Lassie has now found a home !!

progress update: 21/7/12
Lassie is still looking for a home.
Lassie is a lovely character excellent with small children, about the size of a larger Sheltie of which she is a mixture of.
Lassie was homed by us seven years ago when she was just one years old and for those of you not good at maths that makes her eight years old. She has come back into the rescue because her owner has become ill. Unfortunately, she was never trained out of her Collie instincts of liking to chase and round up cars and still likes to round them up. With patience and time or someone who walks where no cars are driving around in an untidy manner she will be a perfect companion.
Lassie has been in kennels for the last few weeks as we had no space in any of our foster homes.
This week the kennels where we have been boarding her are full up and we need to find her a space for her sleeping bag, alarm clock etc by Tuesday.

Lassie is 8 years old and a Sheltie type cross, she is excellent with young children.
Unfortunately due to illness in her previous home she has been returned to us.
Lassie walks well on the lead but is strong and she is very good off the lead.
She has eaten a few too many pies and needs to lose some weight.

If you may be able to offer a home
or would like more details

please contact Helen directly on:

progress update on Lil: 16/10/12

Hi Helen, just a quickie to let you see how Lil is doing (of Jack & Lil).
I’ve had her 2 years now and can’t imagine life before Lil.
Always keep an eye on your website – you and your team do amazing work – wish I could adopt another but would have to meet with Lil’s approval!

Can’t imagine life without her now!

Jack has now found a home,

Lil still wants a home !!

progress update 15/8/10

Our names are Jack and Lil and we are two Jack Russell puppies looking for permanent loving homes.
At the moment we are fostering with Ozzie and his humans.
We are 9 months old, fully vaccinated and will be neutered.
Jane thinks we are really lovely and even Jonathan (who pretends he doesn’t like little dogs) says he has to admit we are very sweet!
It would be nice to go to a home together but we realise this may not be possible.
We have been at Ozzies house just over a week now and Jane has let us off our leads on a walk for a good run round.
We love this and do come back when she calls us.
If we don’t, Ozzie rounds us up like a sheep dog!!
We are not sheep and can’t understand why he thinks we are!
We are clean in the house and friendly with other dogs.
Please consider giving us a home and if you think you can, ring Helen at the rescue 01202 380467

Jack and Lil are 9 month old terrier puppies who are very friendly and like other dogs too.

Jack and Lil, 9 month old Jack Russell puppies, fostering with Ozzie.

Crate trained, house trained, don’t chew, very sweet little dogs.

Can be separated.

Helen just a quick update on the terrible two.
As you can see they love the sun.
Here they are sitting on our new oak floor soaking up the rays.
They had their jabs this week as well.
They are both doing really well and have made many friends with all the
tradesmen who have worked on the project.
I will send another of Alfie that will melt your heart when you see it.
Regards, Les and Ibi Maros.

Both pups have now found homes!!

progress update: 8/4/12

Helen, just a quick note to let you know how Holly & Alfie are getting on.
They are both in very good health.
We had a scare with Alfie when he hoovered up a chicken bone accidently dropped on the floor.
We had a visit to the emergency vets with him on a Sunday with him, lucky he is insured.
Holly is still so very cute if not a bit highly strung.
Alfie is the soft dopey one who has developed a liking for lying on his back when I pick him up.
I have to hold him on his horizontally massaging his back.
It has to be seen to be believed.
We have all taken hundreds of photos of them of which I have sent you a few.
I see that you have a load more dogs up for adoption I hope you can find good homes for them.
Holly and Alfie have certainly made our life much richer, and anyway whats a lawn who needs one ?

Regards, Les & Ibi Maros.

Nellie in her new home with Staffy cross new best friend

Nellie has now found a home !!

Born 08/03/11

Nellie is spayed, microchipped and has up to date health check and
vaccinations. She has a healthy heart and has no health issues.
She eats twice a day once in the morning and once early evening.

She is a lovely, lively and energetic dog. She is not food orientated
but toys and play are her favourite. She will need some further
training as she is housetrained and will ‘go pee pee’ on command but
hates being left alone so if left for more than a couple of hours
alone may pee inside.

She is friendly and non aggressive, she adores children and other dogs
but may need some supervision on first introduction so she doesn’t get
too excited. She has a tendency as all boxers do to jump up to say
hello.

Her favourite treat is pigs ears, she loves water but is not a great
swimmer, long walks and an enclosed garden for her to run around in
would make her a very happy boxer.

She responds to sit, go down and bed but is not great at coming back
on a walk unless she is exhausted and then will come back for a toy.
She doesn’t like being on the lead if she knows that means she’s going
home. Her perfect world would to be outside all day with interaction.

She sleeps and rests in her own bed and knows not to get on the sofa (
don’t let her kid you she doesn’t). If the postman visits she has a
tendency if your not looking to eat the post, but usually she just
mouths it and will ‘leave it’ if you are home. She likes tummy rubs
and when relaxed sleeps upside down with her legs in the air with her
tongue out …..don’t worry this is normal.

Jodie has now found a home !!

Jodie update: I have nothing but good things to say about this lovely lady!

My brother walked her today (as I have a poorly 3yr old today), she walked beautifully on the lead for him and he was even confident enough to let her off.
Her recall was good considering its the first time he has walked her.
In the house she is clean, quiet and very well mannered.
She is happy just to be near you and to lie at your feet.
The children can leave their toys lying around on the floor and she won’t touch them.
The cats are very confident around her and one of them has even taken to trying to share her bed at night!

Jodie is an older lady looking for a nice quiet home and lots of love.
She is a Terrier X and approx 8/9yrs of age.
Brilliant with other dogs and children, not remotely interested in the cats and barely paid any attention to the guinea pigs on the lawn!
I will update again once she has settled but so far a wonderfully sweet dog looking for a home to spoil her!

NuNu has now found a home !!

progress update: 29/8/12

Just a quick update on this darling little dog, she grows in confidence every day,
she is clean in the house and as yet we haven’t heard her bark.
Nu nu loves her walks and is now spending a lot of her walk “off lead” where she is a little happier to greet other dogs.
Needs brushing every day which she seems to think is one big cuddle.
She is a very loyal little dog and would fit into any family with or without
other dogs

progress update: 22/8/12
NuNu went out for a long walk today (2hrs) and was a really good girl on the lead,
she met lots of dogs but just hid behind me till she has built her confidence,
she is getting on great with the three she is sharing a home with and just loves to be brushed,
will hop onto your lap at any time

Dear Aunty Helen,have settled well with my foster mummy although one
of her dogs is very scary,you know the little one with no hair.
I think she may be jealous as i have a beautiful coat which they have brushed and combed all day(how pretty do i look) and of course she is
hairless!
I ve been out for a walk a walked nicely on my harness and went a calling to have a beer.
I am overcoming my nerves and even ventured a little play.
Will let you know how i get on with the other two dogs when we have spent more time together.
nite nite xx
NuNu

Nu Nu is three years old, good with children and dogs.
