Happy Hounds

Since it opened in 1999, hundreds of dogs have passed through the kennels doors and have gone on to wonderful new homes and families. On this page you will see some of those lucky dogs in their forever homes, and hear how they've settled in and how they've enriched their new families' lives.

Hailey Bailey >> Posted: 8th November 2005 Dear Auntie Ena, At last!! One of my parents has figured out how to work the camera/PC thingy and I have sent you some of my holiday snaps. It was really nice to see you all again the other day and I am glad to see you still keep a good supply of sausages handy! Mum said to tell you that I have not been well the last couple of weeks and had to go to the vet. He said that I had kennel cough and I have got tablets to take, but I should be better soon, I am going back for a check up tomorrow so Mum will let you know what he says. Dad bought me a new car this weekend, it is HUGE!!! I've got lots of space and my own air-conditioning in the back so that I can go everywhere with Mum. I really love my new home and have lots of family that give me loads of love and attention I will come and visit again soon lots of love and kisses Hailey Bailey xxxxxxxx Share this Hound: http://secondchancekennels.org/?p=hh&hid=54 (Copy & Paste)

Jess >> Posted: 24th October 2005 Jess was one of four puppies we took in when we first started about eleven years ago, sadly when she was ten her mum contacted me to say her circumstances had changed and she could no longer keep Jess, so of course I took her back. She wasn't with us too long before Robin and his mum & dad came along and offered her a lovely new home and this is her back for a visit, she looks great and is obviously very happy with her new life and family.

Billy >> Posted: 21st October 2005 Some of you may remember Billy the Rottweiler who was on dogpages looking for a home as his elderly owner couldn't cope, well his story goes Howard (Daffy's husband) travelled 437 miles from south Wales to Second Chance kennels in Fife. We took Billy in and assessed him as he was thought to be dog aggressive and all he wanted to do was play poor soul. The great news is he has now found his "forever" home, but had to travel another 222 miles to find it, so all told he has travelled 659 miles but it has been so worth it, and he has two German Shepherds for company. Here are a few photos of the big lad. The first one is him on his way home and the rest are of him and his new pals enjoying life in the Scottish highlands! P.S. Ena would like to say a really big thank you to Elaine & Howard who got Billy all the way from Wales to Fife, he wouldn't be in his forever home without them.

A family came to visit and fell in love with him straight away, they had had springers before. Well, Gizmo became part of their family and here is what he says about his new home: Here I am sitting in garden of my new home. My family think I am just the beez knees and who can blame them - I am such an 'andsome Enry. Love to all xxxxxx Share this Hound: http://secondchancekennels.org/?p=hh&hid=46 (Copy & Paste)

He is great fun and enjoys going down the beach every day for a swim and to chase all the seagulls. I attach one of his best pictures.

Harry the St. Bernard >> Posted: 8th October 2005 Dear Nana Ena Just "paws" to send you my love, it has been 15 month's since I came to my new Mum and Dad and of course my two little brothers Toby & Brodie. Sorry it has been so long but I had to wait until my body grew again to fit my head, now I can see out of my eyes and the skin does not cover them I can see to write. Brodie and I keep telling Toby what a wonderful place Second Chance is, we till him it was our second chance and that Nana Ena and Grandad Frank are out guardian angels. We also see Ben peeping through the bar window from the back of his Dad's car when his Mum comes to pick him up. As you can see from the photograph the three of us had great fun playing on the beach. I'm a bit chunkier than when I came here, but Dad says I have a little way to go yet. We have our own three piece suite, I have the couch (just right for resting my head) and the little boys have a chair each. The other photo is of me having a little snooze in front of the fire - trying to keep up with Brodie wears you out (will he ever grow up). Must go have just heard "biscuits". Lots of love, sloppy wet kisses Harry Share this Hound: http://secondchancekennels.org/?p=hh&hid=38 (Copy & Paste)
Willow >> Posted: 5th October 2005 This wee girl had practically no hair when we rehomed her and just look at her now! This is what her "Dad" says about her: Ena, Quick e-mail to let you see Willow. Doing well and as the photo shows she's nothing like the wee dog that came to us last summer. Best wishes, Neil Leitch Share this Hound: http://secondchancekennels.org/?p=hh&hid=37 (Copy & Paste)
Robbie >> Posted: 3rd October 2005 This wee lad is Robbie, who went out to a home when he was 14 weeks old.

HERE ARE A COUPLE OF PHOTOS FOR YOU TO ADMIRE THEY ARE BEFORE AND AFTER HE HAD HIS LAST HAIRCUT. BYE FOR NOW, YVONNE AND ALL THE BOYS Share this Hound: http://secondchancekennels.org/?p=hh&hid=36 (Copy & Paste)
Broxi >> Posted: 29th September 2005 Hi, the regulars on here might just remember me, I was the Rottie who had the big op on his leg. Well I had been at the kennels from January through to June, there were quite a few people offered me a home. After much deliberation Ena let me go (but did not sign me over) to a new home. The family came and walked me regulary Mhairi and Ena did a home visit and I was off to what they hoped would be my "forever" home as I had been through so much. Unfortunately, it didn't work out in the new home so I was brought back to the kennels. Ena, Frank and the girls saw quite a change in me. I was quite subdued, not the fun loving big guy who had gone out. So, here I was, back at the kennels. I didn't mind too much, I loved everyone here and I got lots of walks in the field, but it wasn't the same as having your own home and family. Lots of people were interested in giving me a home (well, can you blame them!), but Ena was going to be extra careful this time, she wanted to make sure that my new family would be committed to giving me a forever home. A family who had only ever owned rotties before came up to take me a walk, and then they came again, and again, and again! Ena eventually let them take me home, and here I am! My new forever home is great and my family have started their training and are doing well, I am getting on with the cat she even comes on walks with me! I miss Ena and Mhairhi but have been to see them and they were quite well behaved despite their excitement. Anyway, I'd better go, those humans aren't going to walk themselves! Sorry for the long story, but I've been through quite a lot for such a young dog. I've sent a couple of pics so you can see how handsome I am: Share this Hound: http://secondchancekennels.org/?p=hh&hid=35 (Copy & Paste)
