Kin
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Kin is my Flo's half brother (same Dad) and they look so much alike, if I could have another I'd be round for him in shot. Apparently she was a bit shouty in the kennels but I've had no issues with her whatsoever. Even if Kin is only a tiny bit like Flo he'll make a fantastic pet and make his new family really happy 🙂

Kin
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Kin is no longer the grumpy boy he used to be, I have never met a dog so loving and so eager to please than him, no one would believe me if I said he has been playing with all 3 of my dogs, shares beds, eats next to others and all with NO grumbles what so ever, he has totally changed, I can not keep him and MUST get him a forever home asap, i can not let him down, it is my task to get him his forever sofa, he just wants to be with you all the time but can be left with no trouble at all, he does not make a sound and greets you with so much love and waggy tails when you come in,

Thanks for phoning yesterday lewisfuggie it was a really useful chat. He hasn't marked again since yesterday morning so I think -fingers crossed - it was a bit of stress. He's such a lovely boy. Gives me super cuddles, especially in the morning when we get up 🙂

Holly

Just a quick update, can't believe we've had holly for so long already! She's definitely come out of her she'll since leaving the kennels!, she is so nosy and into everything and anything that is within reach of her nose. She walks nicely on her lead, apart from when we see squirrels or ducks or anything remotely chase-able but she soon loses interest in them! She is still a bit unsettled at night, sometimes she will settle off straight to sleep sometimes she will howl and bark the place down! She does get anxious when I go upstairs, it's amazing how quick I can shower/dry hair and change clothes now lol! She loves going away at weekends to our caravan. All on all she is still a work in progress but doing well!

If you can take him out more often and of course praise him loads these help. Is he the only dog in the house or do you have others?

Hi Curly, was good to chat with you earlier, I think due to whats happened over the last rew days with his duw claw, I think he just got a little stressed and was trying to re establish himself, you are doing everything right, dont forget we are always at the end of the phone. Hope things improve over next few days again.

Kin
Over the Rainbow Bridge
After Kins viewing last night, the family couldnt all agrwee, so Kin is back up and awaiting his forever home. I will be keeping him with me for the rest of this week to continue his training, but if you would like to view him, I can be available any day or night this week. If there is anyone out there that could continue Kins foster after sunday, please let the kennels know as he is doing so well and could really do with not going back to the kennels. X

Hi all, podge has decided to start marking in the house, was hoping someone might have some clever ideas how to stop him. At the moment I've been cleaning it up well to try and get rid of any smell, and really praising him when he goes out side. Are there any sprays that could be put on furniture etc to deter him? Any advice appreciated.
