I have had an email from one of our Boarding kennels that also do Rescue. This poor chap is being left home alone due to a marriage split. His nails are disgusting so I expect that he will have dental problems as well. Is anyone willing to bring this lad in. I am waiting to hear what area he is in. Castrated, chipped but no vaccinations. Good with other dogs and loves people. Not sure on cats.

As long as he finds somewhere safe (i.e. anywhere in SLR!!!) I'll be happy.

The boarding kennels have decided to take him in to assess him for us. He will be coming out to SLR, but it will be a couple of days.

News from the kennels, he is a poppet. Has met small and large dogs and kennel staff and is not phased or roused by anything. He went to the Vets this morning to see if those nails can be trimmed and also have a checkup and first vax. So.. he will be coming in in the next few days.

More news. They tried to cut one toenail and it poured blood so that is going to be under anaesthetic at the same time as they do a dental and possibly remove one tooth and also sort out a nasty cyst on his head that is now oozing pus! Yes folks, this is a home intake!! One lucky dog to be coming in. The kennels get a good discount so they will get that done this coming week and then he can come into us for rehoming and fostering. SLR will be picking up the Vet bill, as this kennel is just too nice for their own good. But we love them. xx

I am so pleased he is being taken good care of. It is such a shame when these dogs have come from "loving homes" and they obviously have NOT been taken care of. As well as Ben, I have Will and Ethan who both came from homes with a mouth full of rotten teeth and untreated joint and back pain. Luckily none of them had nails as bad as Marmite's. He sounds like a lovely boy and I hope that he doesn't have to spend too much longer in kennels - as nice as they are, there's no place like a home! Bouncing Ben will be visiting Mummy Chook on Wednesday - Mummy Chook will be pleased with what she sees!!

Poor boy he must be in a lot of discomfort. Some people seem to have no idea how to care for dogs or they just don't bother. So pleased he is getting sorted and coming in.

Poor old boy, I just cannot understand how people can neglect an animal right under their nose! So glad he's coming under SLR's wing. He should have a lovely Christmas

Looking forward to the next update as the oldies are so sweet. Yes, he'll probably have the best Christmas ever.

I have fallen in love with this boy even though I haven't met him!! It sounds as if everyone is going 101% to get him safe and healthy - wherever he finds his forever sofa he will be a very lucky boy to have the SLR banner behind him

Yesterday he had his nails cut under anaesthetic and hey removed four teeth. The cyst was aspirated but it may recur. I do have a foster offer in Oxfordshire, but this can only be until Christmas eve or the day before that. Carmel has offered but she has 9 at the moment and this lad is used to being in a quiet one dog home. He is good with other dogs, just wants a quiet life. If we can get the Kent homecheck done he may have a foster home there.
