Gosh, a week since our last post!

Bow - reserved

We have been very busy this week. Several of our dogs and puppies that weren't getting much interest with us have been transferred to the Dogs Trust, where there is a waiting list of people looking to adopt. This is great news for them because they get a wider audience and are sure to find their forever home really soon.

Bow is a lurcher boy who is 2 years old and an absolute sweetheart. To find out more about this lad please visit http://forum.fourpawsanimalrescue.org.uk/index.php?topic=9340.0 Update: Bow had visitors on Sunday who adored him so he is now reserved pending a homecheck.

Here is the lovely Jade. She has been in kennels for some time now but as finally got herself a smashing foster home. Her fosterers say she is a big softy so please forget all you read about Staffies being well 'ard status dogs. Most of them aren't. They used to be known as Nanny dogs because they were so good with people and children.  Jade is showering her fosterers with those famous Staffie kisses and is desperate for a home to call her own. For more information on her please visit http://forum.fourpawsanimalrescue.org.uk/index.php?topic=9357.0

We were also asked to collect some kittens who were born in someone's shed - and they didn't even own a cat! Luckily Denise at Vale Cat Rescue was on hand to take them and the Cat's Protection volunteers will be heading down to the house soon to set traps to catch the very nervous mother cat so she can be spayed and hopefully rehomed. It wasn't an ideal situation and it's always nice to keep the family together but she was so fearful of humans that no one could get near her. At least the kittens have been rescued. In a few weeks time we may have lost the opportunity to get them because mum would have taken them off elsewhere and there would be 7 nervous cats on the loose.

Well, until next time enjoy your weekend and all of this wonderful weather.

Please remember DO NOT LEAVE YOUR DOG IN YOUR CAR. In this heat even with a window open air may not circulate and this could be fatal for your pet.
