 Block
Oh Dear Block, what have they done This is our Block, Block is a delightful wee Staffordshire Bull Terrier, he would need an experienced Staffy owner, as I am afraid that this boy does not like other dogs or cats, yet another of many wonderful dogs out there, that were not socialised in those most important weeks of puppy hood. Due to this reason we are looking for a committed, owner, with older children that understands his anxieties. Block was very fortunate to have been homed, and lived a happy life with his new owner until just recently. Block was a wonderful pet and his previous owner has nothing bad to say about him. SO WHY DID HE COME BACK I HEAR YOU SAY, well unfortunately Block's owner is very ill and knows that Block deserves more and was thinking of his welfare, hence why he has come back to us, a very, very sad story for both man and beast. Blocks life was complete, and once again due to no fault of his own, he is once again alone, sad, confused and frightened. Block is a wonderful Brindle boy, very muscular around 8 years old, and weighs around 16kgs. Block is a real handsome chap, which unfortunately this picture doesn't show, I will get a better one for you all to see him as he really is, yeap a STUNNER. He is really compact, very energetic, full on bounce and strong with it. He loves nothing more than playing games with you, he doesn't care what games, just having fun with you is the best thing to him, a lovely chap just waiting for you. Come get me, am a real chip of the old block! Block is obsessed with playing balls, he also likes to bite the lead when you are walking him, it's not aggression, just he has the need. Like my Hector he loves to chase things, Block, he loves to chase the mop whilst cleaning his kennel, my Hector, also a staffiex loves to chase the hover, mop, sweeping brush, anything that moves quickly and makes a noise, I think it' s good exercise, he stops when I tell him, I don't think it's an issue, it's him, his character, my other dogs don't find it a problem. Block is up to date with his vaccinations, flea and worm treated, neutered, micro chipped and will have six weeks free insurance with Pet Plan.Updated: Wed 24th Feb 2010 07:55:13 |
 Cobi
Cobi is a very loyal lovely dog, he had been rehomed recently and his new owner only had praise for this lovely gentleman. He lived with two children one in his teens and a little girl age 5yrs old. He was the perfect house guest, learnt very quickly the rules and was housetrained within minutes. He played happily with the children and loved having loads of cuddles, he was even getting on with their resident cat. So why was he brought back I hear you say, well unfortunately due to Cobi's size and strength his new owner being a rather petite lady found it very hard to walk him, also having a young child present with her whilst out walking. Cobi's sheer strength on the lead was too much for her, even thou she has previously had the same breed. Cobi, is very strong on the lead, and unfortunately he is not used to other dogs, he is fine if they are in the distance, but if close to him, he pulls to get to them. Cobi is a beautiful dog, which needs an experienced owner, who can train him to walk positively on the lead. Due to his size and strength we would recommend that he is homed with older children, even thou he was fine with younger children.Updated: Fri 25th Sep 2009 11:40:00 |
 Barney
HELLO MY NAME IS BARNEY Well is Barney is a very intelligent, cute dog. He has had some training, and he is quiet a joy on the lead, he will walk to heal with a lose lead. Barney does love to chase cars, so if and when you let him off the lead, it must be away from any roads or tracks. Barney is yet another dog that does not others of his species, or any other animals. Barney is very protective of his home, so he will alert you by barking if anyone is near the house, he is a very good guard dog. He is also protective of those he has bonded to, so care and slow introductions must be held when visitors come over. Barney would be better suited to a quite home, ideally someone on their own, so he knows to trust and rely on them. Barney also likes to chat to you, especially when you are about to feed him, but in general he is not a barker only on these occasions. Barney adores his tummy being tickled and likes being stroked around his ears and his chest rubbed. Barney is such a character, he loves his baths, and likes a good shampoo and set, then a good blow dry all over, especially his tummy. We have found that Barney prefers biscuits than meat dinner, so a complete meal is ideal for him. Now we are not sure if he had to search for food previously, as he has shown that he can be slightly possessive of his food, and it is recommended that you do not give him any type of bones, as he will protect them and warn you off if you go near. Barney, has quite thick dark hair, so he finds it hard to go for long walks when it is hot, so nice short walks in the heat of the day, or save them for longer ones when it's cooler in the evening. If he is taken out whilst it is very hot, he becomes very grumpy and plays up on the lead. Barney loves his grub, so you must ensure you put everything away, even some other things, if it can be eaten it will be. Barney does not like you touching his paws, but loves to be brushed, as long as you leave his paws and tail. THIS DARLING BOY HAS BEEN WITH US TOO LONG, HE WAS IN FAMILY AND A NICE REPORT WAS GIVEN. HE CAN BE POSSESIVE, BUT SOMEONE MUST HAVE HAD A DOG LIKE THAT BEFORE AND KNOW HOW TO DEAL WITH HIS LITTLE PROBLEM, THINK ABOUT, FULL SUPPORT BY US IN EVERY WAY.Updated: Fri 25th Sep 2009 11:45:17 |
 Bromley
MY NAME IS LITTLE BROMLEY Updated: Tue 29th Sep 2009 20:04:50 |
 Charlie
J.Russell, male approximately 2 year of age Charlie used to live with an older couple who never walked him, and unfortunately never socialised him. He is a happy little soul, very lively, but can be destructive when left alone. Charlie needs an experienced owner who has plenty of time to spend doing training and socialising this little darling, and who has not other animals or children around. Charlie doesn't like strangers and will nip them if they try to stroke him, unfortunately he is not as sweet as he looks! When he gets to know you his is much better and likes affection, he is full of fun and has loads of character, a real star around here. I am hoping with the right owner, this boy will become more settled, more confident, calmer and a great companion, if you are the right person for him and interested in adopting him, we think it would be better to meet him a few times before rehoming him, this way he will know you, and trust you, helping the socialising before the big day. For more information on this little chap, please call us at the centre where we can answer all those important little questions. Charlie is up to date with his vaccinations, flea and worm treated, neutered, micro chipped and will have six weeks free insurance with Pet Plan. www.lastchanceanimalrescue.co.uk Last Chance Animal Rescue, Registered Charity No. 1002349 if you would like to know more about me, please call us on 01732 865530 between 10 - 3, or via our web site above general@lastchanceanimalrescue.co.uk, or email Adrienne on age@blueyonder.co.uk , hoping to hear from youUpdated: Wed 24th Feb 2010 07:58:12 |
 Honey
THIS BEAUTIFUL, FUN LOVING DOG NEEDS SOMEONE TO GIVE HER A CHANCE, PLEASE CAN YOU BE THE ONE? FINDING IT HARD TO UNDERSTAND WHY NO ONE WANTS TO LOVE HER? Honey is the most beautiful looking Staffie X, she is still a pup and is only 2 years of age. She is lively and very excitable girl like most pups should be. So ideally we are looking for the right family for this girl, a family that understands she is a big pup, that is energetic, full of bounce and very playful, ideally to rehomed to older children due to the reasons above. Honey would benefit strongly with going to training classes she is good with dogs and is currently spending time with her mate our Tom, she is a very affectionate girl that just needs to find the right home for her, could you be that person? 'Give us a call if you would like to know more about her.Updated: Fri 25th Sep 2009 11:57:26 |
 Baxter
BAXTER Darling, sweet affectionate Baxter. Baxter is a seven year old staffie cross. He is a lovely, very friendly boy and ever so affectionate towards people. I personally have spent some time with this boy and taken him on a few nice walks, but I will be honest he is quite strong on the lead initially, but in time he calms down and is quiet a joy to walk. Right a little bit more about our boy, Baxter is a good traveller and enjoys trips out in the car, he is also good in the house. We feel that Baxter could be rehomed to a family with children of ten and over, purely due to his size and strength, he still loves life, likes to play and show you love, hence why older children would be better, we don't want him to knock any little ones over in his excitement now do we! From what we can see Baxter has only one problem and that is he doesn't get on with other animals, so he would need a loving home with out any other pets, also, even thou when I walked him he could see other dogs in the distance, we recommend that he is walked away from other dogs in the park etc.Updated: Wed 24th Feb 2010 07:59:27 |
 Max
MAX Max is a most handsome Border Colliex, he is approximately eight years old. Let me tell you a bit about our boy, Max can be a dominant boy so he really needs an experienced, confident owner. Max is good with other dogs and even cats, but we feel he would be better suited to a family with out children. Max is an out door kind of guy, so he would benefit in having a large secure back garden that he can have access to during most of the day, like my lot they go in and out of the dog flap with no problems, so that would be ideal for him. Unfortunately we really don't know what happened to this poor lad, but I know there is someone out there for this lovely lad. Max can be territorial, so again it would be ideal for his new owner to know how to work with this, or a home where there are not to many visitors and strangers to the house. Max could be rehomed with another dog, this might even help him get over some of his issues, living with a well balanced other trained dog, he could learn a lot from them. His new owner would need to take care if living with another dog as Max can be food possessive and also possessive over his bed. When this boy gets to know you, he is a friendly affectionate boy, who loves his walks and would make a wonderful companion, as he adores company. Max like many of the dogs at the rescue he is strong on the lead, but will calm down in time.Updated: Wed 24th Feb 2010 08:00:41 |
 Bailey
BAILEY Bailey is a lovely labx male around 18 months old, and he is most beautiful colour. Now our Bailey is a very lively young lad, he loves to run and play so needs an owner that can give him plenty of exercise and attention, so if you want a running companion, this is the boy for you. Our Bailey would also benefit from further training and socialising. This boy love company and really doesn't like being left on his own, and can be destructive, but I am sure with proper training, stimulation and exercise this might be over come. Bailey is struggling with being in the kennels, and really is not doing himself any favours, as he will bark at you when you come to see him, most people regard this as him being aggressive, it's not it is frustration and stress, take for a walk then you see the real Bailey boy. Initially when Bailey came to us he was introduced to other dogs, and even shared in kennel and yard with one, but due to the stress he is now in a kennel on his own. Bailey is house trained, he loves long walks and never gets tired out! He needs a very secure garden with no other animals. Also, Bailey must not be let off the lead where there might be any live stock around, as he will chase and attack sheep, for these reasons we feel Bailey would be better suited to a family with children around or over fourteen years old.Updated: Wed 24th Feb 2010 08:03:23 |
 Pearl
Our Poor misunderstood Jewell, Our PEARL Pearl is a border collie, tri colour female around 5 years old. Pearl is a very lively and energetic girl, she love to have space to run around and prefers to be outside most of the time, we believe she was a working dog, hence loving the outside, and rarely goes into the house. For this reason our Pearl is not house trained, so she would need to have access to the garden all the time. This can be achieved by teaching her to use a dog flap and gives her all the freedom she needs. Pearl is not a lovely of being fussed or stroked before she knows you and trusts you, as she is a very nervous girl around strangers. We think our Pearl is also very nervous around other dogs, she will avoid them as much as she can. But saying that, she could be rehomed with a quiet dog that doesn't really want a play mate and is quiet happy to see around the place. Dear Pearl needs a very experienced and understanding owner who will give her plenty of time to settle in and not expect too much from her. She loves water, and love long, long walks, she can also be let off the lead, but this is only when she knows you. Pearl is frightened of loud noises like fireworks, thunder etc, she is also frightened of car and will try to go for them if walking by the road, she also barks and growls and aeroplanes god love her. Pear would suit a grown up home with out any children, someone that can be a patient, confident, and most of all understanding to her needs and able to help her through them. A lovely country home, with plenty of space away from the stresses of every day life, now I am sure there is someone that can offer her that, only one problem if you can, can I come too?Updated: Wed 24th Feb 2010 08:04:36 |
 Luther
Luther Luther is a wonderful staffx, male around 4 years old, black and brindle. Luther is such a lovely boy, he is very affectionate with people and loves to play all day if he could, especially with his toys, he is happy to entertain himself with them, love him. He is a lively happy boy and adores his walks. Due to Luther being with us for some time, why I don't know, because I think he is adorable, well I think all staffs are to be honest, anyway going off the point, Luther would need help in being house trained, so ideally he is looking for a home where someone can show him the ropes and has the time to give this little dear soul. Unfortunately, Luther is another dog that was never socialised at that important time in his life, for this reason Luther cannot be rehomed with any other animals, or homed where neighbours have dogs or cats, as he really doesn't get on with them at all, so Luther will need to be the only special pet for you. Luther would also not be allowed of the lead in public due to not liking other animals. I know what you are thinking, not the one for you, but he has so much more to offer, this can be worked with and can be controlled, he just needs that one little chance to prove it to you, please give him that chance, a young dog that can be turned around with the right help. Luther is up to date with his vaccinations, flea and worm treated, neutered, micro chipped and will have six weeks free insurance with Pet Plan. www.lastchanceanimalrescue.co.uk Last Chance Animal Rescue, Registered Charity No. 1002349 if you would like to know more about me, please call us on 01732 865530 between 10 - 3, or via our web site above general@lastchanceanimalrescue.co.uk, or email Adrienne on age@blueyonder.co.uk , hoping to hear from youUpdated: Wed 24th Feb 2010 08:07:16 |
 Zola
ZOLA Zola is a German Shepherd Akita x female 3-4 years of age. Zola is extremely friendly and very affectionate with people. She loves her long walks and gets great fun with playing with her toys. We have found out that Zola will get on with some male dogs, but she also likes to show them her dominant nature, basically she doesn't put up with fools easily. We feel Zola would be best suited to a one to one situation, someone that wants a real day-to-day companion, she is a very loving, loyal dog when she has got to know you. Zola would need training on the lead as she is quite strong and pulls initially, she also has plenty of energy so an active owner is required for this girl. If you like jogging and have a dog by your side, this is your girl, you like long walks, hikes even climbing, well this is your girl. This beautiful girl is great in the car and in the home, she is very, very clean, and an intelligent young lady who is willing to learn. Zola has been overlooked to many times now, she deserves her chance, if you see her sad face you will understand. Remember, dogs can be so, so different when they are out of the kennel situation and in a loving home. Come on give her a go.Updated: Tue 16th Mar 2010 16:51:18 |
 Beau
Beau Most stunning female Rottie around 5 years of age. Unfortunately beautiful Beau is wary of strangers, so she would need time to get to know you, when she trusts you she is the most affectionate loving dog there is, she loves her cuddles and being made a fuss of. We are not sure what has happened to this poor girl, but believe it was not nice. Why, well Beau is wary of strangers, frightened of noises, banging, thunder, fireworks, or basically anything if it's loud enough. For these reasons we would love Beau to go to an experienced home, a family with out children, she could even benefit living with a very calm male dog, after introductions of course. Beau is good on the lead and likes to have a good run around off the lead too, due to her fear of noises etc, we suggest secure quiet areas initially. Beau needs a very patient, understanding, fair owner to help her with socialising, this beautiful girl needs your help by giving her "her confidence", trust and most of all love.Updated: Tue 16th Mar 2010 16:53:03 |
 Hattie
Hattie is an independent young lady. Hattie is a beautiful xwhippet/collie around 5 years of age. Hattie is a very happy, bouncy, lively and playful girly. She loves to run and run and run, so she would need a large secure garden, and ideally access to it all the time, as she loves spending time in the garden. Due to her size, I think it would be possible to put in a small dog flap, then you can be rest assured she can get out and about. Hattie is ok with some dogs, but can be very dominant so needs to go to an adult home only with experienced confident owners who are willing to spend time with her training. Hattie definitely does not like cats, she also doesn't like being told what to do, but by using the correct reward training this can be achieved, we all would if we were going to get a treat for doing it. She is a very friendly and affectionate girl when she gets to know you, and she will come to you when she wants to be fussed, she's not in your face type of dog, she's the more independent type, well there's nothing wrong with that?Updated: Tue 16th Mar 2010 16:56:06 |
