Filbert is a lovely 9 year old dog, who sadly came to us two years ago as his owner could not find accommodation for her and her dogs, together when her husband died. This is a tragedy that happens far too often with rented accommodation. So we took them in and homed them separately as they were very different and not a bonded pair.
Sadly the home that we placed Filbert in is coming to an end as the owner is moving up North and cannot take him with her. Poor boy.
He is a lovely dog – very reliant on his owner and loves people. He is quiet in the car, and settles well at night. However he is still anxious and does not like being left.
He is also not good with dogs that he does not know – having said that he walks with other dogs and once a week in a group, where afterwards they all go back to one of their homes for coffee and several dogs are there together indoors and settle down.
His owner walks him off lead, in the right environment and his recall, with her, is good.…read more

Alfie & Vinnie are two former Waggy Tails boys living their dream. On the left is Alfie, who was adopted in February 2022, and on the right is Vinnie who appears as a puppy at the top of the dog page. They are very much best buddies.
They meet up almost once a week early in the morning at Steamer Point, next to the Nature Reserve near Highcliffe Castle and head down to the beach for lots of ball fetching and throwing and splashing about in the sea, whatever the weather or the temperature. It’s so wonderful to see them so happy together, and to see how pleased they are to see each other – lots of squeaking and play boxing as they greet each other.
Trixie’s elderly owner was no longer able to look after her so she is now brightening the life of one of our fosterers who has lovingly decided to give her a forever home.
Trixie lost a leg when a puppy but is still very active despite her senior years. She loves her walks, demanding to go by repeatedly nudging her owner’s leg if he happens to be delayed in getting ready. On her walks she investigates all the doggy smells and loves to meet her doggy friends.
Trixie hates water, walks round puddles and has to be encouraged to go out if it is raining.
She has a wonderful nature demanding affection from everyone she meets.
Although she is good with dogs she will not let them in the house, she sees them off if they get near the door.…read more
