❤️🐶HAPPY GOTCHA DAY!🐶❤️
On the 25th September 2019, the lovely Eddy was adopted. Eddy (previously known as Lion) was abandoned on the streets of Portugal with his three other siblings. They were cared for brilliantly by our partner organisation in Portugal, and on the 19th September last year, he began his journey with his brother to the UK! He was then adopted by a lovely family living in Fleet. 🐾
We asked Eddy's adopters for an update and this is what they said:
"Eddy has grown into a handsome and confident dog. He still loves children (especially girls!) and other dogs. People often come over to ask what breed he is and say how beautiful he is. He has a magnificent tail reminiscent of a fox’s brush and is athletic and a very fast runner. He is also smart and has benefitted from attending regular puppy and obedience classes.
We are about to take him away for his first holiday to a dog friendly cottage in Wales. We are looking forward to the walks and the beaches and enjoying them anew with Eddy. He has been a great addition to our family, thank you Dogs n Homes for pairing him with us."
Fun times ahead for Eddy! It's great to hear that he's enjoying his puppy and obedience classes, and we are sure he is absolutely going to love his first holiday! We want to say a huge thank you to his adopters for welcoming him into their family, and we wish them a very happy 1st gotcha anniversary! 🥰🐶🥳

Although it's uncertain if Bonfire Night events will take place this year, Fireworks can often scare and traumatise dogs.
A way to prevent your dog from getting stressed is through sound desensitisation.
It is a proven way of managing sound related unwanted behaviours in dogs that involves exposing your pet to various noises in a controlled way.
It is recognised to be successful in helping pets become less sensitive to sounds and noises such as fireworks, thunder and lightning.
For the process to work effectively, you should start weeks or even months before a potential stressful event.
You can follow the sound desensitisation program here: zylkenepet.co.uk/sound-desensitisation/
