We now have a temporary foster home for him until we can sort out something permanent or long-term for him.

Just in case, would anyone in the Somerset/Wiltshire area like to foster this boy, if need be, until we can sort him out. He is entire, although his present fosterer has two bitches in season and he has paid no attention to them, we think he is past all that! He is very docile and sad and worried and responds very well to a bit of love and cuddles. He appears to be housetrained. We haven't cat-tested him. This boy desperately needs someone to love him and reassure him, at least in the short term until we can sort out some sort of future for him. Please pm me if you can help, and I will keep your details in case we need them for this sad old boy. If only Lily wasn't such a madam, or if I had a bigger house to separate them, I would foster him myself.

Yes, please do. Any help at all with this boy is very much appreciated. Thankyou!

He's on DogLost, along with every forum I can think of. I will be contacting the Dog Warden tomorrow and arranging to have him scanned and will find out if she has made any arrangements for him. If she hasn't, we (Greyhound and Lurcher Welfare and Rescue - GLWR) can take him, although I wouldn't like to see him in kennels, as he was very unhappy when the police tried to put him in their kennels. I think I would be looking for a foster home for him until the requisite number of days have expired for abandoned dogs, if that's what he is. I am still hoping that someone will come forward for him, although it seems unlikely.

This old boy was picked up by the police as a stray in a village near Frome, Somerset over the Easter holidays. He has a collar but no tags, and the Dog Warden is unable to scan him for a microchip until Tuesday. He must be about 10 years old and is very sweet natured, but quite worried and confused about what has happened to him. He is lame in one leg. We have collected him from the police station and he is being fostered until Tuesday. If you know who he is, please pm me.
