Ena

Hi there! I was at the car wash last week when I heard you on the radio and it was a coincidence as Brodie has been with us exactly 1 year past Friday.

I thought I would update you and say he has turned into an extremely sweet and loving wee boy and I just wanted to let people know that sometimes you wont get the perfect dog in a week or 2, you have to be more realistic than that.

It takes a bit of work and lots of patience and we have the reward of a very loyal, fun and happy dog. He was with 2 different owners for the first 5 months of his life so we figured that we owed him at least the same amount of time with us. I couldn't have asked for a nicer wee boy now so please don't give up on one just because he or she misbehaves at the beginning. They are just frightened and need you to show them the way forward.

Anyway thank you again Ena for letting Brodie into our lives and I have uploaded a few recent pics.

Regards

Alan

Hi Alan,

Thank you very much for the update on Brodie.Its good to know how well he has settled in and he has grown into a very handsome boy.Which is all down to you.

It's very true what you say, some people expect a rescue dog to be the " perfect " dog without spending time and putting some effort and patience and love into bonding with the wee soul. If they have had a hard time before coming in to us they need very special people to help them adjust.

Have to say most of our Second Chance family do this there is just the odd one or two who want to dominate the dog !!! That makes me very angry as they desserve so much more !!

This is wee Ruby the Cavalier, who just went to her new home a few weeks ago, she has now been spayed and as you can see has settled in very well.Her mum assures us they do all have a bed each but prefer to share bless.xxx

Just found this other photo of Ruby with her big sis xx

Not ready to get up yet mum xx

This wee lad brought his folks back for a visit today,they had been away for a few days in their camper ven, what a wee star he is, goes up and down the wee stair to get into the van with no trouble and to see him trotting around you would never think he's blind. Eleanor and Brian just adore him, as do all their family. Thank you both so very much for loving "our" wee boy, it was great to see you. xx.

Hi Ena
Here is Zara looking settled in her new home and playing football with her new brother
Thanx Lynn

Hi Lynn,

Thanks for the update on our lovely Zara, she certainly looks as though she has made herself right at home, not sure how many footballs Logan will have lsft though Lol !!! So good to see how content she looks.xx

Well folks first of all I would like to thank everyone who was in touch offering me a home. Only one of me though and my new dad has alwqays had Border Collie's so know all about our breed.I have settled in very well get to go lots of long walks I'm loving it. Love Olly xx

Hi Rachel and Brian thank you so much for the update on your guys. Obviously getting on so well together, and looking so happy. Love the pics hope you managed to save some apples though Lol xx

This is me with my mum, doesn't that sound good, just look at the big smile on my face. I thought no one would want me with all my lumps and bumps. Ena called to see how I was doing and Lyn said she loves me already. I love Logan their wee boy too, he plays football with me so that's cool. Although Lyn told Ena she won't be able to keep me supplied with tennis balls as I burst them all, poor wee Alfie had quite a few at the kennels, not anymore, sorry Alfie but I'm sure you will hwve more by now !!! Love Zara xx.

Well this is me going home, my folks have had dogs from here before, so I know I will be really well looked after.I was playing with toys and mum said oh dear we don't have any toys now Barney, so Ena said no problem opened the toy box and I chose some toys to take home.xx
