Happy Hounds

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.

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 Share this Hound: http://secondchancekennels.org/?p=hh&hid=2163 (Copy & Paste)

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 Share this Hound: http://secondchancekennels.org/?p=hh&hid=2161 (Copy & Paste)
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 Share this Hound: http://secondchancekennels.org/?p=hh&hid=2160 (Copy & Paste)
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 Share this Hound: http://secondchancekennels.org/?p=hh&hid=2159 (Copy & Paste)

Snuggles >> Posted: 27th March 2012 Hi there Ena and Frank, It is hard to believe that it is already 6 months since Snuggles and I found eachother with a little help from Second Chance. She has settled in here so well and I can't imagine life without her. She goes everywhere with me and we have had some lovely walks in the countryside.She had her wee op last week but is recovering well. Trying to stop a collie from jumping around is easier said than done! She was so lovely when I brought her home from the vet's, she stood at the front door and just gave the longest, most contented sniff - like she was savouring a fine wine. She is such a home buddy! I have attached a few of the most recent photos - the close up was taken on Saturday. The other photos are from our walk in the Clydesdale, down near Tinto. She had a great time that day, running across the hills and rounding the humans up - in true sheepdog style! I keep up-to-date with the comings and goings at Second Chance on the web-site. You have all got such big hearts and the wee waifs are strays are really lucky to come across you angels, who put them in touch with their forever homes. Lots of Love, Carol & Snuggy xx PS - Snuggles is still giving the best cuddles ever... Carol thank you so much for the photo's what a happy wee girl, so pleased you two found each other xx Share this Hound: http://secondchancekennels.org/?p=hh&hid=2145 (Copy & Paste)
Huggy Going Home >> Posted: 25th March 2012 Well I had to wait a wee while longer for my forever home, but boy was it worth it. My folks have had Newfoundlands before so know exactly what they are taking on with me. I have had such a good time here at Second Chance. Harry came up nearly every morning and took me down the park where I met loads of doggy friends, including Hendrix the Newfie and had great fun, I just love other dogs and have never had any problems with them.So now I'm off on my journey home but mum & dad say they will send pics for the web site and keep in touch. Lots of Love Huggy xxx Share this Hound: http://secondchancekennels.org/?p=hh&hid=2144 (Copy & Paste)
