:crying_anim: Ned did go to his forever home yesterday, but chased the cat, has not done this here, so travelling 150 miles back to us today - so this boy is still looking :mecry:

Ned has visitors on Saturday xxxxx

We have a rottie, but expect him with us for a while do to the scaremongers :grrr: , well at least he is safe

Voted

Home check failed so still looking. Hey at least we have him here for a little while longer

:love: Fingers crossed have a home check for this big boy tomorrow He is in foster with me so to let him go will be very hard :mecry: but rewarding as he deserves a home he can call his own :bigloveglass:

Ned is a gorgeous big soft slob of a dog He is 100% great with everyone he meets. We all love Ned! he is heavy(40 kilo's ) and strong (now is the proud owner of a new halti harness which is helping to make walking Ned more possible)His fosterers grandson held him the other day on the lead and managed very well this shows there is a huge improvement ) He is lazy ( prefers four wheels to four paws anyday, he even tried to climb into an earth mover on the beach today) But he is just sooo adorable that you cannot get vexed with him. If we could wish a home for Ned a country house with lots of acreage would be ideal, but reality says that he would be quite happy with a large garden to plod around. He is losing a little weight and is taking more interest in longer walks he enjoys the company of other dogs. Please contact www.pawzforthought.org.

I am so, so happy, only sorry I could not make the goodbyes yesterday.

This is so wonderful to read, we are really struggling getting an older dog re-homed everyone wants the younger smaller nicer ones, the you wonder why the older ones get forgotten.

Hi everyone, my relative has an older dog, large size, with three legs. They have to go away for two weeks, next year, family wedding, and need a boarding kennel or dog sitter. Any suggestions ???

Hi again tried this and your website but no joy>>>>>we do need to speak re: HC in dorlington hope you still have me number

Ho there, trying to send you a PM but it is saying your inbox is full can you please pm me re: the HC in Darlington as not sure where to send the info to. Sorry to message you here but have tried evey other way. Kind regards

Hi, fan of the show, been trying for a while now to get our rescue listed on the website but failing fast, any suggestions

Thanks and your right, but sometimes need to air, have her listed everywhere but no luck as yet Hi thanks, simply not wanted due to no fault of her own, she is 10-12ish and is in sunderland. Any ideas about how she can get a home quick would be much apprechiated. Thanks again

Thanks this is food for thought..................

On a visit to look at a dog that needs a home our co-orinator met cassie:- To be honest and my opinion only - so not representing Pawz here - she is simply not wanted, not her fault. Cassie is gentle, kind and loving. We simply want her homed somewhere where she can experience true love and a owner who wants her for her. We do not have foster space at present and oldies have been so kind to list her on their site. I have also listed her on this site and dogpages. I would take her myself for foster but moving in 2-3 weeks and it would simply not be fare on her on my pack of five and cat; massive distruption ahead, new house needs some work. I Just can not understand how anyone can have a dog for so long then decide to not want her; having an oldie myself and you have more chance of taking a limb from my body than taking my oldie away from me. Anyone have an opinion about this situation - please share.............Liz

Hi all I am taking this off the site and asking it to be transferred to dog chat as I want to give people who can give a home more quickly more space. thanks again for you replies so far

Hi there thanks, we have had a greyhound before, but not sure with the smaller ones, how an older one may get one, we also have a cat

Hi thanks for your replys so far, we are in sunderland - but anxious about a puppy and feel some guilt - as we have always adopted older dogs, but worried a larger older dog may be at and a risk to our smaller ones At the moment we are just putting our feelers out as would not consider until after house move and environmet stabel - we are moving to weardale area and would be willing to travel for right dog. thanks again

What lovely dogs being new myself thought I would say hello and welcome

Hi just joined yesterday so please to see you

Hi all, not sure if this is the right place. We currently vol for Pawz, fab rescue, anyway since our vol work we find ourselves with a small pack; 2 yorkies, 1 old girl medium (already had these before vol work) then along came a few in foster but 2 we kept mini poodle and sitsue - (can never spell the breed but not to worry - we felt she had far too much bagage to be re-homed and we love her eventhough she barks and growls at any new visitor - but getting there) Before this smaller dog carry on we always had large dogs, Lab, Rottie, German sheperd, (all passed away with our broken hearts to proove it). We are moving house this month and once settled we are considering another addition to our pack of 5. The addition would be a larger dog as we miss this sooooo much. However we are very very worried about taking on an adult large dog as the little dogs may be at risk, we know all of the crate and training stuff but are frightend to be honest of risking any possible adult dogs possible placement and, of course our small one's saftey. We are putting the feelers out now but it maybe 2-5 months before we can offer a home. Can anyone advise as to whether we should take a puppy (never ever had a pup before but know the theory) or rescue (always had these). We are simply looking for a larger dog or bitch, preferabley bitch we think, that may intergrate into our established 5 of dogs, ages 12, 5, 4, 2 and 18 months (Had the latter since May last year and what a life; she is the baby and would need the most time adjusting) Sorry to waffle and thanks for reading
