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.

Posted: 2nd October 2011

Well another one of the puppies finds himself a great new home, his brother in the pic is Max and his mum wanted to call this wee one Spencer then Mike said can you hear us calling on the dogs Max and Spencer sounds like M & S ha ha ha, so they have decided on Buddy which suits the wee man he was always the outgoing one in the litter. X x
***************
Hello Auntie Ena & Uncle Frank,

I just wanted to let you know how I am getting on.

The first day was a bit scary. I was frightened at all the strange noises that I hadn't heard before.

My big brother, Max, kept growling at me but, hey, I'm brave and he doesn't scare me. He's a big softie really and I'm so lovable that he's liking me more
And more each day.

I did my first pooh on the grass yesterday and my Dad gave me a big cuddle.

My Mum put a strange thing called a collar around my neck and I've been scratching like mad trying to get it off!!

I like my grub!! I like the grub that Max gets too but Mum keeps me away from it but I'm soooo fast and I sneak in and pinch a bit.

On Wednesday, I got to go and see the Vet who gave me a complete going over (even in my private bits!) and she gave me some small treats to distract me whilst I got my injections. Mum got worming tablets and spot-on flea stuff but she's waiting a few days before she gives me it as I was a wee bit sick after my injections.

Today my Mum put me on my new lead and we had great fun playing in the garden. I didn't like it at first but then I didn't bother about it too much.

My right ear keeps going inside out but I had a look in the mirror and I think it makes me look cute so I'll keep it that way for as long as I can.

I am helping Mum type this email to you cause I just wanted to say a very big THANK YOU to you both for looking after me and loving me so so much until I had a permanent home. I'm gonna come visit you all in a couple of weeks or so.

Lots of licks and kisses.

Buddy xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

PS I don't sleep all night ~ I start barking and yelling at around
5.00 am just to annoy Mum & Dad

PS: I am the pup on the right of the pic with the white on my nose, Ena says I was always the wee one who had too much to say for myself, what a cheek hehehe xx.

Banjo & Bumble >>
Posted: 15th September 2011

Hi
I just wanted to drop you a line. I don't know if you remember, we adopted Banjo some 6 years ago now. I think a friend of yours brought him up from Warrington after we saw him on dog rescue pages. I just wanted to let you know he is still fighting fit and is just the best dog in the world. He is now got a sister, an English Springer Spaniel called Bumble who is coming up 4 and they are inseparable. I couldn't live without either of them. Also, more additions to the family. We adopted our 3 daughters, 3 years ago (all sisters) so from going from no dogs to 2 and no kids to 3 not forgetting our 2 cats you can imagine its a busy household.I was going to attach a picture of our Mr Banjo for you but I can't seem to be able to. Just wanted you to know how happy we are and how wonderful Mr Banjo is. Keep up the good work you are all amazing - take care
*********

Hi Carolanne,

How lovely to hear from you. I have often wondered how Banjo was doing, but didn't for some reason have your phone number. Delighted to hear from you and would love piccie'a.
Changed days from the day we visited eh !!

Take care
Ena.
xxxxxxxxxxxx for Banjo and his buddies canine / feline & human

Jay >>
Posted: 12th September 2011

Well it is really great how things turn out here at Second Chance.
Heather & Simon called about 2:00pm today they already have Ben a choc Lab from us, they were looking for a pal for him. So I told them about Jay our wee collie mix, so they came up and by 3:00pm had adopted Jay. I'm sure she will be great buddies with Ben. Heather's, Mum and Dad also have 2 Second Chance girls, so home check done previously meant Jay could go home right away. As this will be Jay's third home not counting her stay here, this is indeed a very happy ending /new beginning for this lovely wee girl xx

Hi Ena,

Just some pics to show you Blue with his new best friend, ripping the
house to shreds and just creating chaos together. Little Anakin has
found his new best friend and PIC (partner in crime)!

Oh and yes, the paper on the floor was Saturdays mail. Needless to
say, we never got a chance to read it!
