Yesterday I had a little road trip up to Brecon to bring home a dog.

A dog that I have followed for years, and watch come in and out of rescue over and over. A dog that has been adopted and fostered 8 times and has moved kennels/houses 10 times. A dog that was surrendered at 6 months and is 5 this year, and a dog with the most extensive bite history I have personally seen with the most complex resource gaurding behaviors.

I've always kept up to date with his posts and updates and felt so sad for this misunderstood dog who seems to be being approached the completely wrong way. So a few weeks back I agreed to meet up with Kelpie Welfare and bring him to Swansea, and today we did just that.

Everyone meet Finn, he has come for rehab/foster/training/whatever you want to call it, and hopefully, after some time here can finally find the right owners who are willing to approach him in the way he needs, not in the way they want.

This case is a perfect example of the fact that you can not fix "aggression" with love.

Finn is currently in the middle of the deep sleep that all dogs seem to do when they first arrive here and is throughly enjoying a very straight forward approach and knowing exactly where he stands and what is wanted from him ❤️

Finn is available for adoption with Kelpie Welfare (rescue) UK.

Reminder - if you enquire about availability and then do not return your questionnaire/arrange your trial night/pay a deposit your dates are not secured and will not be held for you.

We have limited availability with a high demand and can not hold dates without solidifying that your dog is able to stay.

Thank you 🐶🐾

Maya has settled in beautifully and is unbelievably dog social. Dougie the white pig is already using her as his pillow and she doesn't mind in the slightest.

Maya could easily live in a multi dog household and is completely non confrontational, she has met dogs on walks and been absolutely faultless, she is happy to coexist respectfully with calmer dogs, but also absolutely loves a good play when invited.

Her separation anxiety is now almost non existent. She is now able to settle alone when requested, providing she is adequately walked before hand.

(As always, this is all providing the same structure, routine and rules are given to her in her new home, all of this can just as quickly unravel if what she requires is not provided. Far too often my fosters behavior deteriorates once they leave me, and it's never the dogs fault.)

Please make sure your boarder is licensed.

In order to legally board dogs, we must be inspected each year and pay to renew our licence.

Our homes, gardens, food storage, fire safety and first aid preparation are all inspected and monitored.

We are given limits on the number of dogs we can board and have to adhere to strict conditions.

Please stop risking your dogs by sending them to unlicensed and uninsured boarders 😔

There are far too many people boarding dogs unlicensed and platforms like rover encourage this by allowing to advertise through their website without checking any information on the boarder.

Please, as owners, do right by your beloved dogs.
