Tara Spanish Greyhound

This is the beautiful Tara – Terrier SOS saved her from a horrible fate as a hunting dog in Spain – she is in foster in Nottinghamshire and proving to be a delightful dog.

[meteor_slideshow slideshow=”tara”]

She is approx 6 years old, loves cuddles, running on the beach and being your best companion.

She is a blond Galga – that wears her heart on her face. She is clean in the house, travels well in the car and loves to have her bursts of energy and then lounge snuggled next to you on the sofa. She does need further work on her lead – she can be bossy with other dogs – but we think in the right home – she will blossom.

Preferably a home with Sighthound experience. Can you open your heart to her?

Tara is a female galga, vaccinated, chipped & neutered.  DOB: 01/06/2008

Children: age 10 + – Sorry no small furries or cats.

Little Jack young terrier

20141110_11150420141111_13062620141111_14005720141112_0756291535420_721406434620696_5238499117883124003_n10882258_745787092182630_2427447839201248839_n LittleJack2

Let us introduce you to the lovely Little Jack. He was found one morning crying on a volunteer’s doormat. He was in so much pain, had sores all over his body and was thin and hungry. The volunteer asked if we could help – his condition was going to need treatment and there really was no other help for him. So we saw his little face and thought we must help this poor thing.

Jack is young – probably only a year old – he is still very much a puppy. He has Leishmania and has had a new immunotherapy treatment – he is on daily medication, but we are hoping that after his next blood test it will not be needed. The illness has left him with scars and he still has skin problems – and brittle nails. He is on remedies for this and nutritional supplements and we are hoping they will continue to improve.

Because of this – Jack will never be able to walk miles, or do agility – but what he will do is be your best companion, cuddle on the sofa and love you! He needs a quiet home that will let him be himself and play and wiggle his bum. He could live with another dog – but a calm one.

He travels well in the car, is fully vaccinated, has a passport and neutered and although very wary of the world – he does want to have a furever home to call his own.  His foster family thinks he is a delight, interested in Little Jack?

Please welcome the newest member to our Terrier SOS adoptable dog family….please meet Viking! Viking – pronounce Vee-king in French – is a 10 year old fox terrier. He came into our care at the beginning of December – sadly due to a change of circumstances, his owners could no longer keep him.  He has been in foster in Dorset, living with a lovely female patterdale.

He is a gentleman who likes his walks and spending time in his garden. During the day he loves snoozing on the sofa and enjoys being wherever you are in the house, including the bedroom at night. He wants a quiet life and could live with another calm dog.

He is in good health for his age, although he has cataract in one eye.

He’s adapted very quickly to life in his foster family, he loves a cuddle on the sofa, walking off the lead on the beach.  He is good with other dogs he meets on walks and likes having a little play.  We think he might be the perfect older dog.

He is chipped & vaccinated.
If you are interested in adopting Viking – please fill in a Questionnaire – old dogs need love too.

Berni

20141028_101838 20141028_101600 20141028_101654 20141027_155539

Another lovely spaniard – Berni has arrived to the UK. We pulled him from another horrible killing station. He is one of Spain’s many strays and abandoned dogs. We got him ready to travel (He had to be operated on for a Hernia and treated for Erlichia) – he got the all clear and he is now fostered in London.

What his foster says: Berni is a lovely dog, He is dog friendly but can be a bit wary of bigger dogs. Needs to learn some basic urban dog skills – like walking on lead, getting used to noises, and not eating everything he finds on the ground!

We think he is a cross between a Fox terrier and a Petit Griffon Vendeen. He is definitely a scent hound and cannot live with small furries. He has a stumpy tail – so he is part of the wiggle bum brigade.

Travels well in the car, and has not seemed bothered by fireworks thankfully. We are still assessing him and will keep the site updated.

He loves people – and is ready for a home filled with love and TLC

The beautiful Miss Maya is being fostered in Hertfordshire. A few words from her foster family: “She is the most gentle and kind dog you would ever wish to meet, whose tail never stops wagging!  Maya has been on a trip to see the ducks, and then went to the pet shop. Maya was very good and even found some treats..She was a bit puzzled when she saw her reflection in the mirror but soon realised it was not her twin..or is it just a girl thing!”

She came to us from the same Killing Station as Nando and Wendy – we are always full and the volunteers asked us to help – and we did not have the space.  But they made one last plea – she had overstayed and they needed her kennel for dogs arriving on Monday…..so what could we do.  We decided to squeeze her in.  Look at those eyes – how can we not try and give this dog a chance at a loved life.

Maya is approx 5 years old, she is sweet – a long legged jack russell cross – good with people and dogs. Can she be the dog for you?

Vaccinated, neutered & chipped.

Children: age 10 +

Sorry no small furries.
