Guess what?

Well guess I should finally get around to posting the good news. After her viewing the last time I posted Candy was rehomed. Her newly retired owners have plenty of experience about dogs and have a jack russel friend so were perfect for her. We all miss her lively attitude in the house but I've spoken to her new owners and shes settled in brilliantly. Been on plenty of off lead walks and interacted with new dogs off lead which I'm happy with.

We do have a new dog, I'm really too tired to post full details though so will copy the email I sent to Kathy. She is a 10 year old Welsh Foxhound and an absolute darling! She really is the sweetest dog needing a loving retirement home. 

Rosie is not 100% housetrained but we are working on it however I do think it will take some time. Rosie is a quiet dog and very easy to live with. She is good on the lead and does not pull at all, she does get a bit tired on her walks so only needs a couple of short walks a day. Rosie is quite a loving dog, she likes to sneakily jump up and place her big paws on your chest when your trying to do something. She loves lots of cuddles and strokes but isn't in your face about it.She is very gentle and even when she jumps up she does it so gently, she just lets her presence be known. Rosie does not have an aggressive bone in her body and will let anybody go near her and take her food off her. She is brilliant with the other dogs, she just ignores them and doesn't care when they try steal her food. She is starting to come out of her shell and every so often she will prance around trying to play but I don't think she really knows what to do.

Rosie spends most of her time curled in bed, looking out of the window and watching the world go by. She would suit a quiet retirement home where she will be given all the love she deserves. Rosie has seen children on walks and has not being bothered by them but I think she'd find it a bit too much living with them. Visiting children would be fine. Rosie loves being on the furniture and likes to surf worktops, so she needs owners who will be observant of this and make sure the kitchen is blocked off from her. Owners can not be houseproud with Rosie! Rosie just needs time and training on the accident front and lots of love and cuddles. She'd be best with a securely fenced garden.

Rosie has never lived in a home so she is just getting used to home life and it could take some time to housetrain her, unfortunately I think that will make her hard to rehome but she'll be here as long as she needs to be.
