Featured dog: Daphne

Breed: Mini Fox Terrier

Gender: female

Age: 15 years and 3 months (2006-01-01)

In care time: 3 weeks

Hi I'm Daphne. You could consider me a pensioner. My approximate age is 15 as assessed by the Pound who described me as a sweet girl. My foster carer totally agrees. I have difficulty seeing and hearing, however I'm getting by, discovering all the nooks and crannies of my foster house and back yard. I get on with the resident and visiting dogs and just potter around all day. I do have a bit of stiffness in the hips however, I walk well on the lead and sleep soundly throughout the night.

Featured horse: Tiny

Breed: Mixed breed

Featured other: Popsicle & Peanut

Breed: mini-lop rabbits

Gender: male

Age: 1 year (2020-04-01)

In care time: 2 weeks

These two boys are great friends who find themselves in need of a loving new home. They are both very friendly and are fine with cuddles. They are used to being around older children who we regularly handling and feeding them. They are used to dogs too. Popsicle is a bit of an escape artist from his pen and can be a little tricky to catch when he's having fun in the garden, but that is very typical of bunnies having a good time. They come desexed and vaccinated and are available as a pair.
