He may need the temporary use of a muzzle just for those off lead dogs who don’t heed Alfie's nerves. He ideally needs a child-free living environment though meets children well just hasn't had much to do with them. His Story: Alfie was living with 2 other dogs, but they fell out and so a relative took Alfie in and has kept him away from dogs believing him not to be fluent. He actually has quite good dog skills; he just had several squabbles in the pack alas he was the one to lose his home. His owners weren't happy to have Alfie near the new baby especially as it began to crawl. He was taken to the vets, but vet thought little Alfie needed the right rescue home and asked terrierrescue to help. Advert: Alfie has such beauty and is an affectionate soul. He is fine in the house and a delightful chap all round. He travels in the car well. Alfie became frightened of other dogs when he lost his home over a squabble and his owners felt it was better to keep him away. Alfie is losing his intense curiousity with other dogs and is learning to tolerate their company and was that 'perhaps a smile?' Alfie as you can see is a delightful character. We are looking for a terrier experienced owner who is happy to continue the work we have been doing to give him back his confidence so he understands dogs don't hurt him. He is looking for an adult home and would love to be your companion and true friend. "Please note this dog is currently in boarding kennels and is also available for foster until a 'forever' home is found".

She meets most dogs well outside and probably has lived with another as she was found with another. More concerned in the presence of men, but does relax once her nerves are put aside Her Story: Nellie was found tied to a railing on a busy A road with another dog. She had been through Battersea and was chipped and found to be spayed, but there was no response from the chip details. Nellie is so lovely and would suit English Bull fan very nicely! Advert: Nellie is coping with being in rescue, but really desires to be in a home. She is obviously out of kilter, but enjoying any time she has outside her kennel and proving very loving and a rescue favourite. She is settling in kennels, but is a little guardy in this strange environment. Nellie is the size of an English Bull terrier, but slightly longer in the body perhaps. Nellie is in quite good condition, walks well on the lead and travels well in the car. Her feel in English Bull and we have come to truly adore this breed from the experience we have had of them. Beautiful head on her with loving beady eyes that hit your soul and swell your heart.

She is accomplished, but being a small terrier type, may be better living with older responsible children, but willing for you to argue your case! She is currently unsettled by her ordeal in rescue so need times to find herself and circumstance to tolerate initial protest. She cries, so needs an understanding family helping her soothe away emotional pain. Her Story: Lexi was found stray and chipped. Contact number not acknowledging her, but suspect it was her ex-owner. Lexi has now been spayed and is receiving ear treatment for a neglected ear condition. Fur scurfy and currently sparse. Undergoing vax. Advert: Lexi arrived at our door as a little waif. She is 6 years old and small, so likely to be a longer liver so please don't let her age be a factor in not considering this gem. She was not in good condition when found, yet so very trusting. Her ordeal has affected her as she is emotionally unsettled currently, but not clingy. Just very perceptive to change and looking for stability. She settles once coming to terms with a situation and we are confident that given time she will adapt into a new life style geared to her needs. She may even enjoy the right dog's company as she is dog fluent. Though she will need a dog-fluent companion as she is a little on edge as she settles and achieves a sense of trust. She is housetrained and enjoys the car, but likely to create initially on a journey and if left in it! Lexi is a tender soul, so much the 'rescue dog' currently. She is a moments step away from becoming the treasured healthy and contented gem. She is ready to lighten your life and offer you pleasant, easy and social walks in life and loving friendship. She loves meeting people and dogs. She would benefit from routine and from companionship. Little Lexi currently looks "the unsettled rescue dog who hasn't had the best of treatment". She is on the road to becoming that precious 'much loved' and 'apple of her owner's eye' little girl. Please visit Lexi's thread, in Dogs needing homes in Foster on our Forum http://rescueremedies.myfastforum.org/about3653.html to find out more about her and follow their progress.

She was a homeless person's dog so will appreciate home comforts. She needs basic training giving her clear communication and understanding of her needs to equip her for her new family life. Her Story: Found Stray, her owner came forward, but couldn't afford the reclaim fee ... have since lost contact with him as a homeless person. She is now neutered, is chipped and being vax'd. Advert: Maisie is a little sad at the moment as she tries to make sense of kennels and being in rescue. She walks well on the lead, meets people and dogs well. She has a lovely vibe and is settled in her skin. Not a leapy Staffie, but the very loving dog. She is in good health. Beauty shines through her; Maisie is amazing. Kind and true and will make a wonderful family dog. She is untested within a home as yet being new into rescue and awaiting either a foster place or ideally her home. Really can't see Maisie having any real issues other then settling into your routine and expectations, by offering her guidance and warmth of touch and environment. Kindness and sincerity. "Please note this dog is currently in boarding kennels and is also available for foster until a 'forever' home is found".

It is actually easy to forget he is challenged when in his company. His family will need to have awareness and be alert making sure he isn't put at risk of injury or danger i.e. roads. He needs a family who can ensure his eyes receive 'care' as required, if they prove vulnerable. Gizmo could live with another fluent dog or dog friendly cat. Gizmo would prefer a companion home, but would tolerate part-time working. His Story: Gizmo was found stray & chipped, but the owner was no longer contactable. He presented with 'cherry eyes', but once operated on was found to have very limited vision which he makes full use of with alert hearing and he is not as 'disabled' as you would assume. Advert: Gizmo is a larger than life character in a small body with tiny eyes that seem to gaze up at you with a huge smile! He is very attuned to people and loves to meet everyone and everything. Gizmo has a passion for life; a heart the size of a ship and just adores company! Gizmo is sensitive to light coloured items and moving objects, optimising and 'reading' every bit of sensory information he has to achieve quite a clear understanding of his environment. Gizmo is happy to run around and play ball, but just as happy to sit by your feet and be stroked whilst you watch TV. He will potter from room to room and be beside you. Gizmo is special, but no need to feel sorry for him ... he is never sad. In kennels he stands alert waiting for a voice directed his way or a movement which means he might get a fuss! He isn't delicate and loves a rough and tumble, but obviously his home needs to be managed to ensure he doesn't inadvertently damage himself e.g. sharp coffee table corners. Gizmo is a concentrated dollop of goodness. "Please note this dog is currently in boarding kennels and is also available for foster until a 'forever' home is found".

With firm and kind management Bonny's confidence and skills will grow, in particular with respect to other dog encounters. Bonny is good with children, but not for small furries or cats. Her Story: Bonny lost her home when a puppy was introduced. She was taken in by a family, but they were not experienced enough to assure Bonny's skills with other dogs matured so was kept away. Bonny is novice with dogs, but not bad. Bonny needs a dog centred family. Advert: Bonny has just come into temporary foster and she is finding life stimulating, challenging and a whole lot of fun. She is learning to mix with dogs outside, enjoying car journeys, paddling in streams and being kissed by children. The latter she is well used to as her life has been about children, but now its time to discover what being a dog is all about and associating with 'one's own kind'. Bonny is probably not for cats, small furries or feathers. Bonny is a beauty; bonny indeed. Her fur colouring is 'champagne', but its not yet time to break open the bottle ... lets find your right family first. Bonny needs to embrace life and enjoy the adventure. She needs to find herself and mature by developing confidence based on training. She may never be 100% fluent with other dogs inside her home, but outside she meets dogs well. Staffies are 'people dogs' and this identification is strong; dogs exist sure! Bonny's life has been about the company of children and she offers this as her skill, joy and delight.

Advert: Callie is a Border Collie who is currently very thin and just about to have a professional groom, perhaps for the first time in her life. Rocky is ready for a groom, but isn’t so thin. He has a tricoloured broken coat and a docked tail. Both are responding with gratitude to loving kindness. They are currently 95% housetrained as they work out the house rules. Happy in one another's company and the company of dogs in general. It won’t take long to get them into tip top condition as they are a young to middle aged pair. Callie is extremely loving and currently enjoying having company and care. Rocky is a busy chap who has smiles for everyone and is very much the entertainer.

She has lived within a young family and has taken it upon herself to keep all in check. She has hard nipped, but these 3 occasions have been in terrier moments e.g. checking a running child or a stranger appearing in her garden with open boundaries. Her Story: Jess is from farm Patterdales so her working instincts are to the fore. She grew up alongside children and they her. She has had 3 incidents of hard nipping, but these have been within excitable circumstance. However the last incident has been with a local vet's daughter who is not forgiving and her family is having to rehome Jess as a consequence as she can’t be kept on a muzzle within her open garden. Advert: Jess is a great character who has lived her life to the full alongside her family and 'children'. She loves play and overseeing all chores about the house. She loves her walks over the fields and although not overly friendly with dogs she meets, she is managed and kept focused on her walk. Jess is wrapped up in her family and sees herself as their guardian. Jess is a black terrier with a greying muzzle; only 7 years old ... which is not old for a terrier. She has plenty of life in her, in fact a little too much for her current circumstances. Jess needs to be an only pet though may manage a dog friendly cat as she currently lives with 2, but transfer of packs doesn't always work without real effort. Jess is in good health and vigor. We are trying to avoid her coming into kennels so a forever home would be great, but a foster home would also enable her to find her feet within a secure garden situation and take the tension out that she is currently experiencing in her present lifestyle. Please visit Jess's thread, in Dogs needing homes Terriers Nationwide on our Forum http://rescueremedies.myfastforum.org/sutra38892.php#38892 to find out more about her and follow her progress.

You will need to 'get' terriers, but his canine pack needn't in fact be terriers. Reg still needs a forgiving family where he is helped to build up his domestic skills and training. His Story: Reg was found stray at the end of November 09. He had little understanding of household living, but living with another dog helped him greatly to settle and learn the ropes. His companion died of old age and his lack of skills became more prominent with the onus on him. His family are holding on to him until he finds another home in with at least one other as we are all convinced he isn't suited as an only dog. Advert: Reg is a super terrier. He is young, affectionate and intelligent. Soft in coat and astute in instincts. Reg has been learning to live in a family and home. His owners had many a laugh over Christmas as he came to terms with life indoors helped by his true friend Molly an older terrier whom he adored. Sadly she died and Reg has been noticeably 'at sea' since and has taken a backward step. But we have pictures of when he came to us and the pictures received 8 months on show Reg much more settled and 'in his own skin'. We are looking for a forever home for Reg in with another or other dog(s). His owners are happy to retain Reg until his new family are found. Reg is a sweetheart and has begun to know what it is to be loved over the past 9 months. He is now healthy and has his own pet passport. Reg is a marvellous Jack who once his new owners spot him and recognize they have the right setting for him ... he'll be gone in a flash. Watch this space! Please visit Reg's thread, in Dogs needing homes in Foster on our Forum http://rescueremedies.myfastforum.org/about2483.html to find out more about him and follow his progress.
