This is what I woke up to


Boxer decided that he needed a bigger gap in the door :mad:

Please note the wheelie bin is new, a replacement for the broken one in the yard but I'm loathed to put it out there until I get a new door for the kitchen. The bin men hate my old one and keep asking when I'll start using the new one:o:rotfl:

I know this sounds bad but I'm glad someone else has gone through this
The part highlighted describes him to a T! He cries when I go out even the lurcher tries to reassure him that everything's ok and spends time licking him and even gets into the bed beside him so he feels safe but it doesn't help and now she's starting to cry too
This is him at the moment, he's only just moved to this position because he got too warm lying right beside me with his head on my knee



I wish I had someone like your neighbours near me to have him, most people I talk to say it's not normal and that no one will have him it's so upsetting because he's a good dog in many ways and his problems would be easily sorted with the right owner but I'm not that and I want the best for him, he deserves it.

Feel so much for what you are going through SpiralingDown, and the dog must be very distressed. Was going to suggest child/dog gate but I see in later posts that you have put 2 up, and he still got through. Has he done any damage at all in the sitting room? I can't remember if you'd mentioned any. If not, and he just wants in there, is it worth letting him? But of course he still needs to be rehomed as you can't manage him and he needs lots and lots of attention

"he's a good dog in many ways and his problems would be easily sorted with the right owner but I'm not that and I want the best for him, he deserves it" this is exactly what I feel about my two

Anyway, I took the dogs for a little walk and then loaded their blankets, towels, dry food and treats into the car and let them onto passenger seat, where they travel fine. They got out as normal and we put them into their shared run ........ it was just like putting them into the kennels as normal, except I gave them new toys and an extra cuddle. The rehoming lady is going to keep me informed through FB so I know when they are rehomed and how they are getting on. I took 6 x 3Kg bags of Bakers complete small dog so they will use this for them as normal until they are rehomed and then use the remainder for rescue dogs

I had told kennel owners and rescue lady that I would cover their boarding fees and anything else until they were rehomed, but kennel guy said no way, as I'd brought their food and they will not be charging the rescue people any boarding fee for these two. I said I would send in a good donation then but he said no, you've sent in enough and it has cost you so much in kennel fees over the last year. I said that I would sort out their other things like toys, covers of sofa, throws etc and bring them in for use with rescue dogs. He made me promise that I would call in to say hello from time to time and that I must get in touch with them, not just dog related, but if I needed anything, like a lift or something moved, as they would be happy to help. They are so nice, the couple who run that kennels :A

Anyway, I still haven't lifted and washed their bowls and their toys are all over the floor, so must get that sorted, though I have got the throw off one of the chairs in the washer now and will wash the throws off the settee tomorrow, when I will also strip my bed and put fresh new bedding on as I will be able to have just duvet/cover and won't need a throw on top to stop their hair and mucky pawprints getting onto my bedding

It doesn't feel too much different yet, as I am used to them going into kennels before I go away, but I think it will sink in more as the days go on, especially when I see them advertised on the rehoming site :eek:

To other business, I hope everything gets sorted out for you AngelsMadv, and congratulations MARKZ123 on your fantastic win, you deserve something nice like that after what you have been through

I'll be back later, but want to thank you all for your kind words regarding the doggies :A

I have never seen one closed like that. The main poster seemed to be losing the plot as the thread went on and I'm concerned cause they used to post over here all the time

Its a site that you do surveys on, daily searches and joining up stuff and you get paid in points. Swap points for gift vouchers. Its not easy and it can be frustrating. Its definitely time consuming but once you get going there is money to be made.

As the chain round my neck and my new jeans will vouch for !
