Livi (Olive)

Thursday 1st July 2021

Gun Dog, Agility Dog, Fun Dog, Family Dog ... Absolutely right home choice for Olive ( now called Livi..) Perfect home choice for this beautiful young pup who made her choice straight away by melting straight in to the arms of her new owner and snuggling her head under her chin ... ( The fact I give all the dogs a pep talk on our journey on how to impress prospective new owners .. the do's and dont's is neither here nor there ...Livi played her part perfectly 😉😂) All dogs go forward on a trial but when I receive a message that read 'Judy .. she is the dog of my dreams' that said if all…

Fin

Thursday 24th June 2021

Introduced Fin to the water this early morn...bit reluctant to go in to start so I had him follow a confident dog in to the water and that was it....He loved it, Bounding in to retrieve his ball, very confident. Really pleased with how Fin is opening up and building up confidence in things he has not done before. I am really enjoying watching him open up and work things out.. He is Fab!!!

Frankie & Roxy

Thursday 24th June 2021

Frankie & Roxy have settled in so well into their new home and are loving their new life ... the children adore them and sent me a little video during their first week to tell me they promised to be good , not scream and not shout and they are going to keep them forever. Both Frankie and Roxy have bonded very well with the children and the new owners , they love the freedom they have around the home inside and out. I was very impressed to see a waistline developing on both the girls they were looking great . ( we have been given parental permission to show the photographs of the children with the dogs)…

POPPY

Wednesday 23rd June 2021

The beautiful Blue Roan Cocker Spaniel Poppy has been adopted and has adapted so well into her new life and home. I felt very emotional letting her go as she is such a loving gentle girl with a wonderful nature experiencing many new things including paddling in the sea, running on the sand whilst on holiday with us .. Her anxiety issues decreased massively whilst here and was happy to be left for short periods ... Poppy thrived in the company of the dogs around her and it was important to get the balance right within her new home. Poppy and her new best friend Lilly have become firm friends and have bonded so well together, they wait for…

Pumpkin & Squash

Friday 4th June 2021

A very long day for Pumpkin And Squash as they endured a 3 hour journey to their new destination following the passing of their late owner . A massive impact on their lives and we are honoured to have been asked to help rehome these beautiful elderly girls together upon recommendation from Yatton Vets . It takes someone pretty special to accept an elderly dog into their lives .. To take in two is Amazing . Upon our arrival and bringing the girls out together they both ran to find their space for a quick toilet stop then with waggy tails ran into the house to explore ! .. if I was to caption their arrival it would be…

POPPY UPDATE

Tuesday 18th May 2021

UPDATE ON POPPY In a week we have seen this beautiful girl change so much and adapt to a completely different lifestyle than the one she was used to. Poppy has separation anxiety and will bark when left alone, however her problem is not as bad as we thought it was going to be. Poppy has been very much loved and a soul companion for her owner who had an accident and had to move where sadly dogs are not allowed. Very hard to let go!! I have promised the family we will safeguard Poppy and find her an amazing home. Poppy is a little sweetheart she is fantastic with dogs and settled in here very well. We expected a rough first…

Buddy

Thursday 13th May 2021

5 years ago this little one found his way to us and became a member of our family ! His story went viral at the start of the New Year 2016 having been on the run for 11 days after being knocked over .. The stray no one could get close to .. Nicknamed....The dog from nowhere. 11 days of searching in torrential weather we eventually caught him in a humane trap..... This was the day his life began!! A forlorn little chap so frightened and in shock needed surgery for a badly damaged leg ....So many people helped fund his surgery which resulted in leg amputation and post op care requiring Physio & Hydrotherapy. Buddy…

HOLLY

Wednesday 12th May 2021

The lovely Holly has had a successful trial and settling in with her new owner who has embraced her with open arms. Holly felt very comfortable in her surroundings and immediately set about checking everything out to ensure it met her standards then went over to the gentleman who lifted her up and there was something special in that moment....... Holly has gone to the Forest of Dean to a retired gentleman who leads a fit and active lifestyle. He has always had dogs, is knowledgeable of the Terrier breed and little Holly will want for nothing. Holly you were a joy to have here, finding your place on the sofa in the evenings and curling up in to the…

Luna

Monday 3rd May 2021

Luna has had a successful trial period in her new home and settled in very well to her new surroundings and also with her new best friend Elvis. Within days they came back to me to say how much they loved her and were enjoying her company. Whilst Luna was here with us she mixed in well with all the dogs, she was a joy to take out and also came on holiday with us to Cornwall for a week, she loved the company, the forest, the sand and the sea and she was a joy. Whilst this was a very hard decision for her previous owner to make I would like to say Thank You for trusting us…
