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.

Really liked these 2 photos from yesterday - Poppy exploring up at the back fence and Susie trying to peer through the 2 planters in the hope that the fence has developed a wee window so that she can see Keira next door. She stands there and wuffs in the hope that Keira will come out and wuff back. Hope things are going well. Us x
Lorraine thanks for the updates I have a wee folder on the computer with all their pics. Don't they look like two different wee girls seem so confident now XX

Wilson update !! >>
Posted: 26th April 2012

Barbara thank you so much for the updates he looks well settled xxDear Ena and Frank, I hadn't been on the site for a while so it was a huge shock when I looked today and saw your message about Kirsten. I met her and Jade on 7th March when I came to meet Wilson. I only saw her for a short while but I knew she was lovely and really had the dogs' welfare at heart. She loved Wilson to bits and was going to be so sorry to see him go. Jade was a lovely girl too, they were both just smiley ladies! So sorry to hear the news, you really will miss her.
A wee cheer up for you with some photos of Wilson having a ball in the Pentlands. He still loves me even after his worming pill this morning! He's coming on fine, we're going along to a class to see if we can cure him of his snarling at other dogs, the lady didn't seem to think it would be too difficult, she agrees with us that he's scared, so here's hoping, if that gets sorted he will really be the perfect dog! Once he's happy in doggy company again we can maybe even come along to Bark in the Park in the 'summer'. Thanks again for letting him come to our house. Best wishes, Barbara and family x

Posted: 26th April 2012

Ricky came by for a visit, he tells me he wants a wee playmate. Some of you may remember Ricky as the wee Chihuahua that had the sore leg ! He has come on so well with his family who as you can see by the look of adoration on his mum's face.Guess what the magic word was to get him to look at the camera ? Yep you've got it " sausages " he just loves them and it was lovely to see them xx

Nicky >>
Posted: 24th April 2012

Morag, very well worth the wait she is looking great, thank you xx

Dear Ena and Frank
Here is my long overdue email!!
Nicky has settled in brillantly and is a dear little dog. She is very
affectionate and is a lovely companion and goes everywhere with me.
She is very patient with the boys and lets them fiddle with her ears
and paws without a complaint. They both love her very much and regularly tell her!!
She has stopped doing her business in the kitchen (apart from maybe the
very odd occasion) and has got into the routine of going outside for
toileting - which is good. She is eating well and enjoying many treats
as well! I'm so pleased we got her.
I'm attaching a couple of pics although I do find her a difficult dog
to get a decent pic of as she never stands still long enough!
I still keep an eye on your website and I was sad to read about the
lady who helped you passing away. Please accept my condolences - I'm
sure you must miss her.Please pass my regards onto Frank. I hope you are both well. And we
send pats to Alfie as well.... of course!!

Posted: 18th April 2012

Thanks for the update Linda. ( just waiting on a pic of Mia )
Hi Ena
... here was me having the cheek to ask someone else to send you a picture when I haven't done so myself!... so here is the lovely Sally with her best friend Troy (he has a sleepover sometimes!) ... and of course there is Jill to make sure they behave ... finally Chelsea ... they all get on very well together and are on the look out for another friend to share the space by the fireside... Winston's rose is in the new garden ... and Chip and Misty are not forgotten (they have a place by the fireside too)...
best wishes to all at the kennels
Linda x

This is Sally who was adopted a wee while ago, I was a bit worried as Linda also had a cat !! Linda knew what she was doing and soon things in the garden were all rosy. Just shows what can be achieved if you really try xxx

Linda you know how you are looking for a wee soul meet Sparky xx

Rosie >>
Posted: 9th April 2012

Hi Ena.
Sorry I have not got back to you sooner. Been busy at work. Here is a photo of Rosie taken today up the Pentland Hills with me, Leigh, Amy, Lucy and our adopted Daughter Aimee. :-) She is a friend of Amy but always around.
It was a great day. We walked for miles and Rosie loved it. She is now coming out a lot more. We have had a couple of small issues with some dogs but overall she has been great.
I can only send 1 picture at a time with my iPhone so will send more following this one.
Hope you and Frank are well and thanks again for bringing Rosie into our lives as she is such a character.I will give u a call soon for a wee chat.
Thanks
Derek.

Thanks for the update Derek, she certainly looks like she is having a ball ( pardon the pun )So happy looking Frank and myself are so pleased for you all. xx

Star and Angel. >>
Posted: 5th April 2012

FOR SALE
Two mud coloured (once black) German Shepherds
WANTED
Cleaning Lady!!!
Lol - how are you all - some gorgeous dogs passing through your kennels.
That Star is just a bundle of mischief - leading my wee Angel astray!!!

He has systematically emptied our garden pond by soaking it up in his coat. Now all that's left is mud and the pair of them have just had great fun frolicking in it then running through every room in the house!! My wee Angel NEVER did that lol. They are being very quiet at the moment after mummy ranted and raved as she mopped every floor in the house ha ha. Mind you - for once Angel is dirtier than him!
Hahahahhaha, my you and Muir are having fun xx Look at him sheer innocence on that wee face xx

Billie ( was Millie ) >>
Posted: 3rd April 2012

Hi Ena & Frank
I just wanted to let you know how I am getting on in my new home. I am having a great time and it's really nice having Pepper as a big sister! We are having great fun playing in the garden (especially getting wet and mucky in the burn) and going for walks and Pepper is showing me the best places to find rabbits and squirrels to chase. Ashley is teaching me some new tricks which is super fun and I am doing really well. My name has changed to Billie which I like but I am still trying to find my beetle! 'Billy's Beetle' was one of Jacob and Jasmine's favourite books when they were younger so I like the new name.
Best wishes, Billie xxx

Billie put a pic in off your mum when Karen brought her to kennels. See I do this all the time with photo's if I get 3 sent I find another one to take up the empty space what am I like, 2's 4's 6's but not three or five's. Silly I know !!
Well Billie your auntie Karen certainly knew what she was doing when she brought your mum Ashley to visit. You have landed on all four paws and I'm so pleased Pepper has pepped up a bit having you around xxx

Snoop Dog. >>
Posted: 3rd April 2012

Well our wee lad has found his forever home, where he will be loved to bits. His folks have been looking for a wee dog for a long time now and when they Snoop it was love at first sight. First thing he did when we got into his house was to jump on the dining room table, but his dad wasn't fazed but his mum said it will be a no no !!! He is such a cheeky wee man. xx
