept clean.
He was gotten as a pup when the children were five and eight.
I hope that he can find a loving home for the last few years of his life.
Greetings, Anita

Bentley

Bentley has now found a home !!

progress update: 17/11/13
Bentley is a shy boy and has lived in a quiet environment but he is adjusting well to living in our busy household.
he can be a little nervous around new people to start with but soon relaxes and enjoys a fuss Bentley loves his walks so would need to go to an active home where he will get plenty of exercise and stimulation at present he is very strong on the lead so would require further training.

Bentley travels well in the car he is clean and quiet in the house, he loves other dogs and is happy to meet greet and play when he is out he really is a lovely dog.

Bentley

This is Bentley who arrived at the Rescue today,
Bentley is a year old medium size Terrier mix,
he is fully vaxed neutered and microchpped,
he is good with other dogs travels nicely in the car but will require some lead work
