Yesterday’s two griffon arrivals did indeed leave with their owner, and we have two more adoptions to report!
Neither dog had been with us for very long, and although there is a tendency for us to celebrate wildly when one of the long-term residents is adopted, in many ways it is great when dogs are adopted soon after their arrival.
Seeley arrived towards the end of May and so has spent just over two weeks with us. He is a young dog, just an estimated seven months or so when he arrived. Wonderful that he has found a home already.
The second adoption was that of Tom Pouce (Tom Thumb, obviously). This little lad has been with us for just short of three weeks, but many people are surprised that he spent so long with us. Small of stature, as his name implies, this three year old lad is calm and affectionate. Usually dogs like this are snapped up almost immediately. Perhaps with the large number of small dogs at the SPA at present, people are overwhelmed by the choice!
In such circumstances it is always worth talking to staff and volunteers who can help steer you towards a dog with the right temperament to suit your lifestyle!
