This is Rex when he first came he was falling over on his back legs and his coat needed a good wash and brush.After a couple of weeks he became quite active and could walk as far as you want to take him. The picture on the right is Rex looking a lot better. The couple who adopted Rex drove all the way up from Bracknall a distance of 300 miles to adopt Rex who they had only seen on the Pawz site John met Stuart & Heather at Seaburn Beach where they stayed in the Pullman overnight and the next day they met John on the beach and took Rex home with them a total of 600 miles to give this old boy a home truly Kind Hearts.

Heather & Stuart have always kept in touch and sent photos of Rex to let us know how he is doing apparently with a football he is great Heather says you would think he was a three year old. They have booked a walking type holiday and are looking forward to walks with Rex. Heather sounds so nice I wonder If she would swap a Little Grumpy Bobby for a Rex.John said he does not think so it looks like even Stuart is pushed out of bed sometimes because Heather felt sorry for Rex the first night, and when he crept on to the bed she cuddled him in she said her heart went out to him. Now all we dogs know this is a big mistake for humans to make. You have cracked it when they say okay just for tonight, because you put that sad look in your eyes. I tried it with John it did not work, nor did it for Rex although my bed is at the side of Johns bed so I am quite close.Thank you Heather and Stuart for the way you both put your selves out to take this old boy on, and giving him your love.

Love Little Bobby

Hi Bobby here.

Alfie was here before I came as were a few others but John is telling me about them

This is young Alfie he had an accident and had to have a plastic hip so he always stuck his leg out when he sat down.He was adopted by Ann & Chris to live with there other two dogs, Ash & Alfie got on and became great friends straight away.

They have sent a few pictures of Ash and Alfie since they adopted him 21-10-07 this one I think is great Alfie is determined to sleep with Ash even though she is taking most of the bed . Well isn't that just typical well my Bess would not have done that, he doesn't look comfy to me I would want all the bed. John & I thank you Ann & Chris for giving Alfie a great life and keeping us informed of Alfies progress.

Do not forget I need a home myself I am quite nice(sometimes)

Hi This is little Benji the Yorkie Bess and of course me Grumpy Bobby all asleep after our walk. Then Benji on his own Bess and Benji got homed but poor Benji has come back today. He is ten loves his walks he barks when he wants to go out. He is totally deaf so is walked on an extension lead it is not a problem he does sleep right through the night.

He is a happy dog and walks about waging his tail all the time.

This dog does need an owner who understands that totally deaf means you could shout untill you are blue in the face he will not hear you.

He will be on the pawzforthought.org web site so please look out for him this dog realy needs a Kind Heart Thank you for looking

Hi

This is Sam who had been living with a blind lady, and did not get out, only the house and garden.

When first taken out she was so nervous and just sat down it took a few days before I could see she was relaxing

and enjoying her walk

Above picture is Sam a week later after some brushing and a lot of walks looking much happier.

Sam went to a lovely home in Blaydon

So John and I would like to thank Julie and her family for giving Sam the care and love this dog so deserves.

Dont forget me I need a home too.

HI PIPPA how nice to hear from you all the way from spain you are lucky so much sunshine John and Brenda lived in Benalmadena for five years they told me how hot it was it sounds great, it is so wet here and cold so as you can see if I can get on a chair when the sun shines in I am in heaven. John said there are a lot of animals who need help in spain more even than here.
So I am so pleased that you found two kind Hearts

Cool Hand Luke

Well great to hear from you I have seen those big sort of dog looking things on Seaburn beach they were even carrying people on there backs If anybody tried to get on my back I would take their head off.
They are obviously not very bright or they would walk along with them like we do, not carry them.
You are lucky to have Dave looking after you it was nice living there peaceful sort of normal compared to here just because John has insomnia
This morning he is shouting Molly and I at 0500 to go to the park because we would be first to run in the snow.(Do we care)
Molly and I could not believe it Molly gave a big sigh and curled up I grunted I like to get up late have a nice breakfast then go out. Brenda told him to shut up he went by himself and we all went back to sleep.
Then at eight oclock he took us It was all slushy and cold Molly went after her ball and skided in to the stream, we were both wet and cold John said serves you both right It was nice early on, we just wanted to get back home.
I have been lying by the window with the sun on me now this is the life.
Bye for now Little Bobby

Bess

This is Bess John and I would like to thank Val and her family for giving her a good home with a loving family.

Whats That

Hi

Well yesterday was a funny old day after being dragged out again to please John and it being cold enough to, brass monkeys come to mind. I was cold wet and wanted to be by the fire and he meets a chap on the beach they were chatting away I thought I would never get home.

Then to top it all a walking brush came in last night, well two actually but one went to another foster home.

I did not know what to make of it John told me it was a Yorkie pup it still looked like a mop to me.

Not like my little Bess , Lynne brought her one day and she was a little smasher.

It was love at first sight well on my part the worst thing was I could not hide my feelings my tail would not stop wagging no matter how hard I tried

John said your tail will fall of in a minuet. Bess has lovely tight curls and a gentle face my little heart was thumping..

Johns Folly

Bobby here I have to tell you this while John is not here, It started last night I suppose, after John had come back from Carlisle we all went to the Beach John was throwing the ball for Molly.
Lynne came down with Toby and old George, Toby and I were running about, John was still throwing the ball so when we came home his shoulder was hurting Brenda got the Deep Heat Cream and put some on, then put it on the shelf next to the toothpaste (I bet you can guess)
John cleaned his teeth (well the few he has left) with the Deep Heat Cream) he was going on about Brenda buying horrible toothpaste then he was going on about his tongue and gums burning.
Brenda went in to look what he had used, she came out and said you daft thing you have used Deep Heat I had to turn away I nearly fell over laughing Brenda was too, John wasn't he went back and was cleaning his teeth for ages then he blamed Brenda for putting it in a daft place and she was saying how he should have looked before he used it.
Brenda gave him a coffee and that made his mouth burn even more so he went back to clean his teeth again.
We were all laughing even the grand kids thought it was funny, John was saying it was a pity we had nothing better to laugh at.
Brenda said we have and told everybody about when she was waxing her legs ready for holidays she put the patches on after a face pack, then lay on the bed with cucumber on her eyes, then asked John to pull the wax sheets off, when he did he looked at them and thought part of each had no hair on them so he thought he would use them to take the hair out of his nose and ears.
He stuck one up each nostril and one in each ear Brenda sat up and she looked funny all white with cucumber on her eyes,she took off the cucumber and when she saw what he had done she cracked her face mask laughing and said you daft. that is going to hurt.
John just said if you can put up with it I can, pull one out of my nose SHE DID well talk about an Indian war dance he was running around the bed room tears rolling down his face holding his nose and blaming Brenda for pulling so hard and taking the skin from under his nose, he tried to pull the other one out himself but could not do it trying to pull it gently, so he had to ask Brenda to. I must say she did seem to get some enjoyment out of yanking it off, more war dance and howling and he still had his ears to go.
Brenda's face mask had well and truly cracked now and she could not stop laughing, as she went to pull the ones out of his ears.
He said pull them both at once. I went to the door because as he had two hands cupped over his nose what was he going to put over his ears this could only get worse and it did Brenda got hold of both sides and pulled what a carry on now he was hands on ears nose ears nose, tears still rolling down his checks, then he stood on the cucumber that had been knocked on the floor it squelched between his toes so now he was hopping on one foot and holding his nose and one ear.
Brenda looked funny to me with all this white stuff falling off her face because she could not stop laughing
and John now sitting on the bed did not know what hurt the most the only relief being it was cucumber between his toes he thought it was something I had done (cheek).
Well I went off down stairs in case they decide I need some hair removing I am quite happy with mine thank you.
I just wonder are all humans as daft as these two,
I have well and truly digressed today I was going to tell you about Little Bess but John wants to go out now so will try to get back latter I have to go while the sun shines we got soaked this morning.

A Friend

Hi this is a picture of Jack who I just met today but we became friends and played for a while.
But all too soon he went off with John who told me he had been with Pawz for over a year and now a kind hearted family were going to give him a home.
John took him to Carlisle and was gone a long time, when he came back he said he has a lovely home with really nice people .
I wold like to thank Freda and her family for giving an old dog a home that is going to be his for the rest of his life,
This really is kind Hearts thank you,
don't forget I am still here though and also looking for my forever home..
