When Will arrived at the SPA we all know that he wouldn’t have a long wait. This very cute Labrador cross pup went right into foster with Val and family and settled in well with her dogs. When pups are in foster we share their details on social media, we tell family and friends about them and this usually sparks some interest. Its very difficult for a foster mum to think about ‘their’ pup living with another family so we do allow them to select the family that their pup is adopted into. This way they are having a big input into the pups future and rightly so after weeks of loving and caring for the pup.
Before a pup is adopted, potential adopters must visit the pup in foster and then a pre-visit is done.This is to give the foster mum confidence that the pup is going to a safe and suitable environment. Visits were made, papers were signed and today puppy Will left with his forever family and I am sure that Val will get updates on how he is doing and share them with us.
Little Roxanne who was abandoned yesterday was adopted today after going to the vet to be sterilized of course so this lucky girl one had one night in the refuge. I did mention last night that small breed females are very popular!
At the SPA it was only 28 degrees so lot of doggies had lovely walks. Day like these are a godsend during the summer.
We also had great fun with two recently donated swimming pools. Moos’ new family felt so sorry for the dogs at the SPA in this heat, that they ordered two super pools for the dogs. As you can see from the photos below, they are most appreciated by the dog and emmm some of the volunteers!
A special thank you goes to our volunteer Steve who passed by with ice cream. You will see a lovely video of Lagoon enjoying a lick of mine on the facebook page! He took it ever so gently, what a lovely mannered boy he is!
Two doggies did arrive today, a poodle and a jack russel but both left later on with their owners so two adoption, two dogs reclaimed, lots of walks and fun in the pool. A good day at the SPA!
