Fearne
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Couldn't agree more Jeff - at the end of the day it's quite simple really, if you're not prepared to put in the time & effort required then don't take the dog. my advice - please stick with it, the first few nights home our beautiful boy Shane chewed his way through the surround & scratched the door to try to get to us - but with time & patience we got over it and had 4 years of love, fun & a brilliant companion before we lost him last year. I sometimes feel people view rehoming with rose-tinted glasses "look what a good thing I've done" without fully appreciating all that's required. But rest assured - it is so worth it.

Great big Honey munching kiss to our beautiful Princess Honey who is 6 years old today. Love your quirky ways, I now get up between 4.45 am and 5.30 am (OK not always willingly), you run and hide when I get the lead out to take you a walk - the car is a far more preferable option! You pinch shoes and slipper and take them to your bed (always in pairs) and your latest "trick" you have to take the fold up brolly (that I now carry even on sunny days) just so you can take it out of my bag when I get home from work. Happy birthday Honey bun love you loads and loads. I'll give you a kiss when you get up after your morning nap !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fearne
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I feel this should be a duplicate post on Carries page , but separation anxiety can take time , but Im happy to report my first poo and wee free day today whilst I was at work thats about 2 months , it takes time and alot of patience , a nice sign is that is happening alot now is a chair I have in one of the bedrooms Carrie has access to during the day is always "slept in" when I get home , showing that she is finding somewhere to settle during the day apart from her bed...... Surely there is SOMEONE out there , who no matter what happens , warts and all is prepared to follow to the letter the advice thats available and slowly but surely get the rewards that Im sure Fearne will bring given time and patience , when you realise most of the time its not the dog thats the problem , its the way YOU act or re-act to their behavior , regardless of their background ,that one simple tip becomes a revelation

Fudge

Fudge is a beauty and he deserves a chance. It can be hard work rehoming a dog,it doesn't happen overnight, it takes time, patience and effort - but it is worth it in the end for the amazing companion you will gain. Good luck my boy.x

Aztec was such a good boy on our walk yesterday. A squirrel was running along the lane beside us (!!!) but he just had a look, raised an ear and kept on walking - what a treasure. He's a beauty who deserves a good home.
