Happy Endings

Another of those happy/sad days. We said goodbye yesterday to Lucas/Mr Shaggy. As always we have taken time to make sure we choose what we think is the best home for him. When we agreed to bring him to Happy Days we thought this would be his retirement home, but lucky lad has been offered a home so doesn’t need to stay here. Have a great new life old fella, it’s strange here without you today. Job Done

Alys was recently returned to us after 6 years. She was very sad so Alex a member of our rescue committee offered to foster her. She has 2 small dogs and Alys fitted right in. Alex decided to offer her a home. Sadly at the weekend Norman was diagnosed with heart failure. Alys has been amazing cuddling up to him at every opportunity. Bless her, what a special little girl she is.

I had to make a decision about Callie. She was due to leave us today for her new home. I didn’t think it fair to keep her until all this was over, poor girl could be months. So we kept well away from each other while going through all the usual advice about looking after her. One less for Phil to look after too while I am on light duties. We will miss you Callie, you are such a little sweetie and made us laugh. Good luck baby, your new life begins today. Job Done x

Lucky little Dottie went to her new home yesterday. It was a difficult decision but we felt it was best to split Mum and Pup this time as Miss Dixie was getting a bit fed up and Dottie has to find her own way in life. She has 2 lovely sisters to play with, as you can see she got on great with them yesterday. I think we have got it right. Job Done.

Lucky, lucky Miss Dixie, what a fantastic new Mum and Dad you have landed yourself. We have a home offered for her puppy so it looks like both are about to start their new lives.

Tiny Peggy left us yesterday for her new life. She has a new brother to play with. They got on great yesterday. Going to miss you little one, you made us all laugh with your antics. Lucky you, your new life begins Good luck baby – Job Done.

Our beautiful little Taz left for her new home today. She has waited a long time for the right home and she is a very lucky girl to have found a lady that is just perfect for her. She also has a new brother. What a lucky girl she is, have a great life Taz, I am sure going to miss you lovely girl. Job Done xx

Our little Rosie went off to her new home on Saturday. We have all fallen in love with this little one. Just £20 before Xmas that we sent to a rescue in Romania saved her life. Best £20 the rescue has ever spent I think. Be happy Rosie, see you soon in Dog Club.

Our lovely Betty who we thought would live at Happy Days forever due to her past and her being so frightened, blossomed after arriving and working with Jill for a few weeks. She is such a wonderful girl Jill said it would be a shame not to find her a home. We were very lucky that one of our dog club members fell in love with her when she first arrived. Just after New Year off she went to live with Angela, a perfect match, good luck lovely girl.

Winnie and Bella have moved to their new home. As they were so bonded to each other we had to find a home that would take both. Les and Phil are perfect for them, they will have such a good life, go on lovely walks and they will be going on holiday together too.

Lucky Julie has found her new home, she has gone to live with one of our rescue committee members, Sandra. She will be coming to dog club every week so that is lovely for all of us as we will see her progress.

Alice has now left for her new home. What a lucky girl, she is going to live by the sea side, and she will have a sister and a whole family of dogs to play with. Good luck little one, you stole all our hearts.

Garfield and Jim have at last after nearly 12 months found a home together. They are a bonded pair so we felt it was not fair on them to split them. They are now very happy living near Llangollen together in a fantastic home.
