Description:
Meet the very gorgeous Percy, he has been under our care now for a couple of weeks and came in after extremely sad circumstances, the breeder is aware we have him and happy for us to find Percy his new forever home.

Percy is a very typical energetic, playful puppy. He is very loving and cuddly. His play can still be very bitey and full on so will need a home with children over the age of 8 years old who are dog savvy and a home with parents who understand puppies and the breed Percy is.

Percy is currently in a foster home with two other dogs, he gets along well with them but in his typical puppy behaviour does like to nibble ears, so he must go into a home with a resident dog(s) that is tolerant of young puppy behaviour. Percy needs another dog to grow up with, to learn from and to play with.

Percy is crate trained and will sleep in his crate overnight, he usually sleeps for a good solid 8 hours, he will cry to be let out in the morning so he can go and do his business. Percy will happily sleep in his crate in the day but would rather curl up next to you for his power naps given the chance.

Percy travelled well in the crate in the car when he was collected by his fosterers.

Percy absolutely loves to run around the garden, so a home with a secure garden is a must. He likes to play tug and chews his own toys. Just don’t leave slippers on the floor, because they might not be where you leave them!

Percy is being fed a raw diet which he is currently thriving on. He is fed 3 meals a day. His fosterer was given his food when they collected him, but he didn’t seem overly impressed by it and would graze eat throughout the day. Since going on to raw he can’t wait for his meal times and eats his food when it’s given to him. Because of this, we would like Percy to remain on a raw diet, we are happy to advise and support his adopters if they don’t currently feed raw.

Percy's fosterers are doing some basic training with him such as sit and lie down whilst using treats. He sits beautifully and is very clever and easy to train. They have also started teaching him recall in their garden.

Percy knows when he needs to go outside to the toilet and his fosterers give him lots of praise and encouragement. Percy has had a couple of accidents, but this was more down to them missing the signs. When he wakes in the morning they take him straight outside.

Percy has met people outside of the household and loves all attention given to him. He has not been introduced to other dogs or been on walks as yet as he’s only just had his last vaccination today. So will need to wait a week before he can go on walks.

Percy doesn’t seem bothered by noises.

Percy needs a home that are experienced with this breed and/or other spaniels. He is a young puppy and needs lots of 1 to 1 attention especially in his puppy years.

We kindly ask those applying to please think it through before putting in your application, please don’t look at his photos and see a cute puppy needing a home. Please discuss it with your whole family who will be living with Percy, think of the 13+ year commitment you will need to make to him, think of how having a puppy and then an adult dog will affect your day-to-day life, holidays, work, family. You (your family and/or dog(s)) must be able to have a homecheck and travel to meet and collect Percy in the next 7-10 days. If you cannot, please do not apply.

If you think you can offer Percy his Forever Home, please fill out the Application Form.

Description:
The very handsome Five is now looking for his adoptive home. Five came into our care just over three weeks ago after at risk of being put to sleep due to his behaviour. Please read Fives full adoption post. This boy can be incredibly loving towards his people and other dogs and in the right environment he will continue to thrive, but he does need the right home who can continue to work with him.

Five isn’t currently living with children and hasn’t been assessed with them. Because of Fives behavioural history we wouldn’t be able to place him in a home with children under the age of 16 years old.

Five is currently living with other dogs whilst in foster and is great with them. He has no problems when it comes to sharing his toys, but all the dogs are fed separately so they all have their own space and can eat without being hassled or worried. We would advise this to continue when Five goes to his adoptive home. Five is happy to meet new dogs on walks and is eager to greet them. We feel Five would benefit and need to with live with another dog in his adoptive home.

Five is currently living with a cat and is very good with her. He has shown no issues around her and just follows her around. Because of this, we would have no issues placing Five in a home with cats providing they are dog savvy and have lived with a dog before.

Five has been around livestock and horses whilst in foster with no concerns.
Food Drive: Five loves treats.

Toy Drive: Five likes’ balls, however you cannot remove them from him as he is very protective of them.

Five can try to demand attention.

Five would try to steal food if it was left around.

Five does jump up people when greeting them, but there is no malice with this.

When Five first arrived in foster, he was very possessive and showed aggression towards his fosterers when we tried to remove objects from him, since settling in and being castrated he has come on in leaps and bounds. His fosterers can now remove items from him without him trying to bite, with the right home to continue his training and keeping the boundaries in place that his fosterers have put in we know he will continue to thrive. Five has been great with the resident dogs and shown no issues with them. Five no longer growls when told no or if you remove him from the sofa for instance, when he arrived he did this a lot.

Five has shown no issues towards new people coming into the home and is social towards them.

Five is currently being left for around 2 hours, he will sleep in the lounge. He is left with water and the radio is on. Five has shown no separation anxiety whilst in foster and isn’t bothered about being left.

Five is happy to travel in the car and get in the car. He travels on the back seat.
Five can bark and growl during his play, he can be a vocal boy. He will also bark if the door is knocked on or the doorbell goes.

Five is happy to be groomed, he has been professionally groomed by one of his fosterers and was good to bath and groom. He had no issues whilst his nails were being trimmed either.

Five is fully house trained, he doesn’t tend to ask to go out as the fosterers lets the dogs out at set times.

Five knows basic commands such as sit and paw.

Five is walked on a harness and lead or slip lead. He does pull on the harness but is getting better. Five needs work on his recall.

Five has been to the vets whilst in foster care to be neutered and also because he had a skin infection from excess dribbling. This has now cleared up. Whilst he is in the vet he is muzzled as a precaution.

Overall, When five arrived with his fosterers they described him as “very angry” and he was showing signs of aggressive behaviour towards them, since being in a settled environment with regular exercise and stimulation along with being castrated, he has begun to turn into the most loving and beautiful dog. His fosterers now trust him to be in their personal space and also for him not to bite or react when he doesn’t get his own way, he now listens and responds when asked to do something or to stop doing something. When he arrived in foster was a bit of a spoilt brat whose previous owner had allowed him to do whatever he wanted because they were scared of him.
He needs a home that are going to be firm but fair with him and ensure he knows his place in the family dynamic. When he knows his place, he feels more comfortable, and his behaviours stop, and he becomes a lovely, sweet and loving boy.

Five needs an experienced home that can continue to work with him. He has a lot to offer, he’s great with dogs and cats and doesn’t show any aggressive traits towards them, it was purely people.

If you think you can offer Five his Forever Home, please fill out the Application Form.

Description:
The very gorgeous Trudy is now looking for her Forever Home.

Trudy isn’t currently living with children whilst in foster. Outside of the home Trudy has seen children out on the fosters street or when out walking and she has not shown any interest in them. On one occasion out walking she willingly accepted treats from two young girls, this situation was managed carefully with Trudy on a lead as she tends to jump up to get food. On this occasion she sat nicely. Trudy does not show any particular behaviours around children as she is mostly disinterested (more excited about being outside
and sniffing). Trudy has a very gentle nature however does have the tendency to steal items (will access surfaces for toys/clothing) and will jump up with force. She may be too bouncy for young small children but is young and has the ability to learn. Because of this, we feel Trudy would benefit from a home with older children who are dog savvy.

Trudy is currently in foster with another dog, a small female toy poodle. Trudy has not shown any aggressive behaviour to the other dog in the home. However, lacks the ability to understand the other dogs body language, for example, when the resident dog cowers or growls to refuse play Trudy persists to try to interact but bouncing towards, running at her or barking at her. However, when out on walks, particularly somewhere new Trudy gets lots of confidence from the other dog (is more willing to walk up in front). Trudy is submissive with toys; she will take to another toy if one is not available. She has never growled or tried to sn**ch toys from another dog. She does like to take toys (and other stolen items, shoes, remotes, keys, phones!) into her crate. Trudy is fed in the crate as she will try to take the other dogs’ food when she’s eating. We feel this would be the best thing to do when she goes into her adoptive home too, to allow Trudy and the resident dog(s) their own space to eat. Trudy has interacted with many well socialised dogs outside of the house while on walks. These dogs have good social ignorance and are not overly playful and she mingles with these well. However, at times does not understand the dogs when
they are not interested in her (she will persistently try to interact with them, paw at them, bounce at them and bark in their faces to try and play). When Trudy has been approached by unknown dogs on walks, Trudy has become nervous, her body stiffens, and she freezes. She has barked when they have come closer to sniff, and she sometimes tries to run away. She needs to build more confidence in dogs approaching and allow for normal dog meeting behaviour as she doesn’t approach to sniff or allow the other dog to sniff. Trudy is nervous initially of new dogs, but her confidence quickly develops, and she becomes over excited. Trudy would benefit from learning from another dog as it gives her more confidence when outside. She needs another young dog that is also willing to play with her.

Trudy isn’t currently living with cats whilst in foster, because of this, we wouldn’t be able to place her in a home with one.

Trudy has seen livestock which in foster, such as sheep, horses and goats. Trudy will look and seems intrigued by these. Trudy has also seen rabbits whilst in foster. Trudy shows interest in these animals and does demonstrate prey drive to chase. She is keen to flush out birds in bushes. She has a strong scent tracking drive, will follow scents when out walking.

Food Drive: Trudy is very motivated by food. She will jump up to take food in excitement, however her fosterers have been working on manners and sitting to take food. Sometimes her scent drive over powers her food motivation and she would prefer to sniff.

Toy Drive: Trudy shows interest in retrieving sometimes (a ball or toy) but does love to always be carrying something. This can be shoes/ leads / tv remotes anything she can get her paws on!

Trudy can be a submissive girl. She will roll onto her back when trying to put on her harness. Her fosterers have been working on desensitisation and training with this and she will put it on with a treat. She has not shown submissive behaviours to other dogs.

Trudy has demonstrated attention seeking behaviours such as stealing items, jumping up and barking. These happen on a regular basis ( few times daily). Her fosterers manage this by interacting with her when she has a toy and ignoring or diverting her attention to something else. Trudy will jump on surfaces to steal items and food. Her fosterers have tried to teach her a down to divert her from doing this but when over excited or bored she will continue to do this. They cannot leave her unattended in a room because of her tendency to jump on things.

Trudy would try to steal food if it’s left out and on surfaces she’s able to reach. Because of this, training in this area will need to continue.

Trudy can jump up people occasionally, however she is very good at sitting when asked to allow people to greet her.

Trudy has not destroyed any items. She will carry and steal items, but she hasn’t ever damaged anything. However, she will scratch at doors/kitchen cupboards if she knows there is food there.

Trudy does not show any behaviours around loud noises. She has been outside when airforce jets have flow over repetitive and did not shown any differences in her body or reactions with this.

Trudy does not display any aggressive behaviours. She has had a low playful growl when playing tug (not often). She will take items and is reluctant to give back but will offer a ‘swap’ for a treat.

Trudy has not bitten. But has occasionally ‘mouthed’ when playing (once or twice)- out of an accident and never intentionally and will stop immediately.

Trudy hasn’t shown any concerning behavioural issues whilst in foster.

Trudy was nervous when she first came into foster and would shy away from people. She is now much more social (will now try and sniff people as they walk by, looks for attention). Her fosterers have trained a hand touch with Trudy (she will touch her nose to your hand when offered).

Trudy is ok with people entering the home, she may be nervous initially (will keep her distance) but will quickly warm to them with excitement. Trudy will ignore unfamiliar people sometimes but sometimes also tries to sniff and interact with them. She is happy with strangers approaching on walks and will take food from people.

Trudy is currently left around 3-4 hours. She is left in her crate and has her lickymat and water. Trudy has done a few barks when left in her crate while her fosterers are in the house. When they leave the house completely she does not bark. This has been assessed using a home camera.

Trudy is happy to get and travel in the car. She has a car crate which she happily jumps up into. Trudy was initially anxious in the car. However, is much better in the crate and will lie down comfortably. Her fosterers find she travels better in their van where she cannot see outside of the window.

Trudy will bark when she wants attention, when she can see you but cannot get to you (i.e. if she is in the crate and can see you- this is only initially but she will settle). She will also bark at other dogs. Usually while play bowing to initiate play, but bark directly at and bounces.

Trudy doesn’t bark if the door is knocked on or if the doorbell is rung.

Trudy is not used to being brushed, she will try and mouth the comb. She tolerated a bath well when distracted with a licky mat. Her fosterers have been able to use clippers on her feet and ears (due to matting) when rewarded with food. Trudy is minimally groomed, one a week a brush on her feathers. She has only been bathed once (but her fosterers do allow her to wash herself off in the river/stream because she loves this!). They clean the mud off her tummy (her fur is thin here so gets mucky- she allows cleaning of this area with a wet towel.

At night, Trudy sleeps in her crate in the kitchen.

Trudy is fully house trained, she does not indicate that she needs to go out, currently her fosterers notice as she goes quiet and starts to sniff in a circle.

Trudy knows basic commands such as:
- Sit- will sit at feet
- Come- will recall back to feet into a sit
- Lie down - with a point down to the floor she will lay down
- Wait – will stay where she is currently to a distance of 3 metres
- With me- walk by my side - currently only doing this in controlled environments and the fosterer holds her hand to her side (ie. Garden with no distractions)
- We**ee - go to toilet
- Bed- into her crate
- Touch- touches nose to hand. The fosterer holds her hand out for this (Also works as a recall and good for meeting new people)
- Matt – lay down on a small towel (using this as a settle command when overstimulated), for this the fosterer also points at the mat still.

Trudy is being walked on a harness and lead; her fosterers did consider using a Halti due to her pulling however she was previously muzzled a lot in her previously home, so they did not want to create a negative association. Trudy pulls on a lead; her fosterers have been training “with me” to build up to using this while out walking. Trudy has fantastic recall and will come to her name along with “come”. We would advise her adopters to use a long line initially until she has built up a bond.

Trudy came in to our care with a body condition score of 7/9 weighing 17kg. Her fosterers have tried to bring this down and her BCS is now 6/9 (but yet to be re-weighed) – care with being prone to obesity especially because she was spayed early.

Overall, Trudy is a wonderful girl. She has learnt so much in the time her fosterers have had her and she shows so much enthusiasm to learn. However very quickly becomes over stimulated, over excited that leads to her silly behaviours. She does demand attention by barking and stealing items (counter surfs to find something) Outside of the home she is wonderful, she has settled in coffee shops, went camping with her fosterers - and loved it!
However, when confined within the house she gets over stimulated and looks for things to steal / jump up on. We’re not sure if this is a ‘boredom’ reaction (but she will do this even when toys/likcy mat/ kong is available / or if it is a learnt behaviour. Trudy’s previous owners were unable to walk her, so she was in the house all the time. Trudys fosterers did initially use a house line to help with this and have now introduced a ‘settle matt’ (this is just a small towel).

Trudy was initially muzzled a lot of the time in her previous home, she is a young girl who needs to learn about the world and desensitize to living in a home life set up, she can easily get over stimulated inside the home and often finds things to do when this happens. Because of this she is put into her crate to calm down and relax. Trudy is a girl that going to need time and effort put into her, so please don’t apply if you don’t have the time to put into this girl. She is an active girl and would definitely benefit from 1 to 1 training classes and an active home. Trudy would benefit from another dog in the home, ideally the same breed as her or similar size, not smaller, as she can be very full on and wants to run around playing. The resident dog needs to be able to cope with a young energetic working cocker spaniel.

If you think you can offer Trudy her Forever Home, please fill out the Application Form.

Description:
The very gorgeous Cooper is now looking for his forever home! Coopers adopters must be available this weekend (22nd or 23rd) to do a meet and greet and take him home due to the fosterers upcoming commitments. Unfortunately those previously selected to adopt aren't able to meet Cooper this weekend. So he is back looking for his adoptive home.

Cooper isn’t currently living in a foster home with children. However, due to his calm nature and temperament, the fosterer believes that he would be happy to live in a home with children. We feel children over the age of 10 years old that are dog savvy would be a good fit for Cooper to grow up with.

Cooper is currently living in a foster home with another male dog and is good with the other dogs and happy to share his toys. Cooper being a puppy can get excited around other dogs so will need to be with a dog that is tolerant of puppy behaviour and happy to play with him. Cooper is currently fed separately in his crate. Cooper is happy to meet new dog son walks and can be giddy. Cooper would benefit from training classes to learn how to socialise properly around new dogs. Cooper would equally be happy as an only dog, he can struggle to settle sometimes with the resident dog as he always wants to play, so encouraging downtime/crate time is essential for Cooper.

Cooper is currently living with cats; he is good with them but has barked at them. He’s made no attempt to chase them though. Because of this, we feel Cooper could live with a cat(s), but they have to be dog savvy and have lived with a dog before.

Cooper has seen cows whilst in foster care, he seems interested in them but did not bark or try to chase them.

Cooper will try to chase birds, so training in this area will be needed.

Food Drive: Cooper is motivated by food and will work for treats as a reward.

Toy Drive: Cooper likes a squeaky toy and playing tug with the resident dog.

Cooper can excitement wee from time to time, but as he gets older we expect this to stop.

Cooper can demand attention with him being a puppy, but he will settle down if he’s tired.

Cooper hasn’t shown any excessive behaviour, he can initially bark when left but this is short lived, and he stops.

Cooper does try to jump up people, so will need teaching all 4 on the floor gets him attention.

Cooper has shown no concerning behavioural issues whilst in Foster. He can mouth in play, but this is typical puppy behaviour, he’s not at all aggressive.

Cooper is welcoming and excited to meet new people that come into the home. He is sociable with new people.

Cooper is currently being left around 4 hours. He is left in a crate that is covered and has access to water. He is left with the tv or radio on and is given a treat as his fosterer leaves. He does initially bark but then stops.

Cooper doesn’t have separation anxiety, but he will cry if he thinks you are doing something in the house that he is missing out on. However, he is easily reassured.

Cooper is happy to get in the car and travel in one. He travels in a crate in the boot.

Cooper can bark when he is excited during play, but aside from this, he doesn’t really bark.

Cooper is happy to be groomed, the best time to groom him is after a walk, as he can get very excited whilst being groomed.
Cooper at night sleeps in his crate in the fosterer’s bedroom with a blanket over the top.

Cooper is mostly house trained, he has had a few accidents, but this is due to him not barking when he wants to go out, so has been accidently missed as he will just stand by the back door.

Cooper is a clever boy but needs someone with time to put in the basic training with him and teaching him basic commands. He knows sit and will come to his name, but that’s about it.

Cooper walks on a collar and lead but does pull, so he needs work in this area, as he is still young and could go to puppy classes, this is something we would recommend. Cooper has been off lead in a secure hired field and does have good recall. We would advise his adopters to use a long lead until they’ve created a bond with Cooper before letting him off or using a hired out secure field to practice recall.

Cooper is happy to be vet checked and happy to be examined, he’s just young puppy who thinks everyone and everything is his friend.
Overall, Cooper is a typical puppy in every sense. He is a lovely natured boy and would make a great addition to any home. Cooper would happily live with a younger dog, however, would be equally happy as an only dog. If another resident dog is in the home this dog must be tolerant as Cooper is a very excited puppy. He would equally be happy as an only dog however would benefit from socialisation classes and regular interaction with other dogs.

Cooper likes human company and would like someone who is at home most of the time - he will happily sleep in his crate when home working so this is an option. He just likes to know that there is someone there... Cooper has no specialist needs, however, would benefit from a home where he has a good balance of time at home and time out and about exploring. The perfect fit would be someone that works from home who is active in their spare time, has time to attend training classes with him and can give Cooper the balance of adventure and chilled time at home.

If you think you can offer Cooper his Forever Home, please fill out the Application Form.

Description:
The very handsome Milo is now looking for his Forever Home.

Milo isn’t currently in a foster home with children, however before coming into our care he lived with children over the age of 11 years old. Outside of the home Milo is great with children he has interacted with the fosterers friends’ children who are 18 months old and up and he is great with them, he is happy to play ball with the children and is gentle with them and towards them. Because of this, we would have no issues placing Milo in a home with children over the age of 8 years old.

Milo is currently living with two older dogs, he gets on excellently with the resident dogs, he has no issues around toys, food or treats. We do feel that Milo would benefit from a resident dog with similar age and that is confident and active. Milo is a young boy that hasn’t had that much exposure so gains confidence from other dogs, on walks he has met young dogs, and they’ve ran around playing with each other.

Milo is currently living in a foster home with cats, he has shown no issues towards them. Because of this, we would have no issues placing Milo in a home with cats that have lived with a dog before and are dog savvy.

Food Drive: Milo doesn’t really have a food drive.

Toy Drive: Milo is ball obsessed and loves to play with his ball. Because of this we think he would thrive in a home that did flyball or some kind of sport where he could use his brain.

Milo can demand attention a little bit but isn’t pushy.

Milo can be a bit anxious when new people come into the home and does sometimes bark, but he soon realises they’re friends and comes around quickly.

Milo doesn’t try to jump up people.

Milo has shown no concerning behavioural issues since he came into our care.

Milo has been left for around 3 hours, he has free roam of the home and has been checked on by a neighbour. Milo is left with a Kong/Licky mat, and toys and the TV is left on. Milo has shown no signs of separation anxiety when he’s been left.

Milo is happy to travel in the car and travels well on the back seats.

Milo is happy to be groomed and doesn’t mind you brushing him.

Milo is fully house trained; he has access to the garden 24/7 as the fosterer has a dog flap. We do believe he would tell you when he needed to go outside though.

Milo knows basic commands such as sit, stay, wait, ball. He is rewarded with his ball. Milo walks on a harness and lead, he can pull on a long line but walks better on a shorter lead. Milos fosterer has also used a long line in public places. Milo has excellent recall and comes back when called, we would advise his adopters to use a secure field initially whilst he is bonding with them.

Overall, Milo is a young working cocker spaniel, he is clever, eager to learn and eager to please. We believe he needs a home with another dog in similar age, maybe slightly older to build his confidence, one that will play with him and guide him. As Milo is ball driven we think he would be great at flyball or another activity where he can use his brain to his full potential. We don’t know if he would make a “working dog”. But for mantrailling or scent work and/or an active outdoor home where he can run around exploring, we think this would be a great setup for him.

If you think you can offer Milo his Forever Home, please fill out his Application Form.

🧡 Duchess Update🧡 Little Duchess went to the vets this morning, it was her first time on a walk and she was super happy plodding along with her tail waggling. How could we not have given her a chance? Downside, we are all on pins waiting to hear from them after discussing todays plan of action with the vet. Todays plan is as follows: 1. Blood work, full Biochemistry & Haematology - This is because we need to check Duchesses kidney and liver function for the heart medication she’ll likely need to be put on. The vets at our request are also going to check her white blood cell count to see whats happening on that front. 2. Heart Scan - after her vet has spoken to another vet who will be carrying out the heart scan with him, they have advised they’ll be predominantly looking at the left side as cavaliers are prone to mitral valve disease on this side. 3. X-rays - if her heart is strong enough they’ll sedate her and carry out chest X-rays if they can’t get a clear picture when they do the ultrasound/heart scan as sometimes they can check the chest this way. 4. Teeth - If her heart is strong enough for the sedation they’ll also look to remove the wobbly teeth under a local anaesthetic rather than a full general given her poor body condition. 5. Cancerous Mass - We need to know what we’re dealing with, given her heart we need specific medication that will be safe to give alongside her heart medication. Therefore we’ve approved a fine needle aspiration to be done and sent off so the vets can prescribe the right medication to keep our girl comfortable. We just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has donated so far. Your donations have been able to ensure we can give this girl the best chance possible. The total raised so far is: PayPal: £1328.00 Bank: £280.00 SumUp: £303.00 Total: £1911.00 If you want to help with any donations towards Duchesses vet care or anything else she may need, you can do so below.

Happy Christmas from all the SCSR team .

⭐ ADOPTED ⭐ SCSR298 Cliff Breed: English Springer Spaniel (Possibly crossed with Cocker) Type: Working Colour: Liver and White D.O.B: 10/04/2018 Age: 3 Years Old Sex: Male Microchipped: Yes Vet Checked: Yes Vaccinated: Yes Neutered: Yes Wormed: Yes Flead: Yes Country of Origin: UK Location: West Yorkshire Good with: Children: 16+ Years Old Dogs: Yes Cats: Untested Other Pets: Untested Behavioural Issues: Resource Guards - Happy to swap! Medical Issues: None Known Description: Meet the very handsome Cliff, he is now looking for his forever home. Cliff came to us as his owners could no longer manage his behaviour as they had a young child in the home and did not feel it was safe for Cliff and the baby to be near each other. Cliff hasn’t been around children whilst being in foster, and due to his previous resource guarding history, we could not place him in a home with children under the age of 16 years old. Cliff is currently in foster with other dogs, he is okay with other dogs but can get a bit over stimulated and as a result tries to hump them which can then cause some tension between them. Cliff isn’t overly fond of sharing his toys with other dogs and will growl to let them know. Cliff doesn’t like to share his food bowl around other dogs so would need to be fed separately. He is continuing to improve with his resource guarding and will happily play swaps. Outside of the home Cliff is good with other dogs, he just needs to be introduced to them slowly and then he will just want to play with them. He is not a massive fan of dogs bounding over to him and getting in his face. Cliff cannot be homed with cats as he tries to chase them when on walks. Cliff has been around horses whilst in foster and is calm around them. However, chickens and rabbits he thinks are fair game! Food Drive: Cliff has a high food drive; he will do anything for treat rewards. Toy Drive: Cliff will play and has learnt to share his toys. You need to approach in a calm

Teddy

⭐FOSTER HOME REQUIRED OR FOSTER WITH THE VIEW TO ADOPT⭐ SCSR198 Teddy Breed: Cockerpoo Type: N/A Colour: Golden D.O.B: 12/01/2018 Age: 3 Years Old Sex: Male Microchipped: Yes Vet Checked: Yes Vaccinated: Yes Neutered: Yes Wormed: Yes Flead: Yes Country of Origin: UK Location: Kent Good with: Children: 18+ Years Old Dogs: Yes Cats: Untested Other Pets: Untested Behavioural Issues: Resource Guarder & Bite History Medical Issues: None Known Description: The gorgeous Teddy has now been in kennels for 6 weeks and is looking for a Foster Home or a Foster with the View to Adopt. Teddy came into us due to a relationship breakdown which meant he was being left long hours alone. Teddy does have a history of resource guarding and a bite history however since being in kennels he hasn’t bitten or tried too and only growled initially whilst settling in. Teddy hasn’t been around children and due to his history cannot be placed in a home with children or visiting children unless he was separated from them. Teddy has been around other dogs whilst in kennels and he’s non-reactive to them, he doesn’t really pay them much attention at all, he would rather go about doing his own thing. Teddy is happy to share his toys when out playing, he doesn’t attempt to guard them. Teddy is happy for you to remove his food bowl with no issues. There are sheep in the fields surrounding the kennels, but he has no access to them. Doesn’t seem to react to them on the other side of the fence. Food Drive: Teddy isn’t very motivated by food; he eats and takes treats but isn’t driven by it. Toy Drive: Teddy doesn’t really play with toys in the field, he is more interested with running about in the field and sniffing. Teddy doesn’t demand attention per sey, but he will jump up you if you crouch down, this isn’t malicious he just gets excited and likes to bear hug. Teddy hasn’t tried to bite anyone whilst he has been in kennels, he initially growled at people ent

💙 Our Romanian Boy Duggie 💙 So just over 4 weeks ago we said yes to taking the very scared but beautiful Duggie. If you remember he came from a home who had him brought over from Romania in November 2020. He was petrified and had never been out of the kitchen and garden. He came into foster with a member of the team and although there have been a few steps forwards and even more back his fosterer has encouraged him to flourish at every turn. He's been allowed to follow the other dogs ques and learn what being a dog is really about. Duggie is a lovely sweet boy who adores his foster mum, he looks to her for reassurance and trusts her. He is a complex boy who has to take a couple of days to process new things and realize that what actually is happening isn't that bad at all! For example, putting a collar on him, he had a meltdown for two whole days and gave his foster mum evils the entire time and avoided contact. But after them couple of days, a flick switched and he realized that actually its not going to hurt him! He spent a few days hiding under the table, he still retreats there when he is a bit unsure, but he is coming out more and more of his shell. On Thursday his foster put his harness on him which she had been leaving around so he could get used it it, as well as trying to put it on him and using squirty cheese (his favorite things!!) to tempt him. It didn't really help, the first harness he decided to chew up! So the foster managed to put his harness on him on Thursday and left it on him so he could get used to it. He was not happy, and his foster got death stares! Friday arrived and off to the vets he went! Yesterday he had to go to the vets for his vaccines to be redone, as he arrived and was so scared we couldn't get him to the vets for his booster which had already lapsed due to his former owners not taking him. Lets just say he was not a happy boy and ended up having his first vaccination in the boot of his fosters car and had to have his v

About us

Second Chance Spaniel Rescue was set up by a group of Spaniel loving owners. All at some point have been involved with other rescues and decided to form a group together to help Spaniels. The majority of the admin team have adopted dogs too from previous rescues. Amazingly, amongst us we have over 70 years of experience with rescue dogs with a mixture of issues and through this have gained a mass of knowledge. Our mission is to help as many Spaniels in the UK and abroad when needed, who need a new start with a new home. We aren't here to judge as to the reason why people need to find their dogs a new home, we are just here to help. We are a Foster Home based rescue, based all over the UK. We may look into the potential use of kennels in the future if we need them, but for emergency situations. We are a rescue who Rescue, Assess, Rehabilitate and then Rehome. We are also a non-destructive rescue. We will never put a dog to sleep unless it is upon vet and behaviourist advice. We take every applicant and home on its own merit, we don't have massive blanket bans for example: - If a dog has been with children, assessed fine with children, we will rehome it with children. - If you work, as long as you have a dog walker to pop in and relieve the dog and take him/her out for a walk, we are happy for you to adopt. - If you are older than most rescues permit, please get in touch, as we may have older dogs looking for retirement homes. - If you have other dogs in the home, and one can't be neutered due to medical reasons, again, get in touch, we would be happy to place a neutered dog there. - If you have a cat thats always been around a dog, again, get in touch! - No blanket ban on children of any age. We rely solely on donations & adoption fees to run the rescue.
