Sadie
Sunday 25th April 2021
Today I said Goodbye to Sadie as she was ready for the next stage of her life.. her forever home. Sadie arrived from the RSPCA Surrey Woking & District Branch a very poorly shut down girl needing help.... They did not want to place her in kennels as it would not have been in her best interests so we were asked if we would like to take her in and of course the answer was yes. Sadie has moved forward in leaps and bounds having gained weight with a lovely rounded rear, her bones no longer protruding!! her coat is shiny, She is clear of Mange, her bald areas are covered with new hair growth, her ears which were a…

Failed Foster... 😉 When I approached Sandra to ask if she would be interested in fostering one of the little terriers .. she jumped st the chance .... she had given one of her terriers to her mother to help her cope through lockdown so only had little Eric at home ... introductions went well and Molly ventured forward to a completely new lifestyle with her new best friend Eric a very laid back JR ! Molly settled in very well to her new environment Enjoying regular walks , regular meals , Lots going on as we had her spayed, vaccinated , wormed & flea treated, she healed and recovered well and took everything In her stride ..…
Dogs on Holiday
Sunday 18th April 2021
We were fortunate to get a bit of time away taking the dogs with us...They all loved the beach and had a dip in the sea except Dinky (my dog) who is now 12.5 years old and prefers to keep her paws dry! Luna loved the water and swam most days, Eli the Lab with neosporosis learnt to read the waves really well and by the end of the week was pretty confident wading out, Rachel would have been so proud of the dog he is today! Sadie's reaction to the beach was priceless and we managed to coax her in for a paddle! She is still currently longlined as this young girl has had a long journey…

Luna has received a huge amount of interest from Day 1... All emails were placed in to a folder to be looked at when time permits ...Time is spent with the dogs , our family business and family .. and when we can get away for a couple of days... especially now with less restrictions on Covid Rules. The last thing I need is yet more emails because you have not heard anything ... A decision will be made in my time ..The right decision . Thank you for your patience . As you can see Luna is having a lovely time on a short break with us ..

Bandit
Wednesday 7th April 2021
After a two week trial Bandit has been adopted ... in fact - around day 4 i heard those words .. "he's staying "😉 Bandit needed an experienced handler, someone prepared to spend the time with him and guide him forward ...Time to Bond , Time to Train, and not giving in at small hiccups, !! Time for Bandit to settle with the resident GWP who clearly said " You cannot be serious !! " but by day 4 she had changed her mind to "actually I like him" as they slept side by side on the floor !!! There are two young children in the family .. who loved Bandit straight away and he them ... their daughter pictured…

Update on Luna .... Luna has settled in so well she is a joy to have around ... Over the past week I have watched her open up to us and her new environment... She is nose to ground, enters cover happily , and this morning stopped to flush ... and came back when called ! also she initiated herself to our area with the roll In 'Eau de foxy' !! Fabulous temperament, very friendly happy girl . We feel her future would be best placed in a Working/Pet/Active home As I sit writing this she has wandered over and laid at my feet ... Truly a lovely girl .

BRAR are proud to donate to SperingCourt Pet Food Bank run by Roy Steggles. Roy mentioned a few weeks ago they were running very low on Pet food so I contacted him to ask what he needed... Cat food was in very short supply but he would be grateful for anything... This food is relayed out towards pets in need in Glastonbury, Wells and surrounding areas..
Holly
Thursday 11th February 2021
The young beautiful Holly came to us early December ...We kept her quiet due to Christmas being so close but also because of the current situation with everyone wanting a dog! Holly was very timid on arrival but soon relaxed within her new environment.. eager to please she was a pleasure and a joy to work with .. she also came away with us for her first Christmas, ran on the beach and dived into the sea.. she loved it and we enjoyed her .. Holly went on trial two weeks ago to a young family who sadly lost their springer spaniel a while ago and felt now was a good time and had been looking for a while…

BRACKEN UPDATE
Sunday 15th November 2020
2 and a half months have passed with no sighting of Bracken.. As a family we are truly Broken and the pain is unbelievable. Something/Someone stopped Bracken from returning.. he would never not come back. Pack leader, Pack protector, always making sure there was harmony and helping the many troubled dogs that came our way, (Video on facebook as unable to upload here) Over 20 years plus we have walked that land and some of the photos in this video are taken on the very land adjacent to where he disappeared from. We have never encountered any problems until September 1st 2020... A rural off the beaten track area! We have offered a £5000 Reward for the safe return…
