South Yorkshire English Springer Spaniel Rescue

SYESSR - Registered Charity Number 1068811 Last year we helped 107 dogs find a new family. We also provide support to a number of dogs on our foster scheme.
(31)

We aim to care for and re-home as many un-wanted, stray or neglected Springer Spaniels as we can as well as proving advice and support to current owners. Despite our title we willingly help other types of Spaniels plus cover a much larger geographical area and will not base decisions solely on the location of either a dog needing our assistance or a possible home for one of our current dogs. As we

ll as strays dogs come to us for reasons such as;

the "present" is too much trouble
a new baby arriving
their owners splitting up
they are too old to work
their owners working pattern changes
they have a behavioral problem
their owners move house or emigrate
they are found as a stray. or even a new puppy arrives (so the oldie has to go!)

There are many other reasons, too numerous to list but whatever the reason, we care for them and try and find them a suitable new home as soon as possible. Although this is a costly scheme we are very proud of it and it is something that not many rescues have. Dogs which are elderly or have a medical condition are often difficult to find homes for as people are worried about the financial commitment that may be needed. As part of our foster scheme these dogs will be found a permanent home but we will continue to provide financial assistance towards veterinary costs. We currently have around 30 dogs which are part of this scheme, which as you can imagine is a large drain on our funds. SYESSR believe that all Springers deserve to be given every chance to live their full life regardless of their age or disability. Only on veterinary advice and when quality of life is poor is euthanasia considered. This ethos is a costly one and means extra income has to be found to support these dogs.

We are looking for a very very special home for Jack.

Poor Jack was born both deaf and blind so for him life is quite different. He found himself in a rescue after his owners circumstances changed and from there was rehomed into a home with multiple dogs (very multiple), unfortunalty although he is good with dogs on a one to one basis the number of dogs in the house is too much for him and it is not right for him or the other dogs in the house (as a number of them are having to be kept separate). As moving Jack from one place to another is stressful for him he will be staying where he is until a quieter home can be found for him, he is currently near to Mablethorpe and any meetings would need to take place there.

If we are honest a deaf blind puppy is not something we have any experience of but we can imagine it is not going to be an easy task to take him on but it also sounds like he is a very loveable chap who will make the work rewarding. We will of course provide any support we can along with contacts for people from blind/deaf dog networks who will be able to provide advice and information too. We are also in the process of getting hime specialist vet checks to ensure we have all the necessary information about his condition.

His current carers say his sense of smell is incredible and he can follow their scent around they house and garden, if he gets losts he barks to tell them to come and find him. They say he is quick to learn and a very playful, loving puppy who likes to be outdoors but loves cuddles on the sofa too, he is housetrained and loves his snuffle and licky mats. They think the perfect home for Jack would be a quiet home with someone who is around most of the time. A home that has one or two maybe calm bi***es who could help give him confidence and help him adjust to his new life, he is still a playful pup too though so any other dog would need to be tolerant too. In order to give him the best chance we would be looking for a home without children, not becasue we think he wouldn't be good with them but because it is one less thing for him to worry about. A reasonable sized garden on one level would also make life much easier for him.

You may have experience of a dog that has lost its hearing/eyesight due to age, this will be a completely different experience. At just 10 month old Jack is a very lively boy with all the usual fun and games that come with a Spaniel puppy, he will need training in all areas of life all of which will be made more difficult by the fact that he can't see or hear you. Jack does need a new home but it needs to be the right home, he has had three changes so far (4 if you include the breeders) so the next move really needs to be his last. If after careful consideration you do feel that you could give him the home he needs please start the process by completing one of our application forms.

Today we had a lovely adventure at the seaside. We took 3 of our longer term rescue dogs to Fraisthorpe and we had a lovely day.
Buddy, Toby and Chestnut travelled really well and quietly only getting excited once they realised where we were.
They had the best time frolicking in the sea and running on the sand.
We also stopped at a café and they were impeccably behaved
If you follow us regularly you will know that Buddy has a tumour in his stomach and we are at the stage where we are just keeping him comfortable.
Let me tell you that no one has told Buddy he is poorly. He gave today his all.
Obviously the human escorts had to have a detour to Mr Moos for ice-cream

This absolutely adorable bonded pair of cockerpoos are still waiting for their forever home together. They are a pleasure to walk and are good off lead. They are used to older children, at the moment they spend most of their day mixing with dogs at the kennels and are very good with them. If you would like to read more about these please see the link in the comments

We all love our dogs, they are all so much more intelligent than we give them credit for, especially when food is involved. One of our own rescues - Charlie - poor lad has had 2 cruciate ligament repairs in 7 months, this for even a quiet springer like him has been a difficult time, he has had lick mats, snuffle mat, kongs - what does everyone else use to keep their dogs minds active - we'd love to see photos of your gorgeous ones using their mental stimulation toys

Chestnut the Sprollie (6 years old) is pleasure to walk and is very good off lead, he’s an energetic dog who loves to play. He’s a clever lad, when the treats are out, he’s at the front of the queue, and before you know he sneaks round the other end for another one. We think a quieter home with no children or visiting children, this would be more suited to him, as in his last home visiting dogs started to affect his behaviour which lead him to bite one of his owners. We have had no trouble at all whilst he’s been in kennels with other dogs and kennel staff and walkers. To see more about this handsome boy, please click on the link in the comments

These adorable girls went off to their new life together with a very loving couple, you can see how smitten they are, they will now enjoy their lives together they deserve ❤️

Our King Charlie - this big lad was found straying in the king's coronation week, that's why he's named Charlie. He's a big, very strong lad on the lead but when off lead he is a pleasure to watch him enjoying himself. When he first came to us, on his initial vet checkups he was found to have a bad ear infection which couldn't be cleared up with drops and led to him having a total ear canal ablation and Bulla osteotomy therefore he is deaf in one ear. He's good with other dogs and lives with our resident dog Buddy. As he's a stray we don't know if he lived inside or in a kennel outside. When Charlie was in pain he was aggressive so he needs an experienced home which will be able to work on getting him trust them when he needs treatment.

Chase and Hunter
This pair of stunning looking Sprockers are looking for a loving home due to the owners separation. Before they came into Rescue they had never been on a lead so we are working on helping them getting used to lead walking. The boys off lead are very good as they have been used to miles of countryside to explore, they really are a pleasure to watch. They have just both been neutered. They are both good with other dogs and children. If you would like any more information, please see our link in the comments. If you think you have the right home for them please fill in the online application form.

Ophelia and Owen are a lovely pair who were given up as two energetic dogs were proving too much for a family that was out of the house most of the day. They are just what would probably expect from a pair of one year old Cockerpoos, hairy, excitable and very energetic - LOL

As you would expect given their age they still need plenty of training in all areas but are reasonably good, their owner said they had occasional accidents in the house but they were being left for 7 hours so for such young dogs this is to be expected. Owen is the more sensitive of the pair, he is a little more hesitant of new things and people and seems a quieter boy, Ophelia is more forward and excitable (sometimes this manifests itself in her being vocal) and immediatly happy to meet new people. They have not been off lead before but the owners said their recall in the garden was pretty good so at least that is something to work from. They are used to older children and are getting on well with all our other dogs, sharing a kennel/conservatory with a number of others.

Both dogs are still a little young to be neutered but this is something that must be done when the time is right (SYESSR will pay for it). To ensure there was no unwanted puppies Owen had the chemical castration injection in November.
If you are interested in adopting this delightful pair please go to the website and complete one of our online applications

Last year Jo's dog Luna was bitten by an adder while on holiday.
Luckily she realised quickly and got her to the vet who had anti venom but it could have been very different.
It's worth reading up on what to do if you suspect an adder bite but ultimately quickly getting the dog to a vet is a must

Adders are warming up... 🐍

☀️ With the weather warming up, it’s a timely moment to remind all dog owners to be aware of adders, the UK’s only native poisonous snake. Adders hibernate over the winter and emerge during the spring, putting dogs at increased risk during the summer months when the weather is generally warmer.

Adders only tend to bite in self-defence, for instance, when they are stepped on accidentally or disturbed by an inquisitive dog. However, when they do, bites can be dangerous as they can induce lameness, vomiting, and changes to the heartbeat, blood pressure, and breathing rate.

They are typically found on dry, sandy heaths, sand dunes, rocky hillsides, moorlands, and woodland edges, although not limited to these environments.

Visually, bites typically result in dark-coloured swelling that can quickly become severe. If your dog has been bitten by an adder, please get in touch with us or your nearest vet immediately.

Charlie available for adoption, he loves the outdoors, I know all dogs do but this one really knows how to enjoy himself, to watch him zooming in and out of the bushes he is definitely having the time of his life. He’s good with other dogs and lives with Buddy (our resident dog) with no issues. Charlie was a stray so we have no idea of his history before coming into our rescue. If you would like to read more about him, please see our website for further details.

Just look at the gorgeous Bertie waiting for his vets appointment ❤️ He really does deserve a lovely new forever home.

Big lad Charlie was found as a stray on the day of the Kings Coronation, hence the name. We have no history of him and no idea what his life was like before he came to us. When he arrived he was suffering from a very bad ear infection, he was in a lot of pain and very aggressive when we tried to do anything with it. The infection was resistant to almost every antibiotic so he ended up having a Total Ear Canal Ablation and Bulla Osteotomy, which basically means removing the infected areas and stitching his ear shut so no more infection can get in. It cured his issue but has left him deaf in that ear. It also left him with a fear of being "inspected" and he is aggressive about it, this would need to be worked on in any new home as he would need to learn to trust people to do this, we would arrange for a behaviourist to help with this. Charlie is a solid large springer and very very strong on a lead , he is good with other dogs and off lead he loves to wallow in muddy puddles and run, and run, and run. He is a very energetic boy but once back at the kennels will settle with his kennel mate Buddy. We know he is a specialist boy but if you think you could be the right forever home for Charlie please visit our website (link in comments otherwise FB restricts views) and complete one of our application forms.

We'd love to see what you have been up to this bank holiday with your dogs. Hunter and Chase enjoyed a good run around. These two bonded brothers are looking for a home together.

Some of you will remember Daisy, the very scared little girl who we think had been hit over the head. Well just look at her now 🥰 She is still very scared with new people and places but with the people she knows is coming along wonderfully and has gone from a walk being a trauma to this happy girl. I will post a link to her original story in the comments.

Charlie (& some pals) enjoying a walk and a juicy apple 🍎 All our dogs past and present seem to love them and at this time of year can pick their own on every walk as there are a number of apple trees to choose from ❤️ As you can see, despite Summers size she has no worries about stealing some of Charlie's apple 😁

Summer and Nancy enjoying a little off lead exercise with the boys. If you are looking for double the fun and double the love in your lives these beautifully girls could be just what you need ❤️ For more information please take a look at our website where you will also find an application form. Please note that we cannot accept application enquiries via Facebook. https://www.syessr.co.uk/items/summer-%26-nancy

We don't often play ball with the rescue dogs as if anything is going to cause a squabble it's a ball but Chestnut was out on his own today so enjoyed his favourite game 😍 To find out more about Chestnut check out his info on our website https://www.syessr.co.uk/items/chestnut-

I think we have all enjoyed the sunny weather today and the dogs at kennels were pleased to be able to enjoy a paddle in the lake...apart from Leo... he's not ready quite yet Eddie, Jasper and Toby are some of our longer term residents and we try to make sure that they enjoy the same things as our own dogs. They may be problematic in homes but they are all really good on a walk.

Running Spaniels

Enjoying a good run around this morning 😍 Moss, Millie, Lottie, Blue & Milo

Splash

This morning it's the other half of the rabbles turn for a video, think they know where they are going 🤣 Toby (l/w), Woody (b/w), Jasper (large b/w), Eddy (small b/w)

New Boy Scooby ❤️

Short walks and swimming was the order of the day today. New boy Scooby was enjoying being cool following his visit to the groomers yesterday and loved Lake playtime with his new friends ❤️ Scooby is the mainly black boy then there are usual culprits Buddy (b/w) and Blue (l/w). The ginger Cocker just off shot is Milo, he was most definitely on lead due to his duck chasing antics earlier this week 😅

Relaxing Swim, Eddie & Jasper

For a couple of manic spaniels this is a very calm and relaxing swim in the lake today. And just in case you are wondering Eddie did come straight back and didn't chase the goslings 😁
