Housetrained: Yes Health: Good Type of home needed: Arthur is the most gorgeous friendly boy. The moment he arrived with us his tail would not stop wagging and his joy at getting love and affection was very obvious. He is currently in a foster home here and is clean and well behaved. Arthur has been fully health tested, is neutered and has had all his vaccination. He mostly walks quite well on the lead except when he sees a squirrel or a cat and then he does pull quite strongly, so really needs a strong owner as he is a large dog. He is very friendly and good with other dogs and people on his walks. His recall will need work and we are looking for a loving, committed owner who will thoroughly enjoy the company of this lovely big lad.

Housetrained: Yes Health:Good Type of home needed:Chase is a lively, happy lad that needs a home that will enjoy continuing his training. He is good in the house and has been crate trained and lived with two children aged 4 and 6 and always been good with them. He is a very intelligent boy but sadly he was not well socialised as a pup so is still a bit barky around other dogs and he needs someone willing to work with him on this. We feel the excitement is probably just wanting to play. He was recently neutered and this will also help him. Chase is a gorgeous boy and enjoys family life and needs a committed owner that has time and love to give to him.

Housetrained: Yes Health: Good Type of home needed: Fudge is currently in one of our lovely foster homes and he is enjoying the families company. He is reactive around other dogs and we feel this will improve now that he has been neutered and with plenty of good praise for not reacting. He does have seperation anxiety and again this is something that needs to be worked on slowly. Now for all his good points...This is what his fosterers say about him:
GOOD POINTS - He is lovely around the house. Fully house trained. Loves people, we took him to a party with 16 people and he loved them all. Does not chew furniture is not disruptive at all. Not bothered about food left on units. Does not food guard, you can remove his food half way through eating no issue. Sleeps amazing, in our bedroom on a mat on the floor. He has never barked in the house. Fudge needs a home with someone at home most of the time and with experience and commitment to work through his training.

Housetrained: Yes Health:Good Type of home needed:Arthur is a big softie and would very happily sit on your lap if he could. He just loves cuddles and is a good dog in the house and is not destructive or boisterous. He is currently living with another male dog and they are not getting on and sadly the family think it would be better to seperate them and feel that Arthur would be the easier of the two to settle with a new loving family. Arthur is good on the lead but the owner does not let him off lead so that would need work. He will also need to be gradually socialised with other dogs and is obviously now looking for a home where he will be the only dog and with a family that are happy and committed to put in the work that is needed.

Fergus A beautiful gentle boy looking for a home alongside another friendly dog.
A truly beautiful boy that arrived from China
Age: 3yrs old
Gender: Male
Lab or Lab X: Labrador Retriever
Good with children: All adult home needed because he is nervous
Good with other dogs: Yes
Suitable to live with cats: Unknown, he may be ok
On the lead: Coming along very well
Recall: Will need work
Good Traveller: Yes
Neutered/Spayed: Yes
Housetrained: Yes Health: Good Type of home needed:Handsome Fergus is a gentle boy and has been placed into a foster home to help build up his confidence. He is living alongside two other girlie dogs and is good with them. He is a gentle soul and has recently made a lot of progress and is really enjoying going for a walks mooching around the garden on a fine day! He is looking for an all adult home with gentle folk that will give him time and have the love and patience to watch this truly lovely boy blossom. He loves to eat and will eat almost anything you put in his food bowl. He is a big boy but takes food very gently if offered properly and loves treats of any and all kind. He has come on a long way since he first arrived. He has shown a preference for women, but will engage with men given time if they let him adapt to them. We are looking for a home that already has a nice friendly dog as Fergus will continue to gain his confidence alongside him/her. He is a big boy and that coupled with his anxiety means we would not suggest a home with children. This beautiful boy will blossom in time with love and commitment.
Fergus was rescued from the dog meat trade in China. He has spent some time in a safe shelter in China where he has received lots of love and care before coming to us. He has lived alongside lots of other Labradors and has a lovely friendly nature towards all other dogs.

Housetrained: Yes Health:See below Type of home needed:Jambo is a gentle, sweet boy. He knows lots of commands and is mostly obedient but does get distracted when other animals are around. Jambo accompanies his owner to work but as this is in forest and wooded areas with lots of wild life, Jambo will run off and chase so owner now wants a safe environment for him. Jambo does have hip dysplasia and long walks and over exercise will trigger pain so he does need regular short walks. Jambo can be left for a couple of hours and is not destructive. This lovely boy has many good qualities to offer and needs a kind and loving new owner.

Lassie, Rin Tin Tin and Toto do not show up in rescue. We do not get the elegantly coiffed, classically beautiful, completely well trained, perfect dog. Many never had good veterinary care, kind or consistent training, or sufficient company. Some have lived outside, or left alone for many hours every day. When rehomed they are scared or depressed and anxious and will act out of character but time, patience and love will solve this. When you take on a rescue dog you need to be 100% committed to making it work, ride the storm but do not ever give up. We at rescue never give up on a dog. We know that a dog is a living being, with a spirit and a heart and feelings. Our dogs are not commodities, things, or garbage. They are part of lifes sacred creation and they deserve as much love and care and respect as Lassie, Rin Tin Tin or Toto. So please, please do not come to rescue in the hopes of getting a "bargain" or "a fully trained dog". Come to Rescue to give, to love, to save a life -- and to mend your own spirit. For Rescue will reward you in ways you never thought possible. We can promise you this -- a rescue dog will make you a better person.
