Barney

Barney has now found a home !!

progress update: 16/7/21:

Just to let you know we have Barney home now, trip home fine, been out for a walk and so far so good!
I think he and Lottie will sleep well tonight – they haven’t stopped playing!

Barney slept well for his first night, finally settled around 11am but only with Lottie in the bed next to him after we had to drag her back down from her slumber on the Landing, they have def bonded well. Nice early start at 5am, but a nice quiet walk! Lottie declined and stayed in her bed. All good – fences not tested yet although we plan to keep him on lead when in garden for a while.

Barney update. All going well, he is a very sweet and happy dog. Vet check up all ok, he is on some paste to get his poo solid as bit runny but hopefully just food change/settling in. Both dogs getting on well, he loves Lottie. Tried him off the spike in the garden for around 3 hours with 4 of us strategically positioned and no escape attempts, we even had a search and rescue plan in place!! Doing a bit of home agility but need a bigger tunnel! Slept 11-6am last night! All good so far.

and loving our Lottie

Barney is 10 months old and needing a home.
He has been in two homes so far that we know of via the internet since being sold by the breeder and coming into the Rescue.
Barney is a very friendly dog and gets on well with other dogs.
He always spends lunchtime with the girls at the kennel he is boarding in. They all love him there and no doubt he pays particular attention to what flavour sandwiches are being unwrapped at lunchtime….

Barney needs a high fence as he has been practising his Commando skills climbing the ones in his previous home.

Thank you all !!

On behalf of all at DAWGdogs, we would like to say

‘Thank you !’

to everyone who has continued to support the Rescue with monthly Paypal donations.

We really appreciate that the last year has been difficult and challenging for many.

Every donation to the Rescue is a huge help.

Thank you so much!

Thank you NFAPG!

We would like to thank NFAPG for the generous donation of £2,000.

Thank you so much from all at DAWGdogs!

Sonny

Sonny has now found a home !!

progress update: 4/5/21


Sonny has had no problems settling without Hamish.
He is progressing steadily and is now coming close for cuddles, and we are getting a few tail wags.
He is beginning to warm to regular visitors, taking treats from them.
We went to the beach where he was not sure about the waves but was happy to sit in beach hut and watch people passing by.
He enjoys his walks and interaction with other dogs, although is still wary of people close by.


Sonny is very nervous in all situations, he is just beginning to take treats from our hands but is very easily spooked.
He is very nervous out walking but relaxes in quiet areas and enjoys a sniff about.
He occasionally tries to play with the others but mostly just watches.
He enjoys a good run in the back garden and returns to the house if he is unsure of anything.

Sonny arrived to us last Saturday.
He was in a dog pound and his time was up..
Sonny is around a year old and has not been treated well at all.
He will need someone who is patient with him and to build his confidence.

In memory of Jackie

On behalf of everyone at DAWGDogs, we would like to thank all the family and friends who during this very sad time raised £2000 in memory of Jackie for the Rescue.

We are deeply touched by everyone’s kindness and generosity.

The money raised will be a huge help with vets bills and the ongoing care of rescue dogs.

Thank you so very much.

We send our deepest sympathy for your loss.

“Jackie Etherington was a loving wife, mother and friend. She spent her time helping others, through both her career and her personal life.
Her dedication to her job earned her the title of ‘Work Mum’.
Regardless if you knew her in her proffesional capacity or as part of her family and friends, we can all agree that she added light to our lives where there was darkness.
Jackie was taken from us too early and we want to both remember and celebrate her life.

Jackie was passionate about her love of dogs. She loved many during her life including Jack and Paddy.
So in memory of Jackie we are raising money for DAWGdogs Rescue. It is a non-profit organisation staffed by volunteers.
Every penny raised goes towards the high costs of their mission to improve the lives of as many dogs as they are able to save. Their veterinary bills alone run into many thousands of pounds each year, and the costs of feeding, microchipping, sheltering and transporting those in their care are ever rising.”

Khan

Khan has now found a home !!

Khan arrived two weeks ago looking a bit skinny with overgrown claws.
He has now put on weight and had his claws trimmed.
Lovely boy who is getting on well with Jasper ex-DAWGdogs whose home he is fostering at.
Khan is four years old.
Laid back type of personality – couch potato like most greyhounds!
