A boy for Christmas. Luckily for this one Aly at the House Vets directed a lady towards us, who had found him straying and took him to them. He has served his 7 days and Bernice, has offered him a foster home with her own dogs. Hopefully more news in shortly, but he is due to be picked up this afternoon. Huge thanks to Audrey for the home visit. We may need another visit for some photos too!

Is this the lovely collie cross that came into Aly last week? He was an absolute sweetie.

Yep, that's him! Methinks this boys life has just done the most mega turnaround in fortune. I so hope it works out well for Archie, Bernice, Archie's foster-sister, terrier-mix Tilly and Bernice's daughter's young Beagle with whom they share a (very beautiful and spacious) garden

He had a good sleep first night, downstairs, but does like to try to bonk Bernice's bitch, so Auntie Aly will be asked to consider neutering as soon as. A lovely temperament. Tired. he is with Aly this afternoon for his first checkup.

He looks a bit overwhelmed in the pics - hopefully he will soon realise that his life just got a whole lot better and will start having some non-bonking fun.

Glad Archie is now safely ensconsed with Bernice Oh bless, as Philippa says he does look totally exhausted and overwhelmed in the photos. Hope he soon settles and can start to relax a bit. doG help him trying to bonk Tilly - she is a FEISTY little lady, I wouldn't want to cross her!!!

Oh he looks a lovely boy, but as already mentioned he does look confused. Way to go Archie. Love to all who rescued him.

He looks so cute. Well done for taking him in. It would be awful to think of him being homeless at Christmas

Sorry to hear it didn't work out for Archie with his finder/foster family. Thanks so much for taking him in Matt and Aly

Thank dog you got him Matt. The lady that had him had begged me to pull him out of holding kennels as she had found him and he had to go there. But.... she hadn't thought about having a 11 months old collie x lurcher. She rang me at 7.40 a.m. yesterday to say that he was pulling her all over the place on walks and she could not cope. We had pulled this little lad out because of her determination to have him, and then he was in limbo!!! Thank god Aly could take him in. Albeit temporarily. I suspeect they may have to have him for Christmas dinner, not literally, but so close to Christmas, he has nowhere to go. People are well meaning, but they rarely think things through to the end!!!
Huge thanks to Aly and Matt and family for giving this little Archie a sofa.

Archie had a fab night last night - completely quiet and no worries! He went on a wlak with our 2 this morning and was brilliant on lead and very freindly to all tthe other dogs he met! He went to work with Aly for a short time so he could be fussed over by all the staff (who dressed him in the santa hat in the pictures below) and since coming home has been playing nicely with the kids! Archie asleep yesterday evening: Archie at the practice!
