Dexter needs a sizable garden with 6' panel fencing so he can enjoy games. Dexter would be great with older children or visiting younger providing 'taps' are kept on his exuberance. Super lad! His Story: Dexter was originally found stray. He was homed for nearly a year but due to change of circumstances has come back on to our books. Dexter has just February before he returns to kennels if not homed in the meantime. Dexter is well known and loved by our rescue. Neutered, fully vax'd and chipped.

Dexter wants to run, have fun, play ball and enjoy loads of cuddles. He however also settled down well when left preferably with a window to watch awaiting his owners return. He travels well in the car. Dexter enjoyed training classes, settled to his own skin and is now less anxious about meeting and greeting other dogs. He has learned to tone down his enthusiasm but still needs to be retained on an extender. Yes you must be prepared to have a large dog perched on your lap! Dexter has rich red coat and amber eyes. He wants to please and knows how to earn his treats! Dexter has been carefully managed by his current owner who will support his new homing to ensure the progress made goes from strength to strength. He is a brilliant "must have dog" with neighbours saying “whow you were lucky to find such an adoring dog� ... and you'll smile with pride as though butter wouldn't melt!

He may be able to live with another dog or possibly cats. He will probably, given time and training, be trusted off lead. His Story: Duke came to us via the police so his owner may have gone inside and no friend or family were available to take him on. Duke is around 2 years old. Now neutered and under going vaccinations etc. Advert: Duke is a clown in the best possible way. He was put on this earth to make you laugh but this is always followed up with care and affection. He needs a life style centered around his learning needs. Duke is a companion dog who will be great with children; may live with another dog or even a cat. He see it all and smiles.

He needs time to be gradually socialised with dogs outside to help him to become less intense on meeting. Can be left for periods. Adaptable to family circumstances and composition. His Story: Alf had only himself for his first 4 years of life! Never been to the vet and lived in a town environment and was left during the working day in the garden and a kennel. He arrived into rescue as his owner had been made homeless and was living in her van. We are homing him for another rescue in Kent. Recently vax'd, chipped and neutered. Advert: Alf is a great Jack Russell who is accomplished in many respects. No problems when left, house trained and played with visiting grandchildren aged 6 years plus. Enjoyed being bathed and groomed. Likes playing chase with balls – toys left on floor. Fine to take food and toys away from him. Not let off lead except in secure area as rarely comes back and will chase rabbits. Alf lived with a cat for 6 months with no problem. He could, with initial settling, live with a dog friendly cat again. With other dogs on lead he whines, gets over excited and humps. Friendly and very excited meeting people. Fine to travel and lived in van for a while. His owner left his food down all day and walked him once a day. Alf is 4 years old and so very settled in his own skin. A great companion, who relishes company but also tolerates his own very well. He needs an active lifestyle to deploy his energy. Alf hasn't lived with children but neither has he had any issues with them either fine with visiting grandchildren. Versatile!

They need a secure garden and exit management. We would prefer for them not to be crated; they have the tee shirt on that one! Their Story: Bella was owned by a young man from a puppy; he introduced Coco to her in Dec 10 when she was 3 years old. They have had a good relationship together. However they spent a lot of time crated together and upon moving they began to get out of a poorly fenced garden. The girlfriend now pregnant, didn't want them back the second time the dog warden knocked on the door, the owner was heart broken to see them go into rescue. We neutered them both and they are currently in emergency boarding kennels. Advert: Bella is a sweet girl who went from being an only fluent dog to accepting and raising little Coco as if her own puppy and they are now are close friends. Bella could be rehomed in with another dog but ideally we would like to find her a confident home with her true friend Coco. They are on extender leads outside and meet dogs generally well providing their pack leader controls the tempo. Housetrained but could do with basic training as they haven't had a family centred around their needs in this way. Bella is a pied white Staffie with a truly devotional temperament, now aged 4 years. She is a good weight and the loving licky Staffie who will shine given a decent life with care, good food and a routine that meets her needs. Coco is Chocolate brown brindle. She is excitable but submissive. Coco seeks affection and gives affection in bucket loads. She would love to find a home with her dear friend Bella but we could be tempted to part this pair for the sake of them moving into a quality home where each are mixing with another accomplished dog. This pair is everything you could wish for, two sweet Staffies looking for their forever home. Please visit Bella’s thread: http://rescueremedies.myfastforum.org/sutra80409.php#80409 & Coco’s thread: http://rescueremedies.myfastforum.org/about6407.html on our forum to find out more and follow their progress.

They need a family with patience to put the training and house rules in with kindness and preparedness for them to make a few mistakes as they settle. Time placed in them will pay dividends 100 fold! Their Story: Geoffrey and Tony were found stray and micro-chipped. They are around 2-3 years old. Their owners hadn't noticed they were gone and didn't seem too interested in having them back. The dog warden went all out to find rescue places for them and was delighted when we said we would keep them together. Neutered, going through vax. and already chipped. They are currently in boarding kennels near Gatwick and sharing a kennel. Advert: Super pair! These 2 brothers are joined at the hip; they have synergy and care for each other. They have only really had each other as their owners weren’t that bothered about them. They need to be introduced to a caring and exciting lifestyle. They would suit someone working from home who wants to break off and go for a stroll; newly retired or shift workers where they are left for short periods, they have each other to keep company. Both travel well in the car providing they are together. Geoffrey is the smaller brother, a darker brown/brindle and smaller white chest. He is underweight and his fur is currently scurfy. He has a feint white badger strip down his forehead. Tony is the bigger of the lads. He is has a bold white chest which goes through to his collar/mane. He has a white badger strip down his forehead. He has a lighter brindle coat than his brother. He is in good condition and a good weight. So many people get one dog and come back thinking they would like to have/help another. Helping these 2 brothers out can help everyone all at once!

She is Jack Russell first and Shih Tzu second. Proven with young children. Care over her recall; off-lead only in safe areas and after settlement/bonding afterall she is a terrier! Her Story: Iris was found stray in Wales in a dreadful state, needing emergency grooming and the shaving off of her coat. We took her in to kennels but she wasn’t well so she went into foster with small furries, cats and another dogs. She won through but her fosterer offered her skills in settling her with her many animals. Homed for 2 years as an only dog but due to a change in family circumstances she has come back to us. Advert: Iris is the sparkle in our eyes! In her 4 years she hasn't had the stability she should. She finds herself in boarding kennels for the second time, yet a sweeter dog you couldn't wish to meet. She isn't a 'non dog' but has lots of bounce and character. Her housetraining is fine with attention especially if it is raining outside! We suspect she started out in life in a flat or being left long periods hence her toilet training was fragile if left long periods or without free access to a garden. She loves toys and play. She meets dogs well and is keen on her lead but manageable. Proven with very young children. Iris is such a pretty Jack Russell cross. She needs regular glooming and would love to be pampered. She needs a good quality diet with a regular routine to build her skills and support her settling. She could easily be at the heart of a family but needs a family with heart and for her to be the centre of their universe.

She is currently high energy and focused on her ball if allowed. Unassessed in a home as yet. Definitely secure terrier-proof garden and exit management as she is keen to follow! Her Story: Harriet was passed on to us via the police so unsure of previous circumstance. Her chip registered to her breeder as a Jack Russell x Pug and born 18th Nov 2009. Harriet will be spayed this week and 1st vax'd. In boarding kennels near Gatwick, Surrey Advert: Harriet is fast ... like a jump jet! She is feminine, licky and given a ball, she knows how to determinedly place it, then tells you anxiously what your part in this game is, indeed! We are just assessing her lead walking and mixing with other dogs outside on her walks, but she meets dogs very well through the kennel door. Always delighted to see her lead. Her intelligence is bright, focused and attuned to what is on offer; food, fun, walks or love! Harriet looks just like a fawn 'Pug' but that nose is just a tad too pointy! She also has a 'wiry' body, longer legs and a focused mind; the look in her eye is 100% terrier. She is Jack Russell in instinct and attitude. You are seeing one dog and witnessing something else. She runs like the wind and would need due care leaving the house as she'd be the leader if you let her!

An only pet with no other pets visiting at this stage, for her own stability. Possibility of a regular fluent dog visitor, providing this was done carefully and her homing doesn’t rest on it. Secure garden and kept on an extender to ensure meetings with other dogs go well until proven to be able to cope as an off lead dog. Could live with children. Her Story: Merry was found stray on Oct 11 with a painful eye condition. She has had 2 operations for 'Cherry eye' which has corrected the problem and her eyes are now fine. First picture on her thread is before her eye ops. Vax'd, and spayed. Merry is now in boarding kennels near Gatwick, Surrey. Advert: Merry is a small Staffie with all the chitter chatter and licks of the Staffie. She is always happy to meet people and would enjoy mixing with children. She meets dogs well outside and walks with them 'chilled'. Inside she is a little defensive and so would prefer to have her humans to herself. She may well build trust with a dog friend over time. Poor love has had such an unsettled time of late she just needs her very own family! She is a rare black and brindle pedigree Staffie of small stature. She is kind, friendly and welcoming, so ready for love and games. You can't help think this little cherub is going to find herself such a wonderful family and home, and become that true treasure; she is destined to be and is within our rescue.

The family should be able to provide for 2 dogs financially ref insurance and general welfare. They need a secure garden. Mia will be spayed by Rescue Remedies in March. Her Story: Mia joined Chico when she was a puppy. Her mother was a South African Ridgeback and her father was crossbreed. Mia and Chico's owners are moving to a flat and cannot find a place which accepts 2 dogs (any dog) and are broken hearted to give up their dogs. Mia and Chico come to us on the 3rd Feb into boarding kennels. Advert: Mia has grown up with Chico and they have always been harmonious. They are housetrained, know "Sit, lie down, bed, toilet, dinner & naughty! Mia is settled now as a 4 year old dog and a pleasure to own. Generally good with dogs, but likes to run with dogs. She is a little self protective being a unspayed bitch; if she growls, her owner shouts NO. As soon as she knows she's not under any threat she's fine. Chico is happy with dogs generally and loves to play ball; he no longer steals other's footballs! Mia isn't happy in transit, whilst Chico loves the car. Mia is a large dog now very laid back and easy to manage at home. Chico is older now and just a lovely happy friendly boy who adores children and people in general.
