If you are interested in adopting a dog that does not say it can be homed with a cat and wish us to cat test please let us know and we will be happy to do this.

11-12-24 Heather is a very relaxed and happy girl who has come to us from a breeder and does have her PETs passport travel document. Heather has had a mammary lump removed from both sides and is recovering well. Heather is a very kind soul, and will need a gentle resident dog who she can rely on for support as she settles into her home and learns all about her new surroundings. Heather has not had the chance to live inside of a home just yet and will need her new family to be kind as she learns new skills such as how to walk on a lead and house training. Heather is very sweet and will appraoch for a gentle fuss and we are hoping with time and tlc she will come out of her shell and become the wonderful companion we are sure she could become!

21-12-24 UPDATE

Heather gives a joyful greeting every morning where she has spent the night quietly with her friends in the kitchen, uncrated. She is clean overnight and 90% clean during the day. Heather is very affectionate, although still very unsure about many things and then she lies down. She doesn’t run. She eats well and shows no food guarding. Heather walks cautiously on the lead but we’ve not been into the outside world. She is not worried by sounds. She comes to her name and is quiet if left with another dog. Heather is a delightful, gentle, small retriever who is learning to have fun.

Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.

PLEASE NOTE: We nearly always home dogs who have come from breeders where there is ALREADY A RESIDENT DOG living in the house. They have usually never lived in a house before and are only used to canine company. They usually get their confidence and learn faster with another dog to copy from. This also helps with house training and learning how to walk on a lead. They will make lovely pets but do need a lot of love, time and patience. If the ex breeding dog you are interested in can be an only dog it will say so in its write up. Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
