This is an update on wee Holly and her new family.

Sally thank you so much for the update and the photo of you all.She certainly looks as if she is really enjoying life.It's really good and so so pleased "our" Holly has settled in so well. Your girl is just so lovely too xx.

 

 

Dear Ena,

Holly is settling in really well. This morning we went down to Tenstmuir and both Holly’s had a great time on the beach and in the sea. I’ve attached a photo of us all in the garden. What a lovely day it’s been and hopefully we will have lots more of these soon!

We have decided to call new Holly, Polly, as although they don’t seem to notice the difference, at least we know which dog we’re talking about!!

Thank you again for finding such a lovely girl for us to re-home,

Best wishes,

Sally & Mark

Posted: 28th February 2014

Look who we met when we were coming out to come to the kennels, Sandy was rehomed about rthree years ago, and doen't see us very often, but he goets really excited when he see's us. You would think he wouldn't remember as he was only here for a very short time. Janet ( his mum ) says if we take the car and leave the ven at home he is right in at the van to see where we are, bless him. He gives the most beautiful smile too. Great to see you both xxx

Susie x >>
Posted: 27th February 2014

This is small dog's favourite position. When picks her up she wriggles back till she is like this as it is obviously really comfortable. Up dozing since 4.30 this morning. I think small just loves cuddling up on the couch. Hard going, especially as Poppy wants to run and jump and we have more than a month to go before she can. Worth it though as we adore them. Duncan is doing not too badly at the moment and his latest results were a bit better. Long may it last x
Lorraine thank you for the update on Susie she's a wee star ! as are Poppy, Duncan hope Fergus is doing ok as well. You've done so well with your guys. xx

Some of you may remember Shadow he was found in woods in the heat wave we had last year. He was dehydrated and had sores all over his body.

It was sooo lovely to see " our " Shadow and he looks so very well, coat gleaming and so silky soft now, thanks to all the love and care he gets from his mum Jinty. xxx

Ps: Still loves his tennis balls.

Rusty x >>
Posted: 21st February 2014

Rusty is already settled in his new home. He was really well behaved in the car and has thoroughly enjoyed meeting the rest of the family ! He had a nice walk with Holly and Alex and then played 'fetch' in the front room. He's even managed a little bit of food.His tail never stops wagging and he sits on everyone's knee. You can already see that he's going to be a fantastic family dog. A great big thanks to you because the beginning of the week was so sad. See you soon when I return the harness. Take care . Hilary x
So pleased he has settled in so well, but we knew he would he is so friendly xx

Posted: 19th February 2014

Sadly a not so Happy Hound !!!
Hi.. This is poor wee Fraser recovering from operations on both his back knees where the Cruciat ligaments snapped.. It will take about 3 months of care to hopefully get him back to normal.. For the first month he can only get 5 min walks.. And he is on a strict diet.. So the poor we soul doesn't know what's going on.. But it was go for the operation or !! Well we didn't even consider the other... Xx
Eileen & Bob so sorry to hear about wee Fraser, but he couldn't be in better hands,as he'll get all the love and care he needs to recuperate.

Baxter update xx >>
Posted: 19th February 2014

Hi Ena, Frank and all my Friends at Second Chance,

Just a wee update. I’m doing fine and have settled in really well. I play with lots of toys every day and eat everything at mealtimes. Liz has got me a neck torch like Megan’s so I can see where I’m going when we go for a walk in the dark. It’s pretty neat and I look really cool wearing it.

I made friends with Jack and Dexter at the week-end – you remember they were adopted from Second Chance by a nice lady called Liz who is a reporter. She said I’m just her kind of dog and I’m as cute as a button.

Take care and I’ll keep in touch.

Lots of licks

Baxter x

Great news about wee Baxter knew he just needed the right home with people who understand the wee lad thank you. Nice to hear you met up with Jack & Dexter they are lovely boy's too xx.

Just put a photo on from the ones taken when he was here, he has a much more comfy chair now !!!
