Freddie loves to get his water bowl and play with it in his bed despite being given other toys to play with. The pics were taken by Katie, one of our college work experience - thanks Katie, they are great! x

Colin
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Colin is a fantastic dog..... with regard to children the rule is always for the children to respect the dog and in return the dog will respect the children. Dogs will only growl or bite if they feel threatened. It is so very important in the first few weeks of being in a new home that the dog is always given space and time to adjust to their new surroundings and those within it. I hope someone will find it in their heart to take him soon as he is quite stressed at the kennels and unfortunately the Boswell house is full to bursting at the moment 🙁

Colin
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I'm gutted that it didn't work out for us with Colin. The reasons were to do with him and our daughter not getting on too well. I want to tell everyone that he is a really fantastic dog, and for anyone that wants to rehome him you won't be disapointed. I would suggest that older children are a better choice with Colin, but where can I start about him: He is house trained, walks fantastic on the lead, sits on asking, doesn't 'hound' you for food when you are eating. He came face to face with a staffie who wasn't very happy and did not respond at all, when a cat ran in front of him he didn't react; he does, howver respond to his name benson and his ears prick up and he looks straight at you . We left him alone in the house for 2 hours and he didn't touch a thing, not once accident at all, and no reaction to any of the household equipment. I have cried so much today, he really is a fantastic dog, just maybe not with young children. Please, please, anyone who wants a really fantastic dog, consider Colin... I promise you won't be dissapointed at all.

Mindy
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Hi Kate, We were back at the vet's this afternoon. Mindy is a lot better in herself (back on the tablets that do help her since the weekend), her motions still rather loose, but on another tablet for that, her temp. is back to normal and she's put back some of the weight she had lost, even the vet said she looked a lot better in herself. Back to see the love of her life Friday. Sylv xx

I met Lucy when she came with Rob on the stand in Mell Square on Saturday. She was so beautiful and well behaved and just loved snuggling into Rob. I hope all is well after the check up.
