Hello Everyone

When mum, dad and the family went on their holidays I went to stay with my auntie eslpeth. She has lots of doggie friends and took photos of us on a day out to Crammond. Mum thinks the one in the car is brilliant and thought you might like to see it (look how beautifully I am sitting in the centre of the photo!).

I celebrated my third birthday on sat, 16th August and have been with my new family for nearly two years now. Everything is great, lots of lovely walks, belly rubs, good food and I get to sneak on mum and dad's bed for a cuddle in the morning - it's a dogs life!!

Loved seeing you all at Bark in the Park, had a great day out - hope you raised lots of money.

Love
Ellie x x

Misty >>
Posted: 16th August 2008

Hi Ena,

Just wanted to say how Misty (was Millie) is getting on great with us. She is the most affectionate lovable dog we have ever known.

She is off the lead on her walks and always comes back. We take her to the beach everyday and goes running most mornings with me.

We had a couple of problems with her wandering off at the beginning but she never went far but now she stays in and around the garden and always comes back when we whistle.

Misty is very happy and so are we with her!

Thanks so much for letting us have Misty!

Hannah and Tim x

Millie >>
Posted: 16th August 2008

Hi Ena
Sorry I haven't been in-touch. I have been trying to phone you but got no answer. Millie is doing well. She has been to York on Holiday and goes Beagle Racing every Sunday. She is such a good Dog, we couldn't have asked for a better Dog. When I am on my own she looks after me. She is more my dog than my Husbands, but we both love her very much. When we had her for only the first five weeks, she slipped her harness and ran away. However She come home all by herself. No one picked her up. I think Millie loves being with us, just as much as we love having her here. I have enclosed a photo of her. Please see attached.

Kind Regards

Karen

P.s And I must Thank YOU for giving me a chance of owning such a wonderful Dog (Millie)

Karen
so pleased Millie has settled so well all she needed was people who understood her breed.

Bailey & Bryn >>
Posted: 25th July 2008

Hi Ena, Mhairi and Frank,

I was just on your website again and thought that if I had the room I would take both Cloe and Poppy as they both are so sweet looking and would get on so well with Bryn.

This is just a wee update as I have not been in touch since adopting Bailey from you in December. Bailey was actually 3 and 1/2 months when I got him and not 4 and 1/2 months as we originally thought. My little puppy is now my little pony and still growing as he is not a year yet. Bryn can actually walk under him and often does to get to his favourite chew. I have to say I am amazed at how well adjusted Bailey's personality is considering his days on the streets. He is a big softie and follows me into the kitchen and lays at my feet with his head on my foot. He has picked up the basic commands very well but as he is Rhodesian Ridgeback/Alsatian cross he likes to think he is is the boss. :-D Clearly having been on the streets he is quite territorial about his food and gobbles it down and goes for Bryn's as well but this was simply sorted by feeding them in separate rooms.

They curl up on the sofa with me but it is quite funny as Bailey does not know his own weight and he just flops against me. Too funny! Bailey and Bryn still have some territorial issues but we are working on that. It is so interesting to see their different personalities come out based on their breeds. Bryn likes to herd Bailey and Bailey likes to 'shoulder' into Bryn which is typical ridgeback. They love their hikes and walks and whilst Bailey seemed terrified of the water at first, he is now obsessed with it and jumps in at every possible chance. He won't go where he can't stand but he splashes and plays and sticks his head under the water looking for treasures. Makes me laugh to no end to see him so happy and adventurous.

Bryn is as sweet as ever and loves getting out for his hikes and swims.

I have included a couple of photos for you of both boys. Bailey when I first got him and how he is now along with his big Brother Bryn.

I hope this finds you all well and happy rehoming. Every dog deserves a loving home and you all make that happen. Well done!!

Cheers,
Lynda, Bryn and Bailey xxx
