Maisie

NOW REHOMED !!

progress update: 15/05/2016

Just to let you know that Daisy is doing really well.
She has slept right through the night from outset with no bother at all.
I’ve weaned her off tinned food, so she is just having dried food now.
We go to the vet on Wednesday. She is great with Olly and other children but still barking at other dogs of her size and bigger.
She has got to know a few smaller dogs (on the lead) without much fuss. We’ll try the bigger ones later.
I know that there are dog socialisation classes which meet outside in the forest.
I’m hoping that the vet can tell me of one locally.
She is brilliant with her ball (actually we use two) and it gives her a proper work out up and down our long garden.
This morning, she was chasing around the garden on her own – I guess it’s the collie in her – enjoying the sunshine.
As I am typing this, she is stretched out on the floor at my feet, with one ear open.
I gave her name on the phone to the vet earlier and she came straight to me!
I left her yesterday morning for 40 minutes on her own (she’d had a good walk first) and she was fine.
We are working at keeping her off the sofa – she is pretty good if we are around but will not miss a chance if we are not looking!
At least we can shut the door on the sitting room when we are not in there.
She has also spent time with my mum and seems happy at either location.
She is just happy being with people.

Wilf the lurcher pup

REHOMED !!

Just a quick update on Wilf who’s doing great, he goes everywhere with us and yesterday we took them to Durdle Door.
We have a little remote control beep collar on him that we use when we are riding the horses to get his attention and it’s brilliant and saves lots of calling and whistling lol so we tend to use in when we go out in crowded places.
Anyway here are a few pics.

Pugsy

Pugsy has now found a home !!

Pugsy is three years old and very obviously a Pug.
As you can see she has one leg missing due to an attack by another dog before she came into the Rescue.

She is a lovely girl and after initial uncertainty meeting the other dogs here she has settled in well with them.
She is quiet at night and clean in the house.
She is a character as all Pugs are and lovely with it.
She has been settling in and getting used to life here before she comes on a walk with the others.
They can all be a bit raucous when out so I wanted her to settle in and get to know them all well before coming on an adventure with us.
She will be out with us over the weekend.
More to follow on her progress once she has been on a walk.

Millie

Millie has now found a home !!

progress update: 02/05/2016

Millie has settled in well at Pauline’s.
Happy to go for a walk and she doesn’t pull on the lead but also equally happy to trot around the garden and then have a lie down on the settee.
She is affectionate and well behaved.
Millie would make an ideal companion for a retired person who can’t hike a mountain but instead will do shorter walks with her.

Millie is a Spaniel cross, approx 10 years old.
She would prefer to be the only dog not being that keen on the company of her own kind.
She loves people and is as happy as Larry having all the love and fuss just to herself.

More to follow as she settles in.

 

Patrick

Patrick has now found a home !!

progress update: 02/05/2016

Getting much less scared with people
still not good with dogs will bark but walks well on a lead (we have him on a harness)
sleeps most of the day and loves his walks but doesn’t need loads of exercising,
fine to be left alone for a few hours – we leave doggy mats down when we leave him for longer and he uses them (never wees in the house!),
very loving and loves being in warm dark places!
Knows basic commands – sit, leave, stay, get down, bed etc , currently working on lie down!!
