Letter from Coonagh (now Swift) & family

Hello Swift here.  Well I have finally got my Personal Assistant (Mum) to send you some recent photos.  I have been here 18 months now and am thrilled to bits with my new owners.  It seems like a long time ago that I arrived here looking like an Irish tramp.  Now I am handsome and sleek.  Mam brushes me every day.  I lie on my side with my eyes shut when she brushes me.  Mam says I am a big soft lump!!!  I have a friend Henry who I meet most days in the woods and we tear around together.  Dad says I can't half shift for a dog who had two broken legs!  'Swift' seems a strange choice of name for a dog who had both back legs broken, but for some reason it never occcured to them at the time!  It was not meant to be ironic!  Hope you like the photos.  We see that little George still has not found a home.  Mam adores him!  love and licks Swifty xxx

Letter from Milo & family

Greetings Sarah and Paul,
 
Well we've had Milo one full year now and wouldn't be without him.  My daughter and her boyfriend took him to the seaside at the weekend - thought I'd let you see what he looked like when he arrived home.  Straight in the bath, looks beautiful now though.
 
Best wishes to you all,
 
Margaret
 
 
 

Letter from Kerry (now Indy) & family

Hi Paul & Sarah.
 
We have had Indy for just over a year now,and thought it was a good time to give you an update.
 
From a very timid dog who wouldn't leave my side around the house and whilst out walking, he now is very confident and will happily run on ahead, but always checks to make sure he knows where I am! He loves to chase squirrels and goes on squirrel patrol every day during his walk around the park, this is about the only time he barks!
 
Unfortunately he had a shoulder injury in August and had to have an operation, but thankfully he is now fully recovered and getting his fitness back. The vet is very impressed with his recovery. It was hard giving him restricted walks for a few weeks though.
 
His personality is now coming to the fore and he such a character always amazing us with his antics and his loving nature, he is certainly one of the family now, and couldn't imagine life without him.
 
Our old retriever Molly sadly died earlier this year, so Indy is now top dog and seems content to be on his own. When the time is right we will very likely paying you a visit to get him a companion, but for now it's just us and Indy and we love him to bits!
 
I have attached a photo of him that we took on a day out in Dartmoor.
 
Best wishes
Kevin & Sara Moon
 
 

Letter from Millie & family

Dear Paul and Sarah,

We just wanted to give some news on Millie.  She has been an absolute star and is the sweetest dog we have ever met.  She has been quite timid and scared of cars and people on our walks but is getting braver by the second.  We just got back from a long walk and she is snoring on her blanket as we speak.  She has mastered the stairs and came up to our bedroom at 6.45 this morning to let us know that it was time to get up.  She is eating and drinking well and has put next door's dog in his place.  She is fine with him while we are out on a walk but she will let him know who owns this house if he is taking liberties :)  She has had a bath, which she did not enjoy but she is all lovely and fluffy now.

Thanks for letting us adopt her, we just love her to bits!  We will keep you posted on her progress.

all the best

Thordis, Joseph and Asa

ps.  Joseph says hello to Ernie, Merlin and of course Jack.
