Tinker (Diamond)
I’m Homed
Just an update on Tinkerbelle (which is what Diamond is called now).. She's been with us just over a week now and has been absolutely lovely. She is really starting to come out of her shell and show her personality. Tinker has very quickly learned to not rummage through the bins and to not steal food from out plates ;-), although she will still slip sometimes. She had almost no accidents. She sleeps on the landing upstairs on top of the hot water pipes and is no bother at all. She tried to share our bed with us but soon gave up when she realised her bed is far more comfy without all those human legs everywhere. Tinker was off her lead yesterday in a lovely National Trust park and was fab, came when called, really happy with her. She is a little shy of other dogs and gets worried about new sounds, but is getting more confident by the day. We are all in love with her.

Tia
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I am so pleased that the beautiful Tia found a home so quickly. She only arrived late Saturday afternoon and by Sunday morning I was on the verge of phoning Robbie to ask if we could keep her!!!!! There was something very special about this little girl - can't explain it but thank goodness she was chosen so quickly. I am going to look after her when she has her spey - can't wait to see her again xxx

Dingo

Hi Jess&tilly, the people who reserved Dingo felt it wasn't quite the right to do with adopting him and so he has been fostered instead x

Yeuna (Sooty)
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Sooty is having the time of her life! She came back from her foster home yesterday as she kept having accidents but landed on her feet when Daire and Annie's owners walked through the gate!!!! She is being fostered at the moment so please keep your fingers crossed as it seems she is being an absolute angel - and - erm - even has a new name already! :-)))) The new photo is of her on a walk this morning x

Denny
I’m Homed
Well, in honour of Denny, I've had put on my PJ's, got my duvet and got some Bush Mills single malt! Helen and the kids went up stairs for a bath, I went out to the shop and Denny just curled up. Jack got upset and started crying about Denny being on his own at night. Afraid that Denny would think that no-one loved him. Kids you have to love them don't you.

Minnie
I’m Homed
My mum and Minnie came up to visit me in York over the weekend and we all went to stay in a lovely cottage in Old Byland. Minnie had a great time up in North Yorkshire, despite the cold wind and snow. There were loads of places to explore and she loved every minute of it. I think her favourite moment though was when a hare ran straight down the road in front of us - very exciting for her and me both! I sent Ruth a photo of Minnie and asked if she could please put it on the website. It is a picture I took today in a wooded area just off the Cleveland Way. 🙂

Awww, Lucy J, you made me cry ! It's just awful that no one cared (so many are just cast aside). But it's so fantastic that she now has someone who will look out for her now. Lindy, sounds like you have landed on your feet (or most likely on your back, on a comfy sofa !) Best wishes X

Dingo
I’m Homed
Thank you Deb for introducing us the the lovely Dingo. I met him on the walk in Sutton Park this morning and have bought him home as a foster dog. He went straight out to the toilet and has been clean in the house. His tail doesn't stop wagging when you talk to him. He met the cat and looked away when we said leave it. He seemed more interested in what we were feeding her than her. If anyone is looking for a lovely handsome black boy look no further Dingo is your man. It's been a busy day his now lying flat out snoozing.
