Happy Ending: Charity has gone to a home where they want to do Canine Cross Country and possibly agility with her. (02/04/11)

CHARITY

History: Charity came into our care late December after being in a car accident. She needed extensive specialised surgery which she received from one of the country’s top orthopaedic surgeons. Charity is now back to 100%, and is actively seeking a new home.
Description: Charity is a beautiful black & white collie who loves to play ball. She enjoys walks and energetic play. After all she has been through, Charity still remains a sweet natured young lady.
Rehoming criteria: Charity would be perfectly suited for agility training.

Happy Ending: Lily the pocket rocket terrier has been rehomed. Thank you for helping find her a suitable home. (08/04/11)

LILY

History: None.
Description: Lily is a little pocket rocket. She adores life and finds the world an exciting and interesting place to be explored at top speed! Her enthusiasm and lust for life is infectious and she will make the most wonderful, comical companion to brighten your day. Lily is living in foster care with other dogs and is a very happy go lucky member of the pack. She loves to play and is having to learn some canine manners about when play is acceptable and when it is unwanted. She is a confident and well socialised puppy who is not phased by dog se meets out on walks. She is a clever girl motivated by food and toys.
Rehoming criteria: Lily is looking for a new home who have previously owned dogs and preferably terriers. She is an active and busy dog who could excel at any training discipline once she is old enough. Agility, flyball, obedience would all be right up her street.
Child friendly: Lily will not be rehomed with children under the age of 8. She does mouth and play bite and children she lives with need to be old enough to understand how to handle this and continue to provide her with feedback on how to use her jaws appropriately so that she learns bite inhibition.
Able to live with cats: Lily has not been seen with cats or small furries. As a terrier she could have a stronger tendency towards chasing. However, she is young enough to learn to live with cats. Introductions would have to be careful and training methods would need to be positive and hands off.
Sex: Bitch
Neutered: Condition of rehoming that she is spayed at six months

LUCY

History: Lucy came to the shelter through no fault of her own as her owner could no longer care for her.
Description: Lucy is very energetic and loves to chase a ball. We have also tried her on the agility equipment at the shelter and she has great potential as she is a very quick learner and loves her walks and play. Lucy is an affectionate girl who can be a little nervous until she gets to know you.
Rehoming criteria: She needs a stable home where someone can help build her confidence and with a little training could be a fantastic dog for any agility enthusiast. Lucy is looking for a home where people are about most of the day and can give her the active lifestyle she needs. She has lived with cats and rabbits before and is ok around dogs but would prefer to be the only dog in the household.
Child friendly: Lucy is looking for a home where the children are 16 years or older.

History: This dear little pup was dumped and found in a drive way in a shopper trolley wrapped up

Happy Ending: Pixie has gone to a farming home. Lucky girl! (02/04/11)

PIXIE

History: Pixie was rehomed from North Wales, she is just under 2 years old, has had at least 7 homes and a litter of puppies already, yet she’s a remarkably balanced, relaxed dog.  A real sweetheart, ready to blossom in a new forever home.
Description: Black and tan kelpie, very, very calm in the house and great with young children. She really ‘comes to life’ outside and loves a good bound around, but does have that elusive ‘off switch’! Showing intelligence and drive, she is growing in confidence daily and is incredibly responsive. She’s been reported as not liking loud, young lads (dread to think why…) and whilst she hasn’t shown aggression, she will bark and back away – I’m sure this is through past experiences and can be worked through. She is nervous of new people but soon overcomes this and has been happy to play with strangers.  She has shown no interest in chasing livestock and has generally been a little star!

Rehoming criteria: Best to be rehomed with other dogs, has been fine with both dogs and bitches. Needs a job to do, like any kelpie, but is probably as well suited to an active family home as an agility home.
Child friendly: Yes - brought up around babies and young children. Currently on foster with a 4 month old baby and is perfectly behaved with him.
Able to live with cats: Yes, lived with a cat and showed no interest
Age: approx. 2
Sex: Bitch
Neutered: Will be
Vaccinated: Yes
Micro-chipped: Yes
Flea sprayed & wormed: Yes

Happy Ending: Smiler has found a new home.(08/04/11)

SMILER

History: Smiler came over from Ireland, he was found as a stray so we have no previous history.
Description: Smiler is short-coated with feathering, mainly white with red patches and a red tri head. A happy lad who is always smiling at you, especially when he is being naughty! He is so happy with life, loves other dogs and people, and wants to learn and do anything, he has had very little training, and all he knows is sit and paw, he is very good on the lead. 
Rehoming criteria: Smiler will need someone around for part of the day, he will need house training although he is clean in his kennel. He will need someone who will give him the training he so craves, and set firm boundaries for this happy go lucky lad. He will want an owner who loves cuddles as that he what he likes best!

Able to live with cats: Not tested, but would think fine
Age: around 10 months
Sex: Dog

TASHI

History: I took in Tashi for two weeks fostering but owing to circumstances beyond my control she has been left with me.
Description: Tashi is a small, affectionate, pretty terrier type girl. She knows basic commands and has a good recall. She has lived with a variety of other dogs without problems, she is a little nervous when first meeting new dogs but is fine once she knows they aren’t going to hurt her. She is fine with my two collies despite the fact they would rather she wasn’t there. She does try to play them but they just aren’t interested!
Rehoming criteria: Tashi would love a playmate, she loves everyone, young and old and would like an active home where she would get lots of cuddles. She loves her food and toys so would be very trainable. She is a lively, agile little dog who would enjoy agility.
