'Brandy'
'Rolo'
'Alfie'
Alfie is a treasure
and has brought us such laughter after loosing our Tessa after 17yrs. He
runs around our garden at such a speed good job the garden is big at 200ft.
He has settled in with our two cats who now sit in the same room as him.
He so wants to be friends but they wont let him too near YET. He is our
gentle giant. Our 13yr old son took him out for a walk after having him
5 days and unfortunately another dog barked and scared him so he pulled
really hard and off down the road he ran with lead attached... but straight
to our front door .. so you see he must be happy. So walkies is always with
me and our 13yr old now. He is off to the vet to be microchipped just in
case. He is well mannered has never done anything naughtly oh other than
eating all the cats biscuits this morning but I wont tell them! we cant
fault him, he is just so loving.
Thank you again for our new member of the family
Daina
Daina was rehomed from us in November 2005, and has settled in well with their other rescue dog, a Spaniel called Molly. Apparently Daina loves laps and sofas, although being a Great Dane cross, perhaps she is a little big to be a lap dog!?
Thank you to her new family for being her back to see us and letting know how she's getting on, and also thanks for the biscuits (both doggie and human!) they are very much appriciated!

Hi All!
Sorry it's been a while, that I have contacted you, but I have been settling
in. Since I came to live with My NEW mum, dad, izzy and bonnie, I am doing
really well. I am still nervous at noises and still a little bit greedy
at meal times, but I am getting there.
I have my biccies in the morning and my main meal, with loads of goodies
in it. I have put on alot of weight, but I'm not a heffer.
We go for long walks and I have had big adventures exploring. I have a comfortable
bed and sometimes Izzy lets me share her toys and chews. I am so glad that
I have come to this lovely new home. I get lots of cuddles and mummy and
daddy are really nice.
I have had a brand new coat, collar, lead and tag bought just for me.
I am so happy!!
I am sending you some photo's of me, so that you can see how well I am doing.
Lots of love to you all and thank you for looking after me while I was there.

Hello Heidi
I just thought I'd e mail to say thanks again for Watson (aka Shaggy). He's
settled down really well - I'm amazed how quickly! Everyone we introduce
him to thinks he's lovely (which he is!) Even Jake (our Springer) has got
used to him now and doesn't moan at him anymore. The cats are still a bit
wary (it is only just over a week since they first met him) but we know
he doesn't want to hurt them and they are quite happy to sleep in the same
room as him as long as he's asleep too! We can even leave him for a short
while without him minding too much. He has scratched a few doors and broken
a cat door but nothing serious or that we haven't had before. Jake does
tell him off when he scratches the door! You were right about the shadow.
He likes to be with Richard all the time.
We've had some great walks with him. He's fine with the New Forest ponies
(we've had to train all our other dogs to ignore them.) He didn't try to
chase a herd of deer we passed either.
I still can't decide whether he's all bloodhound. I've looked on local Bloodhound
sites and some do look like him but our vet thinks he has German Shepherd
in him because he already has typical GSD problems (eg weak back legs, en;arged
spleen). I'm tempted, but probably won't, to go to a 'Bloodhound hunt' just
to see another one close up!
Anyway, thanks again and I'll send a picture later, especially if his hair
grows back anymore - we think it is a bit.

We recieved this heart warming story via email, and thought you may like to share it!
God bless that Postal service employee--this is wonderful!!
This is one of the kindest things I've ever experienced. I have no way to know who sent it, but there is a beautiful soul working in the dead letter office of the US postal service.
Our 14 year old dog, Abbey, died last month. The day after she died, my 4 year old daughter Meredith was crying and talking about how much she missed Abbey. She asked if we could write a letter to God so that when Abbey got to heaven, God would recognize her. I told her that I thought we could so she dictated these words:
Dear God,
Will you please take care of my dog? She died yesterday and is with you in heaven. I miss her very much. I am happy that you let me have her as my dog even though she got sick.
I hope you will play with her. She likes to play with balls
and to swim. I am sending a picture of her so when you see her. You will
know that she is my dog.
I really miss her.
Love, Meredith
_________________________________
We put the letter in an envelope with a picture of Abbey and Meredith and addressed it to God/Heaven. We put our return address on it. Then Meredith pasted several stamps on the front of the envelope because she said it would take lots of stamps to get the letter all the way to heaven. That afternoon she dropped it into the letter box at the post office. A few days later, she asked if God had gotten the letter yet. I told her that I thought He had.
Yesterday, there was a package wrapped in gold paper on our
front porch addressed, 'To Meredith , ' in an unfamiliar hand. Meredith
opened it. Inside was a book by Mr. Rogers called, 'When a Pet Dies.' Taped
to the inside front cover was the letter we had
written to God in its opened envelope. On the opposite page was the picture
of Abbey & Meredith and this note:
_____________________________________
Dear Meredith,
Abbey arrived safely in heaven.
Having the picture was a big help. I recognized Abbey right away.
Abbey isn't sick anymore. Her spirit is here with me just
like it stays in your heart. Abbey loved being your dog. Since we don't
need our bodies in heaven,
I don't have any pockets to keep your picture in, so I am sending it back
to
you in this little book for you to keep and have something to remember Abbey
by.
Thank you for the beautiful letter and thank your mother for helping you write it and sending it to me. What a wonderful mother you have. I picked her especially for you.
I send my blessings every day and remember that I love you very much.
By the way, I'm easy to find, I am wherever there is love.
Love,
God
