Milly
I’m Homed
So, our Milly is now 13 1/2 and up till now has been quite healthy. However the last 2 to 3 weeks her stomach has been making the most awful gurgling noises all the time when lying down, she's been sick a couple of times and she has also lost a bit of weight. The vet did blood tests but they all came back ok. She is still quite perky and asks to go for her little walk each morning, barking at the squirrels and cats as normal! She has also got very picky with food. Has anyone else experienced this at all? Having a bit of a panic as she is due to stay with our son and his wife in a fortnight while we are on holiday.

Hi, Hello from the New Forest on Daisy's 10th birthday. Bet there will be cake today! Gave a cuddle (several actually) on Sunday as I needed one myself (having lost my cat Gracie last week). She is a gorgeous girl. Love too all greys and humans, paws crossed for those awaiting a forever sofa. Love Spanner, Tim, Sue and Daisy xxx

Robbie
I’m Homed
Robbie has had a slow start with the enrichment program as he was not allowed to be of the lead or do basic training. I have worked with him on doing short snuffle walks, and working on “this way” and “stop” instructions. We also worked on the “touch” game which he does well and he is learning the scavenging game. Since we had the all-clear from the vet I managed to do some walks in the local park to expose him to different breeds. With me, he is now very interested but less reactive. I have started “sit”, “down” and “stand” and he is making good progress. His mood has improved. Robbie is funny, he may decide to work or he may not. He likes treats but it is not his main motivator. Robbie is a lovely boy he will swing between excitable and calm, he clearly has his own mind.

Truf Truf
I’m Homed
I have been asked to include Truf-Truf in the enrichment program. She is always excited to see me when I arrive with boxes or I enter her kennel to do some training with her. I have been working on basic life skills, “sit” “down” and “Stand” she is getting good at. She walks well and I worked with her on “this way” and “stop”. Trufle also enjoys the “touch” game a good distraction technique. She is also developing her scavenging in the sand run, important to make sure she is learning to use her nose and brain. Trufle, is such an engaging girl, she makes me smile and has such excitable energy about her. Truf, really enjoys being engaged with, she would suite a family willing to keep her mind occupied with simple enrichment techniques.

Kevin
I’m Homed
Kevin has been with us now for 5 days. He is a gentle giant, who likes to follow me around. He has had a few accidents in the house, but he is slowly learning. He is gentle on the lead and is not bothered by other dogs. He was fantastic with my young grandchildren and likes to give kisses. He is a beautiful boy who will be a great addition to any family.

Robbie is a handsome boy. I think he will need somebody firm but kind. He responds well when getting leaded up or having his lead taken of. He walks really well, though I think he prefers short walks. Big cuddles for him tonight. Xxx
