Teddy

Teddy has found a home !!

Teddy has been with us for a week now and has shown to be a happy, friendly and tolerant dog.
When he gets too close to our grumpy Oscar and Oscar has a snap at him he just runs away and comes to look for reassurance, a quick stroke and a kind word are usually enough to reassure him and he settles down.

For the few times I had him off the lead his recall call was fine.
When I arrive home he is so excited he almost jumps up into my arms.
And boy can he jump, he can get over a tall stairgate!!

He is fine with our dog friendly cat, I even had both of them waiting on the bottom stair for me when I opened the front door.
(He had jumped the stairgate).
He will chase her when she is on the floor but she just jumps out of his reach and she is certainly not frightened of him.

Teddy has just been castrated which has put paid to his jumping for a while.

All in all a super little dog and a pleasure to foster.


Teddy arrived in as a stray and not claimed.
He is approx three years old, gets on brilliantly with other dogs,
is good off the lead and taking his orders from the cat who rules the roost in the foster home he is staying in.

 

Nico

Nico has now found a home !!

This is Nico who owners have not returned for him after boarding him in kennels.

He is a lovely boy, very strong and not over keen on other dogs.
He will need an experienced home that will work with him on this.
What a shame that he has been abandoned and lucky for him that he is with people at a boarding kennels who want to help him find a good home

 

Oscar (a.k.a Durlow, a.k.a Boy)

REHOMED !!

progress update: 08/11/2015

Hi Helen I thought it was about time I updated you on Oscar’s progress.

We have had Oscar with us now for over a year and after a tricky start he has become a fantastic dog, full of life and energy with masses of character.
He charms every one he meets, is great with children and other dogs and will chase a ball for ages at top speed(which is pretty fast).
At the allotment shop that I run he has his own fan club who all have to see and play with him every weekend.

Thank you so much for letting him come to us.

Minka

Minka has now found a home !!

Minka is a young only about a year old.
She has clearly been very badly treated and is only just coming to Geoff her foster Dad.
She does let him put a lead on her to go for a walk now and enjoys being out.
She will take time to feel completely at ease around people.
She gets on very well with the other dogs at her foster home.
She is a quiet girl with a sweet nature.
It is a shame that she has been treated so badly.
Still, with time and patience she will learn that this won’t be happening anymore.

 

Lucy the lurcher

Lucy has now found a home !!

Lucy has been with us a while now and we would love to find her a home.

She is a quiet, calm and gentle girl and good off the lead when on her walks.
Lucy is two years old.
She is in a foster home with five other dogs but has not met a cat so we don’t know what she wuld be like with them.
She has been good with the children she has met.

 

Ricky (a.k.a Rocco)

Rocco has now found a home !!

Thank you Helen for letting us have Roco (aka now Ricky)
He is a lovely little boy and very loving and clever!
Today he got spoilt and had his new wardrobe brought glittery blue collar and matching lead/ blue harness/ a little jumper (as he gets cold as he’s so close to the ground! Lol) and a little squeaky toy and treats his size.
We had to get all this as we have never had such a small dog before and our wardrobe full of dog stuff doesn’t fit him!
Haha very happy with him!
Comparison in size next to my kelpie !
Haha
