Blue & Timmy xx >>
Posted: 21st June 2014

Hi Ena,
Thought you'd like this picture of Blue, showing all of his 13 1/2 years of age after he won 4th prize in the local riding festival's senior section of the dog show - not bad for an old croc! Hi young brother Timmy has improved considerably and now has his own circle of energetic doggy friends to play, climb and swim with just about every day. Ben, spends near all his days sleeping, but is content with that.
All in all, everyone is enjoying life in the Borders.
We also regularly meet up with James, another 2nd Chancer, on the village green!
Best wishes
Linda, Thanks for the update, aw Blue looks so distinguished, so pleased young Timmy has found sme pals to plat with. Say hi to James when next you see him. XX
Linda doesn't he look

Update from Holly xx Thank you so much Poppy Phil and of course Holly xxx

Dear Ena and Frank, I'm just catching up on our mail so I thought I would take a break and give you an update on our lovely girl's second day. As I said to you yesterday Ena, Holly has settled as though she has always been here. Nothing fazes her , she would happily play all day. She loves going out for walks and shows no interest in people or other dogs. She went shopping today in St Andrews and Cupar (bought squeaky teeth, a rubber pig and a soft football, which has now burst and shed all it's innards!). She is excellent on the lead and is very responsive and loving. She only wants to be part of everything that is going on. We went up the nature trail last night and she 'found ' a stick, WOW, you would have thought she had found a bar of gold! Dogs certainly know how to live and could teach us how to enjoy life..... as you can see we are certainly enjoying our life with her! Phil has just said 'We are very lucky' We will keep in touch. Take care and pass on our regards to everyone. I better get back to work.

Hi it's me Holly, what can I say ! I have found the PERFECT HOME. xx

We had visitors at the kennels a lovely couple who adopted Paris a wee older lad from Second Chance eight years ago, sadly Paris is now at Rainbow Bridge. We all know he will be happy to know his mum & dad have adopted me. I have not had much luck lately was even advertised as a free to a good home. I was very lucky someone spotted me and brought me here,

The best news is I have found such a wonderful wonderful home, my folks are besotted wiith me, Ena has just spoken to my mum and the joy in her voice when she was speaking about me, was so good to hear, I'm their special girlie, their only one and there are no children just me my mum and my dad, doesn't that sound sooooo good. Finally I belong, even been out and had new toys ect. for me I'm feeling very lucky and blessed. Lots of love Holly xx.

Hi Ena and Frank
This is me with the oldies - Christine & Ron at Gullane beach.
They say that I'm such a lovely dog and just a joy to be around. I'm gaining confidence and Ron has been teaching me sit, stay and down and I now walk nicely to heel on my lead with my tail in the air! although I'm off lead now too, and keep turning round to make sure I don't get too far away.
I also jumped in the car by myself for the first time today.
Thank you for rehoming me, I'm loved so much and get loads of cuddles
Love
Poppy x
My puppy your so very clever working a computer now, love the photo's so pleased your having such a good time. xxx

Posted: 11th June 2014
Hi Ena , it's been a while since we were up at kennels but mum keeps up to date on your website. We are getting on a bit now, we will be thirteen this year not that you would know it if you saw us playing at the beach which is our favourite place. We both keep well although Murphy has a few problems with his back. He had a fall and injured himself but the vet keeps an eye on him. Keep up the good work and we may get up to see you. Attaching a photo which we hope you can see. Love Murphy and Brodie

Hi guys tell your mum thanks for the update, it's great to see you both and your looking good.So pleased your enjoying life to the full xxx.

Bailey & Oscar xx. >>
Posted: 8th June 2014

We had visitors yesterday it was so good to see them all, even though Victoria keeps us updated with photo's and video's of Oscar and Bailey.

When Stetphen and Victori adopted Bailey as a young pup, they didn't have any family. Since Oscar who is now three years old came on the scene you never see one without the other it's so lovely to watch.Bailey also has a great extended family who also all adore him. Can't believe its six years though Bailey xx.
