Happy Endings - August 2024
DAPHNE WAS SALLY-ANNE AND MABEL WAS RILEY
Hi there I just wanted to take a few moments to share an update with you. Just over 2 years ago, we rehomed Daphne (formally Sally-Ann) who was a Many tears dog.
She came home with us to join her new stepbrother, Frank, our Bearded Collie. Daphne wasn’t particularly nervous when we bought her home, but she was desperate for some love, which she has received in abundance. Daphne and Frank developed a fantastic bond and they have been inseparable ever since.
Rehoming Daphne was so rewarding, and it was heartwarming to see her so happy, a few months ago, we decided to do it again and expand the family further.
We adopted another Many Tears dog, our beautiful little poodle, Mabel. She was initially called Riley, but the intention was to change her name to Winnie. Unfortunately, when we met her, we realised that she didn’t look like a Winnie, so she has been Mabel ever since.
Mabel was so frightened when she came to us after spending months in a foster home. Tina, her foster mum had done a fantastic job in bringing her out of her shell, but we all knew that she had a long journey ahead. Mabel has come on leaps and bounds and is no longer the scared little girl that wouldn’t even come to you for a tickle. Now she is so happy, confident, and very very cheeky. During the day, when all three dogs are not trying to destroy my garden, she spends her time shadowing Daphne, choosing to sleep with her wherever Daphne choses to settle. My bed is a particulate favourite place for the girls to snooze. When we go for a walk, she is still very nervous of cars and noisy traffic, but she adores a long run across the fields.
Whilst Frank is now 8 (the same as Daphne), he has the energy and stamina of a 3 year old dog, so Mabel is a perfect match for him when it comes to chasing balls. Frank has the longest legs, so he is generally in the lead, with Mabel just a few paces behind him. One of the highlights of my day is when I come home to see all three dogs waiting for me at the window. They go absolutely crazy with all 3 dogs trying to give me as many excited kisses as they can.
When its calm, somehow, we all manage to squeeze onto the sofa for tickles and cuddles. I have attached a couple of pics and videos as I thought that we would like to hear about our 2nd happy ending.
Thank you for giving me and my family the opportunity to make these little ladies very happy.
Kind regards Vikki
POPPY WAS BESSIE
Hello
We adopted Bessie in March and renamed her Poppy. To start with she had a lot of toilet training issues but now has improved greatly and no longer goes in the house ( unless very excited ! )
She loves and asks for walks but is still nervous when approached by other dogs although can get along once introduced to them.
She is a lovely natured , sweet Beagle who loves her food and cuddles on the chair.
She has slotted into all daily routines and goes straight into her crate / bed at night after milk and biscuits.
She has filled the void left after the loss of another Many Tears Beagle and we couldn’t have asked for a sweeter little lady.
regards
Julian and Jenny
MISSY WAS GAIL
We rescued Missy in May, she was extremely nervous and wouldn't come to us and would run away. She is still very nervous of things, but now she comes to us for cuddles. She wouldn't let us put a lead on her for 2 weeks, she was so afraid. Now, you can't stop her she loves her walks and needs to sniff every little thing. Food and toys are her favourite things, she now has the zoomies and is now wanting to be next to us all the time. She has been an amazing addition to our family, she is being spoilt as she deserves to be. Her first holiday will be in September, where she can spend hours playing on the beach, living her best life. I'm so glad she choose us to love her, and showered with love is what she's getting for the rest of her life.
SKYE WAS BLODYN
On 26th August 2023, we welcomed Skye was 'Blodyn' into our family. She is such a joy from the unhappy little face in her original advert. When we're on a walk she has the biggest smile on her face and barks to tell me how happy she is. We're always stopped when people notice her blue eye. She's absolutely gorgeous and a great addition to our family of spaniels.
Thank you MT for letting us adopt darling Skye
HUXLEY WAS OKTOBER
We’ve had a rescue from Many Tears before and I still occasionally check the website. In August 23 we had Finn our 13 year old black lab and Dex his 2 year old great nephew. Quite an age gap. I made one of my occasional browses of Many Tears website and a new chapter began! A litter of 4 month old pups were looking for homes and 24 hours after looking, we were driving to Wales with Finn and Dex to meet Oktober, now Huxley. He was wary of humans but nosey and playful with the boys. Within days he settled into the most chilled out pup with an amazing personality. His legs are so long we thought he was part giraffe!! He and Dex are good buddies now, fighting round the lounge and chasing each other round the park. He’s a wee star and has lots of doggy pals in village
NELLIE WAS THIAD
Coming up to 12 months since we gave Nellie her forever home and you can see she has settled in very well. She has her big brother Henry the Retriever and our new addition Mildred (who thinks she is a dog!!!!). Took this picture as it made me smile and hopefully others too. More than happy for you to put this onto your website.
LOLLY
Good afternoon. A quick update on beautiful Lolly who we were very fortunate to bring home in April 2021. Lolly was four in June this year. She is still a beautiful loving dog. She adores all our grandchildren and their dogs too. She is an absolute treasure. Thank you so much. Kind regards Lynne.
