Fri 30th Oct: Choosing the right puppy isn't all about looks

 


With many adoptions taking place in foster homes I'm having trouble keeping up with who's gone and who's got meetings lined up, but I'm pretty sure that of his litter only Bowie is still waiting and the chances are good that he'll be gone by Saturday.  These puppies were admittedly exceptionally gorgeous, but as always I want to remind potental adopters that looks aren't the most important factor, especially when there's a child or children in the home.  Cider, for example, only has one eye and that might put people off, but he has the sweetest nature and loves everyone, dogs and people.  As a family dog he would be perfect. 



Ned is the other puppy that greets all visitors with joy and a wagging tail, and while he has both eyes and four legs intact, he has the eating problem that means he needs some help to get his food down at meal times and has to sit upright for a while. Otherwise he's healthy and just the happiest boy ever.


Of the "G" Litter, I have an adoption photo for Gail (left), and others have also found homes while meetings are taking place for the remaining few.  There were eight in this litter of week-old babies who came to us on the second of September and who have been in foster homes since that day. 




We had two new arrivals today, an older puppy now called Xylo, and a ten year-old pom-cross, Tufty.
