Hi Helen<\/p>\n

At last I have got around to update you on ‘Sammy’ the Irish Collie
\ncross who we took on in May when he was about 5 months.<\/p>\n

He is now called Harry and is a joy to have around. He is the star of
\nour dog training class, bright as a button, sweet, friendly and so
\nwilling to please. For a collie he is remarkably calm and laid back.
\nHe is a little bit ‘wonky’ because of his earlier two broken legs –
\nespecially when he is tired!<\/p>\n

You may remember that part of the reason we were looking for another
\ndog friend was to help our rescue lurcher Maude, who although was
\ngradually getting less timid seemed to need a dog pal to help her
\nreach her full potential and confidence. And dear Harry has helped her
\nhugely! They are great friends – Maude is the dog pack leader – Harry
\ndutifully picks up and fetches the ball\/Frisbee when she drops it
\nrandomly! Harry has loads of dog friends up here in Worth Matravers
\nand especially loves going to the Square and Compass – he often goes
\nfor a walk with 7 or 8 other dog friends.<\/p>\n

\n

Thank you again for introducing us to Harry – we often say that we are
\nso lucky to have such a great dog in our lives!<\/p>\n

Daff Tambling (and Harry!)<\/p>\n

Sammy is now settling in to his new home!<\/p>\n

This is Sammy<\/span> who arrived with his leg in a cast.<\/p>\n

He was running loose on a farm with his sister who we are also trying to save before she is shot.<\/p>\n

Sammy<\/span> also had a previously broken back leg which had set itself and unfortunately the vet was unable to do anything for this leg<\/p>\n

.Sammy<\/span> is recovering well and although he will need moderate exercise for a while his front leg is healing well.<\/p>\n

He is slowly starting to learn to play and is a lovely natured pup.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
