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.

At last I have been CHOSEN, and it has been worth the wait!
This is me with my dad, sadly big Ace the Doberman who they adopted from here four years ago when he was five has sadly passed away. They now feel ready to have another wee dog in their life and they chose me.
Ena has already called about me I've had a great night and when she called I was away up the forest with my dad.

Posted: 25th November 2007
Hi everyone, it's Kyle here! You may remember I was brought to Second Chance when my owner passed away at the end of August, I needed a special foster home as my skin was in a bit of a state.
There had been a lovely couple at the kennels looking for a wee dog, Ena & Mhairi thought they might like me, so they gave them a call.
Suffice to say they were down the next day to see me and totally adored me, so a home visit was done and I went out on foster care. My mum & dad have had me at the vets and now my skin is getting better every day.
Ena laughed when Ewan & Margaret arrived today asking when was I going to be their very own special boy, their wee grandaughter Erin is my very special friend. So, the adoption papers have been signed and I am now officially Kyle McMillan!
Just want to say thanks to my folks for looking after me and giving me such a wonderful home, it's not many people who would lift their good carpet in case it was irritating my skin.
Love to mum / dad & Erin xxx
P.S. Ena says thank you so much for the donation to Second Chance.

Posted: 23rd November 2007
Hi, Macy here! This is me with my new family, mum's just off the phone to Ena to tell her we had a wonderful walk through the woods and I love the river. My mum walks quite a few dogs so I will have lots of friends to play with, in fact one came to visit while Ena & Frank were here! It was wee Dino (that's him with his mum Phyllis in the 2nd pic), he was adopted about three years ago when he was thirteen. I hope I look as good as him at nearly sixteen!

Update 24th Nov: Hi, just to give you an update Ena. Macey is having a fantastic time I think she must have covered every blade of grass and been up and down every hill in the Calder woods, she loves the river gets on great with all the other dogs and they all like her too. She has become bosum buddies with Poppy and Molly. I'll try and send pictures ASAP. I was wondering if instead of a beardie mix she may be a wire- haired pointer cross as she is an intrepid hunter but always comes back like a rocket when I call on her. So having woods with deer, rabbits, badgers, pheasants and foxes on her doorstep she is always on the move. Thanks again for choosing us as her new owners she is just a pleasure to be around.

This is Belle with her adoring mum & Auntie Jen, Belle was adopted from here in May this year and her mum was so delighted with her. She and Jen did a sponsored walk along, wait for it... part of the Great Wall of China! Well, they were going anyway but decided to get people to sponsor them and they raised £300-00 for Second Chance!
We would just like to say a huge well done and thank you, it is much appreciated Marion.

| Katie >> |
Posted: 23rd November 2007
This was a very welcome e-mail this morning, Katie was a wee Beardie mix who had quite a hard start in life, she had already had two homes before being chosen by Derek and his family.
Derek had been down to the kennels a few times looking for a Beardie type, then the last time he came he said he had put his name down for a Beardie puppy. Then we got Katie in, I phoned Derek and his family they came to meet her and that was it love at first sight. So off she went to stay in Glenrothes. She used to come and visit then one day Derek came to say that they were moving to Houston Texas with his job, I was devastated because I thought she would be coming back to us and this after having found such a brilliant home. However Derek asked why I looked so sad and I said what a shame she will need to come back and THEN Derek said no way she's going with us. So this is some pics of her in Houston Texas looking great.
I just wish everyone had the commitment of the Bence family.
Hi Ena,
It has been a while since we have sent you any pictures of Katie and how wells she is doing. Loving the cool weather this week and she is able to sneak on the golf course and dig in the sand. I love going onto your website and looking at all the pictures. Ena you are still doing a great job keep it up. We are coming over for a visit next year if everything works out and we will come and give you a visit. If you still remember us it has been a long time. Katie has been a great blessing in our lives and i don't know where we would be without here.
Bence family
Best regards,
Derek

Posted: 14th November 2007
My visitors from Friday came back today, When I was brought out to meet them I hared about and jumped on chair! In fact, I acted like a lunatic! Still, they loved me.
Well, a home visit was done and I am now in my new home and have grown quite attached to my young master already (I know who will play footie with me ).
Anyway Ena has called to see how I settled when they left me and my mum says it's as if I've always stayed with them, I don't even bother the cat!

Well, it didn't take me long to get "chosen"! This is me with my mum, dad was away getting some chicken wire to put along the bottom of the gate. I also have a big "brother", his name is Sam and he really liked me when he met me at the kennels.
The girls at the kennels are so happy to think I'm going to be looked after so well, I have a lovely big garden to play in so it's all looking good for me.

This is me snuggled up on my "mum's" knee, she is trying to fill the form out, but I just needed a cuddle. Then June (my mum, well I had chosen her all by myself) went away without me! But Mhairi and Ena took me to the vets to say cheerio to Lyn and have a check over and then I went to my new home. Toby xx

Posted: 21st October 2007
Hi,
As you can see Tia is growing up fast - she's doing really well.
She still has her toy rabbit from the kennels, but she has chewed all the stuffing out of it almost!
Photos were taken on my mobile phone, but hope you can make them out ok. She's still a bit frightened of the water, but she will play for hours with the hose in the back garden. She's also managed to burst about 4 footballs, but she still enjoys playing with them.
Kind Regards,
Linda
