~ The gorgeous Basil, AKA Bronko, is our new Old Dog of the Week!

12/08/2024

~ We're sure our lovely supporters are already very careful with their beloved dogs (and other animals) during periods of warmer/hot weather, and know not to leave them in rooms such as conservatories (or enclosed porches) that can get particularly hot, and that shade can disappear from a garden as the day continues too ☀️

If you do NEED to take your dog out during the hotter period of the day, e.g. because you don't have a garden or your dog won't toilet in the garden, then still take them out as early/late as you can, and keep things short and calm with just toileting in mind.

Stick to walking on grass rather than pavement/road as much as possible, and seek out any available 🌳shade 🌳 on your short toilet break.

Please do also put some water out for wildlife if you have anywhere to do so 🦊🦔🦡

We receive many reports about the welfare of animals over the summer months, but we can all do our bit to help our furry, feathered and scaly friends when the weather is warm 🌞

⚠️⚠️⚠️ *URGENT APPEAL* ⚠️⚠️⚠️ to find a GSD-experienced foster home for our gorgeous Max within the next week, to try to avoid having to place him in kennels:
https://www.oldies.org.uk/2024/urgent-appeal-could-you-foster-max-2 🐾

Max is a nine-year-old white German Shepherd Dog who came into Oldies Club care following the death of his previous person. Max loves a car journey, but it is thought that he may have been crated for long hours prior to coming into our care, which has made him very fearful of crates and so he would need to travel behind a dog guard or on the back seat of a vehicle, in a suitable harness.

Oldies Club will arrange transport of Max to his next foster home and continue to cover all approved veterinary bills while Max is in our foster care.

Max loves his walks, particularly when they involve water, such as a dip in a stream or pond. He is walked on a long lead by his current fosterers. He needs to be kept away from livestock.

Max took a while to settle into his current foster home, but once settled his wonderful, affectionate nature came through. He has lived happily with another large dog until recently, so could potentially share his foster home with another large canine, but he can be a bit shouty if he sees another dog when out on a walk. He could live with sensible, dog-friendly teenagers who are used to large dogs. As far as we know, he has no experience of cats.

Max would love a home with plenty of interesting things going on, as he is an inquisitive, intelligent boy. He's looking for a home with plenty of space and a large, secure garden. He has suffered with ear problems and has daily tablets to help with this. He is very frightened at the vets and groomers.

We are initially, urgently, seeking a foster home for Max, but would be very happy to hear from anyone wanting to foster him with a view to adoption, thus making him a forever part of your family. If you are not that experienced person(s), please help spread the word. Thank you! :-)

~ Our new Old(ish) Dog of the Week is Femo, a handsome and cheerful English Pointer:
https://www.oldies.org.uk/2024/femo-rovers-dog-rescue-fostered-essex-2 🐾

Femo is nine years old and has adapted incredibly well to the home comforts of a multi-dog foster home, having previously been a stud dog. We're told he loves a snuggle on the sofa with his fosterer 💤

Femo would love to find humans of his very own. Might you be that person/family? He has huge enthusiasm for life and just wants to have fun! He loves the car and exploring the great outdoors is his favourite thing 🌳✨🌳

Femo's rescue tells us he's a gentle, goofy, happy dog who is looking for an active family, and will happily live with other dogs and confident cats. We're also told that he's great with childen of all ages, so its thought he'd be fine with dog-friendly resident youngsters, as long as they were able to cope with bit of a goofball of a dog. He is very food-oriented and will counter-surf, given the chance. He can be left for reasonable amounts of time.

Please see Femo's page for more photos and rehoming info for this handsome boy and please direct any adoption enquiries to his rescue, Rovers Dog Rescue, directly, via the contact details at the bottom of his page:

~ Little Bobby is our new Old Dog of the Week! We would really appreciate your help in finding him a forever home 🩶🤍🖤
https://www.oldies.org.uk/2024/adventure-loving-bobby-oldies-club-fostered-dorset 🐾

Bobby is a 14-year-old Patterdale x Jack Russell Terrier, who came into Oldies Club care when his previous person had to go into a care home. Bobby is looking for a home that is all on one level, with easy access to the garden, i.e. a bungalow or ground-floor flat, as he has weak back legs and can't manage stairs easily.

Bobby is looking for a wonderful forever home where there is someone with him practically all the time. He will need to sleep on his person's bed. He is fine with other dogs on walks, generally greeting them happily, but hasn't lived with other dogs before and is looking to be the only animal in his forever home. He is a cheerful, gentle soul and could live with dog-friendly children aged 10-plus and should be okay with younger visiting children, as long as they are carefully supervised, of course. He is looking for a home without cats.

Bobby loves car rides and would definitely want to accompany his person somewhere rather than be left home alone, which is upsetting for him. He loves going out on adventures 🌳 with his people, although he does need encouragement if it's raining! He's well-behaved and steady on walks and takes other dogs, joggers and traffic in his stride. He is kept on a long lead for walks and also has a doggie buggy, should he get a little tired during a walk 💤

Bobby loves snuggles on the sofa and will have a brief play with a toy. He enjoys lovely walks with plenty of opportunity to have a good sniff 🌳 and is then happy to settle down near his person ✨

Please see Bobby's page for more photos and rehoming info on our sweet boy. If, after reading through it all, you feel you can offer him a loving and suitable forever home, please get in touch with us via the contact details given at the end of his page:
