Halle is a 12 week old girl Collie type puppy.
Her mother is a working farm dog working cattle.
The farm and the family who own it are lovely people and the Halle and her two brothers Sparky and Spot liked to sit in the field twice a day and watch their Mum work.





Hi Helen,
Please find attached a few photo’s of the Lab X who arrived this morning.
I’m not sure if she has a name (?) but we have been calling her Amber.
She is a friendly little girl (Lab size) who so far, has been good with the other dogs, cats and the children.
However, she is very playful and would probably be best suited to a family with older children.
Thanks,
Tanya





Mia is a 2 year old Brindle SBT with an exuberant personality and lots of energy.
She likes nothing more than a good run followed by lots of fuss from her owners.
She is food oriented so will do anything for a tasty treat.
Mia has been socialised with other dogs and plenty of people from birth, and she is super friendly with both other dogs and people.
She can become over excited with new people or situations so will need an experienced owner to work with her.
Mia is good with children. She currently lives in a household with a 9 month old.
She is very gentle when told to be, but would need supervision around children as all dogs do.
Mia is house trained, crate trained from a puppy, and can also do tricks for food rewards or a good pat on the back. She already knows how to sit, stand, lie down, stay, ‘kiss’ (lick hand), give her paw, speak (bark), watch (eye contact), find, fetch and roll over on command.
She is very trainable if you would like to teach her other commands.
Mia travels well in the car if you like to take road trips.
She has no health issues to date.
Mia is spayed and fully up to date with her vaccinations.
She has been trained to only play with her own toys, and if you say ‘leave’ she will not slobber on or chew anything that isn’t hers!
Mia is a lovely dog that will be missed by her family who are going to live overseas.




progress update from Pat:
Dear Aunty Helen,arrived at chez “Burling” safely, I was promptly given a warm bath and a bit of a brush and felt much better,the other dogs have received me warmly especially “Me Julie” who is showing me the ropes.

progress update from Jackie
Bruno has just arrived.
He’s about 7-8 months old.
He gets on with our dog Basil and submits when Basil tells him off.
He has already learnt to sit for his food and treats but hasn’t quite learned to wait yet.
He is fine with our cat anf ferrets.
He loves being petted but does have a habit of jumping up which I am working on stopping.
He responds well to a rattle can but just ignores a water spray when doing something he shouldn’t.
He would make a lovely dog for an active family.

Julie is looking for her special home.
She is a really nice little house guest, I hardly know she is here, not high maintenance at all, just a cosy place to sleep.
Treats – she likes a carrot for her afternoon snack!
If you can offer her a home please call Helen 01202 380467

Good morning all, me Julie here!
Well I’m having a great time with my foster mum and being a very well behaved little dog, going for long walks off my lead, coming back when called, clean in the house, quiet at night.
I’m not a high maintenance dog..once i’ve had my walk i’m up for snoozing on the sofa (or in the garden when its sunny.
I’m getting on well with the three dogs i’m bunked up with but would equally be happy as an only dog. If you need someone to love you (thats me!)




hi Helen photos of me julie who is a little sweetheart,
we spent the afternoon snuggled on the sofa,she was so tired,
she is eating well and appears clean in the house,
showing signs of protectiveness with me towards other dogs so will snap that in the bud,
not at all shy and always up for a cutch x
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!)

Hi Helen,
I wanted to send you a couple of photos of Jagger and Billie,

Hope you are all keeping well.
You have some lovely dogs on your site at the moment.
Lets hope they all find good homes soon.
All the dogs that we have adopted from you have been wonderful.
Take care.
