Sabbo has now found a home !!

progress update: 10/12/11

Hi Helen,

Here’s a quick update on Sabbo.

He’s been with us since Wednesday afternoon and what a lovely little chap he is. He is really good with my two boys (3 & 4 years.) I do have to keep telling my youngest off because he likes to play dinosaurs and thinks Sabbo is playing when he runs away.
We gave him a bath last night and what a good boy he was, he loved the drying best off all, as he was being fussed.
He goes outside to do his toilet, although he had an accident this morning, but think it was excitment to see me.
I’ve taken him for a short walk with our dog Maddie, he is unsure of the collar and lead and got spooked by the cars going by, but walked well. He has a good appetite, you do have to watch your fingers when giving treats but he doesn’t mean to nip them.

He likes being in the same room as me, so you have to watch your step as he will lay right behind you. He was unsure off Brian when he came in from work but soon realized that he will get lots of fussing from him too :)
He hasn’t shown any signs of having a bad bone in him, all he wants is cuddles and to know he’s loved, he will make a good companion.

Will update again soon when he’s settled in a bit more. But for now here are some photo’s off him.

Sabbo is a real cutie and a bit of a poser in front of the camera.
He is approx 7 months old and a mix of something with a long body and short legs.
He is gentle and well behaved and gets on well with children

Lucky XXXXX

Hello everyone, Lucky here,to say I think I’m staying here in Ireland after all.
I’m quite an old lady,& my back legs still aren’t great, & I’ve settled in so well here, that Helen & my foster mum think it would be best if I stayed over here.
Thank you ever so much everyone for offering me a home, you are all soooo lovely,but I’m really not up to moving on again,she has bought me a memory foam bed, & I sleep by the fire at night now.
Lucky XXX

This is Lucky, she is like a dwarf collie, about the size of a corgi, with little dumpy legs, she looks a bit of a mess at the moment, but she’s having a major make over, & a bath, next week, & the bare patch on her back is growing hair again,

Poor dog has had nine years solitary confinement tied in a dark shed, & still has a scar round her neck from the rope as a momento., she’s extremely quiet, & just wants to be near you for reassurance & a rub, bless her my heart went out to her to think she woke every morning knowing she was just going to have to stand all day in that shed.

Pepi has now found a home !!

Pepi is a 3 year old neutered male Toy Poodle.
He really is a male despite the pretty pink dress!!
He is pictured at a fashion show in Petstop where he was the only dog slim enough to model the dress – poor fella although he just loved all the attention he was getting.
He’s a good natured, friendly, loveable little dog who likes nothing more than to curl up on someone’s lap.
He is a super pet and is non-shedding.
This does mean that he has to be clipped every 6-8 weeks

Murphy has now found a home !!

progress update: 26/11/11

Murphy has grown up so much since coming here to foster, he is now clean in the house, he is confident and happy
when out, happy to meet and greet most dogs, he can still be a little unsure if a bigger dog comes along, but mostly
hes just gets on with his walk and plays with the girls or chases the ball.

In the house hes happy to be crated at night or when i go out, he does not chew, but he may pinch things when your
not looking, saying that hes always happy to give it up after a short chase, hes is very good with toys, food no possessive
behaviour at all, and most importantly he is fantastic with the kids, he absolutley worships my daughter who is 9 and will
do anything for a cuddle with her, he really is adorable we all love him and feel he would make a lovely addition to any family.

regards
Niki

Hi, I am Murphy and I arrived with my brother Mickey.
We have lived on a farm where we pretty much pleased ourselves as to how we spent our days.
We are 7 months old, get on very well with other dogs and love all humans.
I am bunking in at the rescue with Seamus a Terrible Terrier as Mark calls them.
I haven’t yet learnt the rules of the dog room which state that blankets must not be thrown on the floor and chewed but I am learning that this extracts a “No ” from Helen.
Today I buried myself under one and was chewing it from behind I didn’t think she could see what I was doing.

Asha has now found a home !!

progress update: 4/12/11

Hi Helen,

We have had Asha for over two weeks now, but it feels like we have had her for ages.
Asha really has settled in very well with us, she is so gentle with our little girl, Naomi, who is nearly 2 years old.
She is such a well behaved girly and travels very well in my car; which has meant we go on a lot of adventures to lots of different places.
She is a great running companion for my husband and I which means she is keeping us all fit.
We spend hours kicking a football for her as that is her absolute favorite thing to do, she also loves squeaky soft toys for indoors.
We are pleased to say that Asha isn’t the only DAWG dog in our family now.
On Friday we all welcomed Ollie into my sister-in-law’s home, Asha and Ollie both liked running round the garden after balls together.
I am looking forward to years of love and fun with this lovely doggie of ours!!
Thank you so much to everyone at DAWG dogs for all you do.
You are all so wonderful.

Thanks again for everything,
From Tanya, Dave, Naomi, Asha the Doggie and Cassie the cat
